Title: Autochart mapping settings
Post by: 35wailin on May 22, 2017, 12:54:05 PM

What settings should i use on my 7 SI to maximize the area that I am mapping while out on the water? 

I am using AutoChart Pro and it can use the sidescan data as well. 

I was out on a lake last friday and got what seems to be about a 40' swath of bottom with the sidescan on and shooting out over 100' per side.

Also' the map, when created on the computer is about 50 yards on shore instead of in the lake on the map.  I assume this is a GPS calibration or a setting I need to adjust on the Helix or the AC Pro?

Ok, thanks.  I hadn't realized at the time there was an AutoChart sub forum.  I have reposted there, thanks.
