WCCT Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I am going to install 2 new units, one with gps in my boat. I think I am going to go with this "backbone" setup. I understand the basics of it, but I am not sure if I still need 2 transducers or not. Can my units share one? I am also putting in a temp sensor, and possibly a fuel sensor as well. I hope these work as good as they claim to. Quote
striperone Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 From what I'm hearing they (lowrance) have been having major issue's with the temp guage/sending units using the backbone setup's? So much so that they can't get the temps to read on the graph... You may look further into it before you invest. I don't have that setup personally, it is just what I have heard. Quote
northgabassfisher Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 i do not have the fuel sensor, but i do have the temp sensor and i have had no problem yet. and yes you can put two graphs on one xducer and on one gps module, by use the T connectors Quote
bigshooter Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 i have the fuel sensor and it is very accurate. if you want to share actual graph display, the lowrance-net will not do that, but they will share digital depth readings. if you want to "share" a ducer and get actual graph type readings you will have to get a switch to change back and forth from each graph.
