    Echomap Map Sharing

    Is there any possible way to share waypoints between 3 Echomap units? I want to add another unit in the dash to have dedicated to mapping, but would like to be able to share the waypoints with my other two units.

    Interesting. You might try splicing the data wire to the 3rd unit and see what happens.

    Yeah I'm trying to find out before I purchase a new unit. I may get a different brand unit for different mapping if I can't share waypoints from it anyway.

    No. EchoMAP wpt sharing only works between two units.

    I wonder how a unit would know if it was sending a message to one or three.

    I was kind of thinking if you put the Browns and blues from 2 of the graphs together, and then wired them to your main graph like that, that they would both be able to receive waypoints from the main graph, and they would just not be able to share between each other. Would be interesting to hear some feedback on if anyone has tried that or not.
