Can someone that has a HELIX 7 DI check in the "Connected Transducer" Menu under the Sonar tab to see if there's an option for "DI + 83/200" ...??

Rickie, send me 1 and I'll be glad to let you know about that. :Rofl
Hey, Rickie! I contacted Humminbird about this and here is the scoop:
The upgrade xducer for this unit is a XTM 9 WIDE DI 20T
The part # is 710235-1
The rep says it has a wider cone, a lower profile to prevent snagging and will be advantage to drop-shot, jigging and I would expect it would be good for spider rigging and power trolling in deeper water. jmo
If you decide to upgrade, she says include a note with Ref # 101012678.
This is straight form the "Bird's mouth"!
Rickie, you better archive this 'cause I sho ain't gonna remember it!!
Cray, you were right about this.
The difference in cost is $30 + tax, and I'm assuming AL sales tax.
Agreed.
I asked our favorite ace CRC gal about the new XI 9 1521 Chirp low Q iceducer (130-250kHz) and if a S/W update would be done for the H7DIG2N.
I could then use it double duty on the ice and the boat when the new S/W version is complete...
I'm hopeful, but wanna see some menu selections me'sef too!~!
rickie ,I have a helix 9 di but it do not have 83 on it,wish it did,i thought all had that,if it would be what you want to know on that unit ,I could look
Rickie, I will have my new Helix 7 DI from Brian on Monday or Tuesday. That is the first thing I'll check when I hook it up and I will let you know.
rickie,i know you are wanting to know about 7 but I went to see if mine had setting for 83 with 200 and it does like you said,mine came with sonar 200 and 455 so now I will have to get a 200 and 83 ducer,do not know the purpose of 455 on sonar:dono,maybe it elimate a pizzo?
