probs with BlueChart micro SD in GPS

Post by RHTFISH »

Hey guys! I just purchased a BlueChart microSD chip of our Fl area for my 76CSx. After inserting the card nothing changes in the display.
Do I need to do anything in particular for the chip to work? Thanks in advance for any info!

I think you have to go into the menus and tell it to use the maps on the card. Lemme see if I can find out for sure.

You have to go to Menu > Setup Map
Select the Map Setup-information page

The list of maps stored on the sd card appears

A check mark means the map is active. Check all the maps you want to active.
