    Split Screening 360

    Does anyone run a split screen 360/map on a single unit? I've heard issues with running 2D and 360 at the same time on the same unit, though interested to see how guys like the map/360 split. Reason I'm asking is because I'm purchasing a boat with a helix 10 and garmin with livescope up front and am strongly considering adding 360. I think having 3 graphs up front will be excessive (and maybe get in the way), so am trying to see if split screening 360 is a good idea. Thanks!

    I use split screen map/m360 and 2d/m360 on occasion. No problems I've noticed, but I will zoom in 2x-4x on M360 when using split screen.

    No problem if the same unit is doing both with the transducers just connected to it.



    I prefer not to since I want the largest display of 360.



    So I display other stuff on another unit.

    The split screen is too small for my liking so I’ll be adding a second Solix up front.

    I've thought about a second up front. But a helix 12 dedicated to the 360 mega might be money better spent

    I like the 360 split with DI (30% screen) to pick up fish in the water column and 2D and map on the second head unit.
