Helix 9 + ipilot Link

[Petras]

Finally go the boat all rigged up. I'm wondering if there is an adapter that I can buy so that I can hook both the transom mounted ducer, and the trolling motor ducer up at the same time? I've already got the US2 extension and adapter installed, basically just need to know if I can get a splitter to hook both ducers up at the same time, or do I have to keep unplugging and switching between the two every time I get up and make a run?
I know there's Ethernet setups that accomplish what I'm wanting to do, but I was hoping to do it without having to buy the Ethernet switch etc...
I should add that it's the Helix 9 DI GPS unit

Yes, you are right! It's a humminbird splitter for like $35 or so!

Then I think I'm your menu settings you choose which transducer to use

That's how I think it works, but I'd double check with humminbird to be sure!

Go to Walleye Central and pose the question to Jason Halfen. He is the H-bird guru.

Thanks guys, I will check out Jason on WC. I know they make splitters but everything I have found is for connecting a dual beam and a side imaging duce or for connecting 2 different side imaging ducers. I'll check out Jason and see what he has to say
