3. Configuring the Ethernet Network

Set up your Humminbird® Ethernet Network using the following instructions, including these topics:

1.Network Setup Overview2.Customize the Unit Name

3.Select Data Sources (transducer, temperature, GPS receiver) for each control head

4.Understand the Shared and Local Menu Settings5.Share Navigation DataConfiguration 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.
