0 Cliff Wagenbach Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I suggest that you call Lowrance at their toll free number. They will have the answer to your question! Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Satchmo Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 You can link the two X15's together with the network data cables using a simple 16-2 wire. This will allow the master unit on the dash to export the GPS data to the slave unit on the bow. You may not, however, save waypoints on the bow unit. That would require you to have another module. The X15 units are not NMEA 2000 compalible, so you can't use the NMEA network cable and you may not network the newer NMEA units to the older units with the NMEA cable. You must use the colored data cable connections and program the units. It really is not as complicated as it sounds. Just email me at [email protected] and I'll talk you through it.

0 PerchJerker Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 You would need a map chip in each unit, or would need to move your chip between units depending on which one you wanted to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
