The HELIX G2 family consists of five models to meet the individual needs of anglers and boaters. All units feature an updated operating system, 800H x 480V 5-inch 256-color TFT display, and allow for gimbal mounting, or in-dash mounting with an optional kit. International models support 200/50kHz. Optional 50 kHz transducers are available for extreme deep-water use. All models in the HELIX 5 G2 family are upgradeable, allowing users to receive software updates when they are available.
Three new units have GPS capabilities built-in - the HELIX 5 CHIRP GPS G2, HELIX 5 CHIRP DI GPS G2, and HELIX 5 CHIRP SI GPS G2. The new GPS units feature a Micro SD card slot for use with advanced cartography or to save screenshots, sonar recordings or waypoints.
All three GPS-enabled units have the following features:
• CHIRP digital sonar and GPS chartplotting with internal GPS receiver for 2,500 waypoints, 45 routes, 50 tracks and 20,000 waypoints.
• Pre-loaded with AutoChart Live, giving users the ability to map the depth of any body of water; includes space for 8-hours of mapping on the hard drive with additional storage available on an optional AutoChart Zero Line map card.
• Compatible with all Humminbird LakeMaster charts, including Smart Strike.
• SmartStrike identifies the best places to fish based on species, time of year/day, weather, bottom contours, and more.
• Navionics® Gold/HotMaps™ compatible.
• Water surface temperature gauge built into transducer for finding fish-holding locations.
• GPS speed included.
• 1,500 feet depth capability.
The HELIX 5 CHIRP DI GPS G2 includes CHIRP Down Imaging, with 600 feet depth-capable sonar and 350 feet Down Imaging® capability. The HELIX 5 SI CHIRP GPS is the flagship unit of the family and includes CHIRP Down Imaging and CHIRP Side Imaging® with 1,500 feet depth-capable sonar, 350 feet Down Imaging capability and 100 feet Side Imaging capability on both left and right sides.
In addition, there is a portable model, HELIX 5 CHIRP GPS G2 PT (Portable), which includes Humminbird shuttle, soft-sided carrying case, suction cup transducer, 7aH battery and charger, and the same capabilities as the HELIX 5 CHIRP GPS G2.
Designed for anglers who do not require GPS, the HELIX 5 SONAR G2 and HELIX 5 DI G2 bring HELIX 5 users a new, more intuitive and streamlined user interface and operating system.
The HELIX 5 SONAR G2 and HELIX 5 DI G2 include:
• Sonar capabilities designed for the angler/boater who requires DualBeam PLUS Sonar, allowing users to select a narrow, high-detailed beam, and/or a wide beam for a larger search area.
• Water surface temperature gauge built into transducer for finding fish-holding locations.
• 1,500 feet depth capability.
• Optional paddlewheel speed sensor to gauge speed on the water.
The HELIX 5 DI G2 is designed for the angler who requires Down Imaging® and DualBeam PLUS Sonar. It delivers 600 feet depth-capable sonar and 350 feet Down Imaging capabilities.
The HELIX 5 SONAR G2 is also available in a portable model, HELIX 5 SONAR G2 PT (Portable), which includes Humminbird shuttle, soft-sided carrying case, suction cup transducer, 7aH battery and charger.
