Autochart Pro won't work with 1198c?

(1/1)

jbpace:
Been drooling for Autochart Pro to finally come out so I could order.  Saw it on the HB site today & noticed it requires at least SW version 6.900.

Since the latest SW for my 6 month old 1198c is 6.740, does that mean I'll never be able to use it unless I drop several thousand more $ on a new unit?

I'm hoping an update is in the works, otherwise I'm going to be an extremely disappointed customer.

Anyone know facts, or heard rumors what might be happening?

Thanks, Jon

Hadn't checked that thread in months - thanks for pointing me back to it.  Did all my searches on 1198c SW versions.

For anyone who gets here and doesn't want to read through the above link:
   - HB is updating a lot of legacy systems to support Autochart
   - They're already running behind (my system update release target date was two days ago)
   - There is a workaround for systems that aren't yet updated (I'll pass and wait for an official update)

Time to hunker down and wait a little longer.

Why hunker down and wait?  Bencour already showed that it works on units without the 6.900/6.940/7.020 software.

Thanks captain negative.

The rest of us will go ahead and use our electronics to their full potential.
