Member Posts: 13 Location: WI | I recently networked two hds 8 units together. I have a couple questions. (1) When I turn the units on, do I have to set anything up in the menu on either unit or is it all automatic once the ethernet cable is connected ? (2) Will my waypoints from my first unit appear on my new unit or do I have to download them,with a sd card ? Thanks! | ||

Thanks Guys, I turned each unit on, turned my structure scan on and they did transfer automatically. | |||

Member Posts: 1991 | Glas to hear that it worked, when networked together they will share waypoints without having to transfer them by SD card | ||

Member Posts: 1040 Location: Stevens Point, WI | That is right, I was thinking the old LCX units. Those you have to have both units on for the waypoint to appear. | ||

So I have a related question. I've been running a 38HD and have a ton of waypoints on it. I'm adding a HDS-7 and HDS-8 I want to network all of them together with LSS-1. What do I need to do to tranfer my waypoints from my 38HD to both new HDS units? Is it card from 38 to one HDS unit then one will synch to the other or since all 3 will be hooked up they all synch together. Thx | |||
