Title: Where to save data? zero line card or ScanDisk card
Post by: GM on October 03, 2021, 11:28:14 PM
After a while reading several posts I am still confused about where to save data obtained during acquisition (AutoChart live with Solix, helix, apex, etc). So, I must buy Zero line cards for this or can I simply use regular card disks such as those ScanDisk ones. Also, I read that files saved to zero line cards are only in ACU format and those saved to other cards (eg. ScanDisk) are in SON/DAT format, is it right? Any hint is appreciated.

Best,

GM

All the AutoChart products must be used with the Zero Line card  ...

A regular SD Card is for Nav data, ScreenShots, or recording Sonar  ...

A recording on a regular SD Card can be imported into the AutoChart PC program to create custom maps  ... but must then be exported to a Zero Line card to be used in the HB unit as a map card  ...
