QUOTE=CamoHunter;4363353]If you have an 1198, you do not have AutoChart LIVE. Your only option is AutoChart or AutoChart Pro on a computer.

B]AutoChart LIVE[/B] is ONLY available on the ONIX and the newer Helix models (9, 10, 12). AutoChart LIVE is built into the actual depthfinder and allows you to create maps while on the water.

B]AutoChart[/B] and B]AutoChart PRO[/B]: The only difference between these two PC Computer softwares, is that AutoChart PRO adds the ability to create a Bottom Hardness layer and Side Imaging layer. Otherwise the two versions are identical. AutoChart and AutoChart PRO are computer programs, and you would need import your data from your depthfinder, into the computer program to create a map.

The bottom hardness layer, is ONLY visible in the computer software. There is no way to export that layer to your ZeroLines SD card.

The Side Imaging layer, you CAN export to your ZeroLines SD card, and view on your depthfinder.


As far as your question about loosing Lakemaster data. That will never happen. AutoChart & the ZeroLines SD card are completely separate. You are supposed to be able to display both at the same time though. Base Layer: Lakemaster, Overlay: AutoChart map. (pg. 17 of the Zeroline SD card manual). Some people have had issues getting that to work properly though, so they've had to choose to display one or the other.

Hope that answers all your questions![/QUOTE]
