Guys:

I have a buddy that is moving his HDS7 to the bow and getting a new HDS10 for the dash.

The guy installing it is telling him that the default transducer will be the one in the back of the boat for the dash.

So EVERY time he drops the trolling motor in the bow, he will have to change the default to the transducer on the trolling motor. And then when he stows the trolling motor and goes back to the dash he will have to change that one back.

Seems like alot of work to me.

Also, when musky fishing and he is driving with the bow mount trolling motor, obviously he is using the bow transducer. But I like to look at the dash to see how deep it is in the back of the boat where I am fishing.

So, 2 questions:

1) Is there a way solve the issue of having to change between the 2 transducers everytime you drop the trolling motor?
2) Is there a way for him to have the depth on the bow from the transducer up there and me to have the depth in the back on the dash?

This has never been an issue before because we didn't have the units networked to work with each other.

Thanks
