Title: Looking to record to ZL card and blank SD.
Post by: Reelcrazy on February 16, 2018, 01:22:33 PM

I want to have my Autochart live data go to my zero lines card. I also want to record sonar logs to upload to Navionics servers so everyone can benefit from my mapping efforts. Is there any way I can do this at once? If I turn autochart live on without the zero lines card in the unit and allow it to write to the internal memory. Also start a sonar log with a blank SD card in the unit. When I finish recording my Sonar log eject the SD with sonar data on it then plug in my ZL card and get the Autochart live data from the day on the ZL card. The unit is a Humminbird Helix G2N MEGA. Possible?  :D

I think I can help you, I own a Helix 9 si mega. I have a ZLC card in one slot with Live Autochart going to it. Then I have a formatted SD card in the other slot. I will record sonar recordings on the  other SD card. Just don't make really long recordings, as if there is a problem you won't waist the whole recording. I am sure that a few others will chime in and elaborate, but that's it in a nut shell. Oh yea you have to tell the unit where to put the Live Autochart data at.

Awesome thank you I wasn’t sure if both could be done at once. I plan on uploading the Sonar logs daily. Did you notice that recording to two cards slowed the unit down?

Nope and I sure hope I gave you good information.
