    The reason I ask is the instructions say not to delete those folders, which I did not as they weren't on the zlc.
    Did you check for the folders on your computer?

    I do not have the computer software, just the ZLC. I have units with built-in Auto Chart Live.

    I have not used the SI mosiacs feature. My ZLC has two folders.
    One is Lakemaster which is the Zero Lines and is 14.2 GB in size
    One is acdata which is the contours I have added and is 191 KB

    Yes I have. I have the Lakemaster folder at 14.2 g the profile folder is 287 bytes. The computer shows 15.9gb free of 30.2gb. The difference is 14.3. Maybe I am okay just worried because of the warning not to delete those folders. Then I couldn't locate them on the zero line card.

    Thanks Wayne. I know that I appreciate all of your help and knowledge on here and that you are always very unselfish with your help. Humminbird should put you on the payroll for all of the help you give.

    The Profile folder is what your unit puts on the card when it is unlocked. It is unit settings. You can delete that if you want.

    Hello friends and colleagues they
    I am from Bulgaria and please be excused for my English.
    Today I read the whole topic, but you can not find answers to some questions of mine.
    I will try to explain MY problems from the start and will ask for help.
    4 days ago I bought HELIX 12 si gps chirp and ZLC. I made my first card ACL stayed very pleased, but appeared a big problem.
    The depth of my lake changes every week and now I do not know when my next walking what settings I set to do the correct card on my lake.
    Please tell me step by step what you need to do every time recording with different levels of water.


    Wait your help.


    Thanks in advance to all.

    There is a mechanism for correcting water level fluctuations in the PC version of Autochart.....but I don't know about Autochart Live.

    Maybe it would be possible to do a water level offset to keep a reference depth.

    In case you eventually have to use the PC software to do the correction .... Keep a log of the relative water depth difference each time you do the recordings.

    Hey there,I have a question on the possible set up on autochart (not AC live) before I load the data from my zero lines card.
    Here in eastern SD, as many know, the lakes have flooded in recent years. The borders of the lakes show on the map on the card/software, but all the lakes are actually past the border. So when I load the data, it really condenses it together.
    Wondering where/if/how I can change that? Appreciate the help!

    I need some advice about a problem I have with AutoChart PC. I had been using it and I've made some maps. I can see them like expected on my Helix and I could see the 3D view on the computer. One day that changed. I can no longer make a 3D view. It acts like it is going to and it shades it but the map doesn't give the 3D effect. I can turn it but it only a flat plane with not heights or lows.

    I uninstalled AutoChart and reinstalled but it didn't help. Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Is there a trial copy of the AutoChart PC software available?

    Thanks,

    Thanks, next question I should have asked earlier too - are the maps on the LakeMaster card the only full on 140,000 named bodies of water in the AutoChart program? I'm trying to find out if Lake Amon G. Carter in near Bowie Texas is on it in detail or just a blue hole waiting for AutoChart data from the user.

    If you are asking if the Zero Lines card (used for Auto Chart PC program) has map data for that lake, NO - it has Zero Lines for all lake outlines to be populated with your mapping data.

    If you're asking if a HB LakeMaster card for that region contains map data - go to HB's site & download the lake list for that region map card.

    There are some areas missing from the zero lines card but the cool thing is you can create your own outlines and fill it with your own data. I did this for certain sections of the missiouri river in my area

    Thanks, sfw1960. I understand the Zero Lines card is just that, zero lines.

    I'm asking if the AutoChart PC program itself has that lake in detail. The LakeMaster chip does not according to the PDF. I was thinking I could plot my way through the creek on my PC and transfer those way points to the Helix, then AutoChart it from the Helix.

    The AutoChart PC program is just a program .... it doesn't have any data unless you provide it.

    The program itself contains NOTHING for lake contour data, it can import your data & generate maps from the sonar logs you record to a blank SD Cars.

    So, yes you will have to record sonar logs to a blank SD Card, import that to your AutoChart PC and start making your own private lake map.



    Your waypoints can be loaded independently of any unit - and have nothing to do with using AutoChart PC or Live.

    You need the ZLC to export the mapping and display that on a HB unit.

    HTH~

    So, as I mentioned before, I don't know of a way to just copy a map from one ZLC to another, at least not the map generated from AutoChart Pro.

    AutoChart Live map must be an .acu file, which must have the ability to be copied from one card to another.
    You can swap ACL map files with your buddies!

    I'll be experimenting much more when it warms back up....

    I just purchased a Helix 12 Chirp SI unit to replace my 899ci SI. I have a few questions about autochart. If I import the AC live data is there a need to import sonar recordings or does the AC live sonar data have more fidelity than the plain sonar recording? If I create a map wit AC then create a bottom hardness overlay can I select the AC map and overlay the Bottom hardness layer? Do I need sonar recordings for bottom hardness or does the AC live data include the info AC Pro requires to create the BH layer?

    Thank you,
