Title: ZLC
Post by: Phillybo on September 06, 2017, 01:54:25 PM
New helix 12 owner. Did a few hrs with ACL
Works fine. Wanting to try a ZLC but have questions.
     Does the ZLC act as a large capacity ACL
or do I have to remove it and use the auto chart
Software to make the ZLC viewable?

You are correct  ... The Zero Line card is a larger capacity media that AutoChart Live data can be written directly to  ...

The internal AutoChart Live capacity is only 8hrs and is included in the unit as a demo version of AutoChart Live capabilities  ...

When the Zero Line card is inserted into the unit- the AutoChart Live data (that is written in the internal memory if you created any) will automatically dump to the Zero Line card  ... Then the Zero Line card can be removed and record another 8hrs of AutoChart Live data to internal memory or leave the Zero Line card in the unit and write future AutoChart Live data directly to the Zero Line card  ...

Thanks for responding Rick.
So if I understand, I don't have to have the auto chart program to be able to view and use the contour mapping saved to the ZLC.

Correct  ... AutoChart Live is the program built into the HB unit functionality  ...

AutoChart Live data saved into the unit memory or on the Zero Line card will be able to be viewed when you are close enough to the area that the AutoChart Live data was created  ...
-----

The AutoChart PC and AutoChart PC Pro programs can be used for creating Lake master mapping data from recorded HB Sonar log files  ...

And the AutoChart PC programs can be used for converting AutoChart Live Data (created on a Zero Line card in a AutoChart Live HB unit) into a format that non-Autochart Live capable units can read  ...
