I have an HDS 5 on the bow and an HDS 8 at the console. I have an LSS2 and an external antenna for the console unit. I want to share waypoints and maps between the two but I want each unit to use their own transducer and gps antenna. Is this possible?

Yes you have to go to the menue and select networking and change sonar to "this unit" on both units. Same thing with temp probes ,GPS pucks. They will share waypoints when you power up both units and lss unit automaticaly. but you can not share a map card. unless someone know a trick to doing it?

Thank you guys for responding. I am going to try your advice today. I would definitely love to hear about it if anyone knows how to share the map chip.
