We dont know that the older and newer software links, though Helix is a later generation of Core series. If your 7 unit is a network unit it is worth a shot.

I did this on a customers boat last week.. Added a new Helix 7 SI G2N at the console and it did link up with his 858 or 859 DI (cant remember which)on the bow at least when I hit mark waypoint it shared the waypoint to the bow unit..

Helix is an excellent unit. Ive had my doubts about them. But all that has been lost.
