    Ready for system upgrade

    Current system:
    1198 at console
    1199 at bow
    5 port ethernet switch
    Ulterra trolling motor with I-pilot link 2017

    Planned upgrade:
    HELIX 12 CHIRP MEGA SI GPS G2N at console
    HELIX 12 CHIRP GPS G2N at bow using the universal transducer in the Ulterra

    Will I be able to view the SI/DI from the console unit at the bow? The specs list 360 as an option so I am thinking this may work.

    Any other recommendations, or possible issues with this set up?

    With the GPS G2N model, you will be able to share all from the console unit. BTW, the 360 option isn't applicable to the capability to share...just indicates the unit is compatible with that model.

    You can view the 360 on both units at the same time. It is not listed as cross-sharing since it is not a unit transducer port connected transducer, it is an Ethernet accessory.

    This is the 360 displayed on my Helix 12, SOLIX 12, and ONIX 10 connected via the Ethernet Switch.
