Thread: Learning Helix from home?

Now would be a good time to start a folder organization system (on your PC) for your Snapshots ... This is beneficial as your Snapshots library starts growing ... and for re-viewing Snapshots on the HB unit at a future date ...

It's important to understand that the SNAPSHOTS folder must be kept intact to view the included Snapshots on the HB unit ... This means that the folder title SNAPSHOTS must not be edited in order for the unit to recognize it is Snapshots ...and the files inside the SNAPSHOTS folder must not be edited for the unit to display them ...

My system is ...:

*Create a folder on my PC desktop labeled "Humminbird"
*Inside the "Humminbird" folder - create a new folder labeled "Humminbird Snapshots" ...
*Inside the "Humminbird Snapshots" folder - create a new folder labeled with "today's date Snapshots" ...
*Inside the "today's date Snapshots" folder - copy and paste the SNAPSHOTS folder from the SD card ...

1. This system allows easy reference to Snapshots taken on a certain day ...
2. This system allows keeping the SNAPSHOTS folder in tact - such that the SNAPSHOTS folder can be copied back to a SD card and recognized by the unit in order to display those Snapshots on the HB unit at a future date ....

Waypoints are written directly to the unit memory of the unit that created them ...

The Nav data library can found under the Nav tab in "Waypoints Routes Tracks" ...
