You'd have a tough time creating Auto Chart maps on the ice! But yes the Helix series can run Auto Chart on any of the GPS units.
I don;t think the HELIX series is Auto Chart Live compatible. The ONIX series is the only one I know of. I looked on their website, and the Auto Chart Live symbol wasn't present on the HELIX 5 or 7.
I bought the helix si this summer and want to try it on the ice. Do I use the transducer that came with it, or do I use the one from my ice45. Any suggestions on pack/case.. I had it mounted to my ice45 mount for the kayak this summer but it isn't a great fit.
can the helix 5 be used with a ram mount?
Yankee Troller is correct. The ICE 35, 45, 55 flasher transducer does not work with any of the digital Humminbird units. You need the XI 9 20 transducer, or you can use the boat/skimmer transducer that came with it. The ice transducer is worth getting though, instead of using the boat transducer, in my opinion.
does the helix 5 have different screens for different functions? Wondering if the gps has it's own screen so it could be used mounted on the dash of a snowmobile on my way to places I've saved, then taken inside the shanty and use as a FF. thanks
