    Default Autochart pro help on SD card


    I just bought a Helix 7si and it has a microsd slot. My 798Si has a SD slot. I want to but the Autochart pro for my Helix 7. I have search the internet and forums and all I can come up with it describes the Card for Autochart pro as SD. If that is so then the SD memory card wont fit in my Helix 7 micro slot. Or does Autochart pro come with a micro sd memory card so I can put it in my Helix7 micro slot. Thanks. I am guessing the Autocahart pro comes with an MicroSd card inside an adaptor so you can use it both SD slot and micro slot.

    When AutoChart 1st came out - the Zero Lines cards were SD Card (full size) ...

    Soon after ...HELIX was released with micro SD Card slot ...

    Upon which HB changed the Zero Lines card to micro SD Card inside a SD Card adapter ...

    It is most likely any Zero Lines card you find will be micro SD Card in a full size SD Card adapter ...
    (This would pertain to Zero Lines itself or in the AutoChart software package) ...
    -------

    Note: I, also am having difficulty finding actual documentation stating this in any nomenclature other than forum discussion...

    I will add the link here when I track down actual nomenclature ...

    Thanks Rickie. That was what I was thinking. Before I pull the plug and buy it I want to make sure I am getting the micro card with software could be old boxes still out there. I think it would be best to buy it from straight at Humminbird site. Waiting to see if you can get something clear on this. Much appreciated.

    I can find several discussions (even Bill Carson himself) saying HELIX 5 and 7 can use AutoChart ...

    You can call HB and verify ... It may actually be stated on the AutoChart packaging ... 1-800-633-1468

    My Zero Lines card is one of the original full size SD Card ...

    I'm still looking for documented verification ...(I guess Bill could be considered verification lol ...but I'm still looking for it in official documentation) ...

    I can't believe that was that hard to find ...

    http://www.humminbird.com/WorkArea/D...t.aspx?id=6391

    It doesn't state "micro SD Card" but it shows the micro SD Card ...

    If you happen to receive an old version that does not have the micro SD Card ... Immediately call HB and they should exchange it for you ...

    Thanks Rickie for all your help. Even at The humminbird sit no pics of micro card . I guess they are behind in updating. i am going to buy from the Humminbird site. They should have the new boxes. Thanks again for your time and help. You are too kind and a valuable asset to the community. O yes thanks for that link on Craapie Now. Love it.
