    ECHOMAP Plus 92sv/93sv/94sv/95sv software version 6.00
    as of March 15, 2018

    Changes made from version 5.20 to 6.00:
    Added sonar sharing between multiple ECHOMAP PLUS 7/9 units when connected via Garmin Marine Network.
    Added user data sharing between multiple ECHOMAP PLUS 7/9 units when connected via Garmin Marine Network.
    Added support for four languages: Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Slovakian.
    Power up in the last powered down page.
    Added support for GCV blackbox sounders via Garmin Marine Network.
    Various translation and keyboard fixes.

    Looks like the data sharing on the network between the 7 & 9 is the big item in the update.

    Wwooohhhoooooo! !
    Thanks mean_dean!
    I deleted all waypoints on one of my units, hooked Ethernet cable up, went to maps - all waypoints automatically synced!
    I then went to side imaging on unit not hooked up to the transducer, it showed what it could while out of the water. This is gonna Rock!!!
    Weather man is calling for 40° and rain tomorrow, I was going to do some honey do's when I get off work in the morning, note the word "was". Gonna have to go fishing instead, and see how it really works.

    Download looks like it works on ActiveCaptain but if you go into Garmin's site under echomap Plus 93sv and click software it won't find it. Go in using echomap Plus 92sv and you'll get to the right page. Same software.
    My wife asks if I'm going to fish every day. I can't fish every day. Some days I might be sick.

    So now if I have two 9 inch EchoMap Plus units and a Panoptix PS 22 and I want to network them I need a Port Expander that will accept all 3 Ethernet cables correct? Wanting to make sure before I buy the quipment.

    Per a post from Todd, the ethernet hub will be needed to share if you dont have enough ports....i mentioned that in a post i made so i'll try to find it.....

    Yes, but I'd be sure to get the new one that does the UHD.

    Went today,oh yeah! SI on one screen, DI on the other, or any combo you want.
    Now I just have to figure out what lure to put in front of them.
    Unrelated question- is their a depth offset? For SI, or DI depth readings.
