Thanks. Info sent.

I made the mistake when I tried to update my helix 7 G3N of not downloading the basemap. Now its gone, is there any way to reset, or upload a basemap? I'm behind on updates, and I don't want to...

I got burned by this. I had an Ethernet cable that was just a bit too short for the run I was trying to make. I knew I had the 30' from the TM thought I could swap them. Found out after I had...

Well I was playing around with it again. This time the VHF actually was able to grab some satellites and get a fix in the garage. When that happened the VHF was shown as a source for GPS under the...

Hi guys.

I'm trying to figure out if the helix will plot a DSC position reply on the chart.

I have a NMEA network and a G4N Helix plugged directly into the network. I am able to read data from...

Not sure how that is relevant. I would bet the 30' ethernet cable was also in existence long before the I-link.

In the end I got what I needed after pulling 3 different cables. I started with...

Why did humminbird and MinnKota not keep the same connector at the device? I bought an ethernet cable that ended up being a little short. I knew I had a 30' in the boat from the trolling motor that...

Will the G4 output NMEA data to earlier Generations? If I hook NMEA directly to the G4N can I show motor data on a G3N?

Ok, maybe my wording wasn't very precise. However my statement "The subsribee is doing the signal processing" appears correct per your response. So, if a Gen4 unit is sharing its data and the...

Thanks Wayne. I was aware the minor difference between Gen3/4. I was hoping to learn how a 1st or 2nd generation compares. The humminbird compatibility chart shows the G4N transducer can share MSI...

How is the image clarity for older generations vs the g3/g4 units? I have a 9" G4N MSI at my helm and I want to share the transducer with a larger 10-12" screen. Considering a used unit from here...

Do a test drill in a piece of wood first to check if all the connectors will pass. You may not need as large a hole as you think.

I have a 9" helix g4n MSI and per the specs it has 1kw rms output. I have the MSI transducer mounted on the step and the transom mount for high speed 2d. I was thinking about upgrading to an Airmar...

So the auto-pilot and spot lock are not available through the X-press menu, but cruise control is? That doesn't seem well thought out to me, but it appears to be correct. I don't understand why they...

Not sure what you mean by under navigation. It was on the same screens on the sonar. One image I had the ipilot controls turned on taking up permanent real estate on the screen. The other with it...

I am aware that the Ipilot function is not available when stowed. I was using it then picked up and went to another spot. Redeployed and the option wasn't available. When moving spot to spot...

I have a terrova I pilot with a 9" G4N and a 7" G3N and the autopilot is amazing when it works. Last time out I lost the ability to use the autopilot. I tried turning off the terrova even...
