can i run a mega di unit with a megs di / si transducer? i believe it will work but want to be sure before i buy a new transducer. I have two units one is a Mega DI the other is a Mega DI/SI i cut the DI transducer cable and need to get a new one so thought maybe I just get the SI/DI transducer and then can switch the units positions on the boat if I wanted to?
Which models?
i have helix 10's one is the mega di g2 the other is mega g3 si/di
Not that simple with those two models.

You missed the whole point, it’s about connecting a unit that does 83/200 kHz to a transducer with a HW piezo. It makes no difference if the HW is via Y cable or in the Transducer. Read it again until you understand the consequences.Quote:
