    Default Helix 5 Chirp DI GPS G2


    I just bought this Helix 5 Chirp DI GPS G2 from BBG Marine. Great service. The transducer is a XNT 9 DI T.
    Which transducer part number should I ask for to do an exchange upgrade?
    Thanks in advance.

    Where are you mounting the transducer?

    For the trolling motor, you would want the XTM 9 DI 25 T. It has more shielding than the XNT. If the Helix 5 supported the XTM 9 WIDE DI 20 T, I would recommend that one because it has more coverage area....but I don't think the Helix 5 supports that one.

    Exchange it before you open the mounting hardware.

    Check the Connected Transducer "Menu" under the Sonar tab to see if there is a selection for "Di+200/83" ...

    If that selection is available - your HELIX 5 DI can also use the XTM 9 WIDE DI 20 T ...
