Boat; 2005 280 twin 5.0's. There is a depth transducer which is plugged into the SC gauges
I'm going to replace the old Garmin chartplotter (no transducer) with a Garmin 942xs (which requires a transducer). I was thinking of swapping out the current depth transducer for one that is compatible with the Garmin unit so that I don't have to cut a new hole into the boat.
1. Does anyone know if there is a way to split the data so that I can have a feed into the SC gauge
2. If I disconnect the transducer from the SC gauge will I get an "error" message on the SC gauge (which would be annoying).
