Networking Question

Will a unit that does not have side imaging show the side imaging display if it is networked to a unit that does?

No. Sonar data is currently not shared by the Interlink system. Interlink shares GPS position, waypoints, routes, and weathersense data.

Are you talking HB or Lowrance? I believe the Lowrance product has that capability when the two units are linked by a ethernet cable. But I am no expert , I just remember reading that somewhere. Hope this helps!

Since this is the Humminbird forum, I assumed has was asking about ‘birds.

Jason, Another question for you: I want to use a 917 on the bow and have that linked to a 998 on the console. I also want a second base on the console for the 917. Do I need 2 interlink modules or a service link cable?

thanks for all your help

Hey Jason! You there?

An extra interlink system won’t allow you to connect the three stations, even though only two are occupied at the same time. A system link cable will allow two units to share one GPS puck.

Jason, I’m thinking of getting bigger screen unit, if I move my 797C2 SI to the bow, will that set up allow SI images from back unit to interlink to the 797. I have the universal transducer on my MinKota and I don’t really think I want to put the SI transducer on the trolling motor. Thanks
