 :help:

I have installed a Lowrance 520C in my front console and have a completely different finder mounted on my trolling motor.  I have a Lowrance 332c minus the GPS puck that I would like to mount on my trolling motor, and would like to know if there is a way where I can link the GPS from 520 to my 332.  ~b~ ~b~ :-\ If this is possible can someone let me know where to find the instructions.

Thanks

It can be done. You have 2 ways of doing this, NEMA 0183 or NEMA 2000. The 0183 is the old way of doing things and you are limited as to what you can share and it's the cheapest (using existing wires). The only thing you can share the old way is the gps puck. The 2000 way you will have to spend some extra money to get a network started but it's better than the old way. You can share the gps puck, waypoints and other senors that you may add to the network in the future. In your 520c manual, there should be some illustrations on that, althought they are not the best. Leave me a message and i can send you some information and pics via email.
