I am wondering if it could be related to the issue raised in this thread. The simple way to test would be to zoom out and see if the raster appears.

I have seen this a couple of times when using the "highlight depth" feature. It seems something goes wrong in IMC, leaving the whole map with the highlight-colour? Both times it happened, I generated a new map with IMC and the new version was ok. (I have HDS Gen 1, HDS Gen 2 and Simrad NSS Evo 2.) This is one of the reasons I always check that the map works before I go fishing. :)

That's a good point - and that pink colour could well be the depth-highlight, if you have selected this option.
One thing to be aware of is that the depth-highlight is (has to be) shown on top of the background raster. This means that you may need to de-select the "Depth Highlight" chart category so that it is hidden - you then select just the depth-range you want to see, using the depth-specific sub-categories. Also note that since the depth-highlight is a vector-over-raster, it is important to make sure that the at5.xml file is copied along with the large.at5 file, and that the at5.xml is the correct one - i.e. the one that was generated at the same time as large.at5.

1) 2/D or Shaded Relief View, no change.
(Area) Depth Area-All On
(Area) Depth Highlight-Off or On, no change

Sorry - missed the update to this thread!

It's a curious one - it looks to me like you have vector areas, so these are likely obscuring any shaded relief you have and this could be the issue.
What you could try, which might help get to the bottom of this, is to change your project to raster mode, so you don't have any isobaths at all (just contours). Then export this as Shaded relief via a preset style onto a new/empty memory card, just to eliminate the possibility that there is another at5 map somewhere on the card that is also showing.
You should then end up with a map that has only contours and shaded relief, with no possibility of anything obscuring it. Even if this isn't exactly how you want your finished map, it should still be a useful diagnostic exercise.

This worked!!
I started from scratch. When I unchecked ALL depth highlight selections on HDS setting, there was beautiful map!
You have by far the best customer service I have ever seen.
Loving Reefmaster and my friends do too!
