Humminbird Auto Chart Pro

Has anyone ever used this before? I'm

Thinking about picking this up for one of the lakes I fish, but I have no idea where to even begin. Looks like I need to purchase a blank SD card as well with the Humminbird Auto Chart Pro. I also don't have the Onix or Ion just the standard 1198 unit.

Auto Chart and Auto Chart Pro works with your 1198.

 

The Pro version gives you extra stuff like 3D SI overlay and bottom hardness.

 

You save recordings and upload those recording to the software to create HD contour mapping that you can use in the unit.

 

It will give you some Lakemaster features until Lakemaster releases mapping for our part of the country.

thanks Wayne, is it possible to do this live mapping on the water as in this video with my unit or just Onix/Ion models only?

The ONIX will and your 1198 will not.

Wayne, do you think Humminbird will ever release the Auto Chart Live for. 1198, 900, 800 series Models? I don't understand why it limited to ONIX and ION models only.

No, those units don't have the processing power to handle it.

Maybe the 2014 year models that got faster processors.
