    Setting up my new ride????

    My new ride has Helix 9 mdi+ front and 9 msi+ console. I will be adding a mega 360 transducer to the front. Should I add another helix 9 mdi+ to the front to use for mapping and give myself the whole screen on the other unit for 360 just to see better? If I do that, will a additional di transducer on the tm mess with the 360?

    If you split up the screen with a combo 360 view, it will be very small in a 9" display.

    You do not need two transducers for two units. Just connect both bow units to the DI transducer and the MEGA 360 via the MEGA 360 Y cable and share what you want to the other unit via Ethernet. Turn Sonar OFF on the unit without a transducer connected.

    This is a Helix 12 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N with the MEGA 360 and a DI+ transducer connected to it. AND a Helix 10 CHIRP MEGA DI+ GPS G3N with no transducer connected to it.
