Navico announces the BETA release of software version 2.4.2 for the Lowrance LMS, X and LCX series of products and the LBS-1 sold since 2007. This update addresses issues some customers have reported with their digital depth reading flashing or the sonar chart stopping scrolling, typically in very shallow water with thick weed coverage.

Please note this release is still undergoing rigorous validation procedures, and is currently being made available as a BETA only for customers experiencing this specific issue. Customers not experiencing this issue should not update their units.

To apply this update:
1. Follow the download and installation instructions on the Lowrance website, at
http://www.lowrance.com/en/Downloads...ftware-Updates

2. When running your boat in shallow water under 60 ft, ensure the unit is in shallow water mode.

To enable shallow water mode:
1. When viewing a sonar page, press the MENU button to open the Sonar Menu and select Sonar Features…

2. In the Fishing Mode drop-down box, ensure Shallow water is selected.
