    Default Helix Network and Legacy Sonar Splitter for Thru Hull 2d Puck for High Speeds


    I was hooking up the new units into the old network cables today (old network- 859 and 999) and I ran into the 2 d sonar splitter. The helix transducer plugged into my spliter so I am assuming it is the correct splitter. Is it? I hate to loose the 2D chirp on console but I see no option since 2d hook thru puck IS required for high speeds. Do I have any options?

    The AS SIDB Y Cable used with previous core series HB units will not work with MEGA units (there is no DI channel in the AS SIDB Y Cable) ...

    MEGA units need the 9 M SIDB Y cable ...

    You do not lose CHIRP by using any of the HB Y cables ... CHIRP is a function of the head unit - and will CHIRP any xducer attached ...

    Thanks Rickie. I didn't know that but I did think I was a couple pegs short. Don't say it...
