Which transducer would be best for TM 2D and down imaging with the Onix 10 at the bow?

Solix need to know cables to hook to high speed transducer in hull XP 9 20
14 m SIDB Y and AD 1429
Is this the correct cables ??

had issue updating my Onix 10 to 3.23 software. i verified 3.04 was already installed. update was loading and the display just dropped out. nothing. i could tell it had power b/c the button lights were lit up. unplugged power, started it back up. display starts to load like normal on start up. then it just disappears. it won't start up so i can get to a previous version. can anyone help with this before i have to call Monday?
If the software update was working correctly, the unit shuts down and restarts after the update is loaded. If you screwed up by messing with the unit while the whole process is on-going, it has to be sent in to be re-programmed.
If your software download was incomplete or corrupt, the same has to be done.

New issue, Onix (both 8 and 10) does not recognize navionics chip. says no SD card when in both. I took a brand new card out of package and tried it, nothing. tried both locked and unlocked on card. if i put in a lakemaster card it sees it. some of the lakes i fish don't have 1 foot contours on lakemaster or i would just use the lakemaster. restored defaults and still nothing. tried units networked and non networked. if happened yesterday fishing. i was working and then it disappeared. got to a setting or something or software. anyone had this issue?
Sometimes the ONIX will not recognize a Navionics card unless it has done so before. The Navionics card should be locked. Being locked or not has nothing to do with a unit reading it. Locked is Write Protect.
Two things to try:
1. After the unit is operating, put the card in and if it doesn't recognize it, remove and re-insert.
2. With the Navionics card inserted, go to the Setup menu, Chart tab and select Navionics.
Once the Navionics card is recognized and you want to view the Sonar Charts map layer, you have to select Menu and Options, then put a check mark beside Sonar Charts.

Hi Wayne, tried multiple times pulling out re inserting. Tried both units both slots in each, both cards. Both units are not recognizing the card. have run the card in these units before with no issues.

New Onix 10 GPS/Sonar question. This unit is not adjusting the auto depth for sonar. sometimes i have 30 ft of data in 4 ft of water. with that you can't see any detail b/c your only seeing a small portion. like 5 - 30 ft is earth. weird. i have verified its on auto adjust.
thanks
