HUMMINBIRD HELIX 9 DOWNLOAD
If you’d like to share the data you capture using AutoChart Live with your friends, simply transfer the SD card from your fish finder to another or download to a device and send the data. Almost 3,000 waypoints can be permanently saved on this unit. For example, you may want to return to a location at a later date, so you can drop a waypoint and know that you will be able to find that exact location again. Users can also drop waypoints in locations they want to mark using this feature. The HELIX 9 comes with 8 hours of storage for AutoChart Live maps, but the HELIX 9 also includes two SD slots such that users can potentially record as many hours as they desire. Turning on the AutoChart Live feature (found in the ‘chart options’ menu) allows users to map the depth, vegetation, and bottom hardness of a region in real time, while in motion (up to 15 mph), and save it for future use. Thanks to boosted processing power compared to previous HELIX models, the HELIX 9 provides real-time imaging as you go. Users can select from two search options: wide mode, which gives maximum coverage, and narrow mode, for maximum detail. CHIRP works by directing waves of various strengths at an area, then processing the waves that bounce back to give users the clearest readings possible. With Dual Spectrum CHIRP sonar equipped, users can see individual fish, discern bait and structure, and gather data over greater depths and range. MEGA Down Imaging+ allows you to see up to 200 feet below your boat. Like the MEGA Side Imaging+ feature, the MEGA Down Imaging+ feature provides 20% more detail than MEGA Down Imaging Sonar. This finder is both bright enough and large enough to see details clearly from any part of your boat at any time of day. After all, what’s the use of having a finder if what it displays isn’t in good resolution? The MEGA Side Imaging+ feature provides 20% more detail than MEGA Side Imaging Sonar. This unit provides crystal-clear images of your surroundings out to 200 feet on each side.
