    Default update download question


    In the brief instruction on the HB website it says that you must have a SD card reader/writer connected to your computer.Is this the same as the SD card slot that is on the computer now or do I have to get some external device? Found out I have two updates available for mine(788ci) today on the hummingbird website.Any help appreciated.

    It should recognise the reader in your pc...

    When HB PC asks where you want to save the download....choose your "removable drive"...(the one that is actually your card reader)

    It should put it on the card for you.....

    If your PC has a built in SD card reader it should work fine. Just download and save to your SD card.

    Thanks a lot guys - I had never downloaded to an SD card and wasnt sure. All I have ever done with them is upload photos. If I clear off all the pics from the SD card will any card work? My unit has two slots - one has the hot maps card in it - is there any need to remove the hotmaps card before I insert the other one with the update?

    ccga,

    You stated that you had 2 software verions for your unit. Just download the latest software and you will be fine. Just restore your defaults before you download the software.
