Fixes:
- Increased target sensitivity in the water column on DownScan
- Some users reported their DownScan not reacquiring the bottom after running on plane, we have improved DownScan bottom lock search to remedy this
- HDS users with HDI transducers connected to Channel 1 have reported no DownScan data showing on screen, this has been corrected
- Added the ability to stop the traditional sonar but continue to ping the DownScan and SideScan from a single transducer
- Some deleted routes were leaving segments on the chart after being deleted, this has been remedied
- Some HDS Live displays were not automatically enabling LiveSight features when powered up with a transducer connected, this has been resolved
