FYI: Owners of 798, 997, and 1197 units should see a new S/W version in their accounts, that now has down imaging. Simular mode will have to do for a few months.

To everyones surprise, this also includes the older 797 which was previously said to not have enough memory for the DI mod. Even if you don't have a SI unit there have been a number of features added.

My 788ci is not a SI unit so will the DI work? If not, what other feature is add on for this model? Thanks.

DI uses data from Si, so your unit will not have DI. From memory, other changes included: Switchfire mode, more color palletes, support for Lake Master charts, faster GPS position updates, some waypoint management features, plus bug fixes.

I found the side imaging very useful but hard to read at first. This will be even better. I am now VERY happy that I the Hummingbird 797 over the Lowrance models.
