    Default DI from trolling motor and SI from transducer on stern


    Gents ... this has probably been answered elsewhere ... but I have a Terrova 80 w/ Mega DI transducer ... and a HELIX 10 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N ...
    at the bow on my 18 ft pontoon ... I want to be able to get the Mega DI from the 'ducer in the Terrova and be able to get SI from the transducer on the stern.

    What do I need to rig that up?

    There is no Y cable to allow DI from one xducer and SI from a different xducer to 1 display (except the Y cable used exclusively with MEGA 360) ...

    It is possible to have each xducer connected to a separate display and then share DI and/or SI independently thru Ethernet ..

    How about the 9 M SIDBY cable? It has one leg marked DI and one SI.

    The 9 M SIDB Y cable splits of the 2d wires to allow getting 2d information from a separate xducer capable of 2d ...

    The wires legs are labeled SI (side imaging) and DB (Dual Beam 2d) ...

    Using a 2 head unit setup :

    *Each head unit has an xducer attached ...
    *HELIX units - each head unit needs an AS EC QDE Ethernet adapter cable https://humminbird.johnsonoutdoors.c...-adapter-cable
    *One ethernet cable between the 2 head units https://humminbird.johnsonoutdoors.c...letype%3A27016

    Then watch this
