Networking your Humminbird Helix units allows you to share waypoints, routes, and other data between devices. Here’s how to set up and manage your network effectively.
-
Setting Up the Network: Begin by connecting your Helix units via Ethernet cables or a wireless adapter. Ensure all units are powered on and connected.
-
Sharing Waypoints: Once connected, you can share waypoints between units. This is particularly useful if you’re using multiple screens on your boat, such as one at the console and another at the bow.
-
Managing Network Sources: Go to the Network Source Setup menu to configure which unit controls specific data, such as sonar, GPS, or transducer input. This allows you to customize how information is displayed across your network.
-
Troubleshooting: If you encounter issues, check the network status and ensure all cables are properly connected. You can also reset the network settings if needed.
Networking your Helix units provides seamless data sharing and control, enhancing your fishing efficiency and ensuring you have the information you need at your fingertips. Make sure to checkout Fishfinder Coach to get all the best settings for your fishfinder.
