Yeah, it's that Lowrance guy again lol...
So have searched back and think I have a handle on this, but figured I better get a 2nd set of eyes on it...
From my previous threads recall I have added Helix 12 MDI G4N and Mega 360. I am now considering adding a smaller ie 9 or 10" Helix to the bow as well, primarily for map and 2D/DI from MDI on Trolling Motor.
* I understand map card does not share, so a VX map card would only be viewable on the smaller unit.
* I have the Y cable for the 360 and MDI xdcr's, which I would connect to the 12" G4N.
* Then I would run ethernet cable (AS EC 15E - overkill, but I already have one) from the 12" to the smaller unit, but would need AS EC QDE Ethernet Adapters for each unit? And no hub would required since only two units. This would allow me to see the DI/2D from the MDI connected to the 12 G4N on the smaller unit.
* Typically I have all my units connected to my NEMA network, and would add both Helix's as well - since there are seperate network and NEME ports, I expect there is no issue with this?
And lastly, is there a restriction on what model/series you can network, ie I have G4N, do I have to get another G4N, or could I add a G2N or G3N? (always looking for a good deal :).
Am I missing anything, any parts or pieces?
