3. Configuring the Ethernet Network
Set up your Humminbird® Ethernet Network using the following instructions,
including these topics:
1. Network Setup Overview
2. Customize the Unit Name
3. Select Data Sources (transducer, temperature, GPS receiver)
for each control head
4. Understand the Shared and Local Menu Settings
5. Share Navigation Data
Configuration Overview
Connected units can detect the other control heads and sources on the
network. When the units are connected for the first time, the sources
(transducer, temperature, and GPS) default to Local operation.
Local (default): The source reports data only to the connected control
head.
Shared: The source is set up to report data to both control heads in the
network so that they share the same data.
It is important to note that when a source is shared on the network,
the source’s data will be synchronized between units. The Menu
System and View Rotation will change to match the shared
source’s capabilities. Alarms and Navigation also operate
differently when they are shared. Review each source section to
understand how a shared source will affect your Fishing System.
