Sonar Humminbird Helix 9 CHIRP MEGA DI+ GPS G4N

Humminbird Helix 9 CHIRP MEGA DI+ GPS G4N Sonar

The Helix 9 CHIRP MEGA DI+ GPS G4N is a state-of-the-art sonar equipped with Dual Spectrum Chirp technology, enabling enhanced differentiation between two targets, such as objects and fish. This allows for much better identification of fish on the substrate. The side image and Down Imaging can now be viewed in maximum detail, as resolution quality has dramatically improved. The presentation quality is almost photo-realistic, thanks to the high-resolution display. The SwitchFire and Time Variable Gain (TVG) functions ensure that fish sizes are displayed on the screen at different depths in predictable real-world dimensions. With a bit of practice, the size of target fish should be approximately determined.

MEGA Down Imaging can provide photo-realistic images in unparalleled quality. This is made possible by high transmission frequencies, achievable with the new HDSI encoder. The resolution and clarity are three times greater than in classic DI, allowing the contours and fins of fish to be recognized. The Helix MEGA DI+ GPS G4N sonar also has a real side and down signal, as well as SwitchFire in DI.

Equipped with a wideband 2D sonar, the sonar can capture super clear and detailed images. Even a tight school of fish can be individually separated, and a hidden predator can be identified in the image. The true wideband signal is fundamentally different in performance from the pseudo-signals of many other sondes. Most importantly, you can set the start and end frequencies of each signal.

Want to create your own map, no matter where you fish? With Humminbird's AutoChart Live feature, live mapping is possible not just with Garmin. It automatically determines the hardness and vegetation of the bottom and can overlay it with freely selectable transparency using Navionics electronic nautical charts. All G4N Helix CHIRP MEGA DI+ sonars have this ingenious feature. You have up to 8 hours of recording available with the depth probe - a sort of trial subscription. For larger recordings, you need the additional Zero Line SD card, which expands the internal memory of the device for years of navigation. Moreover, the Zero Line SD card is also included in the two complete versions of AutoChart PC and AutoChart PC Pro.

The sonar has an integrated Bluetooth interface. With this, the sonar is not controllable remotely (there is an optional RC-2 remote control), but you can pair your smartphone to view calls, text messages, signal strength, and battery status. This is useful if you want to keep your smartphone protected from water. An optional Bluetooth remote allows you to use your sonar from any angle of the boat. You can set waypoints, adjust sensitivity, or switch between favorite views at the push of a button. The remote is fully programmable - you can assign any function to any button: on or off, operate the image transmitter 360, or save an i-Pilot LINK Spot-Lock anchoring function to keep your fishing boat in place regardless of weather conditions.

The Humminbird Helix 9 CHIRP G4N series is networkable thanks to the built-in Ethernet system. This allows you to connect multiple devices in a network, share waypoints, and much more data. Through Ethernet, you can cleverly choose between different encoders - e.g., a Minn Kota US2 sonar or a Humminbird 360 imaging encoder, which can then be made available to all sonars in the network, if desired.

Humminbird Helix sonars are compatible with the Humminbird autopilot system. This takes control of the boat and keeps its course even in wind and waves. You can take the shortest direct route to your destination, as well as a special route, both configured in just seconds. The autopilot system is not only convenient and safe, but it also helps save fuel.

The NMEA 2000 port allows for the transfer of external data directly to the sonar. Such data can come from very different devices. For instance, data from the boat's engine, such as tank capacity, fuel consumption, or current speed, or even weather data from external modules.
