Converting les
To create a StructureMap file you must convert a structure sonar
log (.sl2) file to StructureMap format (.smf). This can be done
automatically from the Sonar Log menu, or manually by converting
logs from the Files menu. Due to the large size of StructureMap
(.smf) files, we recommend using an SD card when recording
StructureMaps.
To have structure sonar log (.sl2) files automatically converted to
StructureMap file format (.smf), tap Convert to map when
complete on the Sonar Log menu. The (.sl2) file will be converted to
a (.smf) file when recording is stopped. You can convert logs after
recording from the File utility. Refer to the Utilities section of this
manual for more information.
¼ NOTE: Keep the size of your sonar logs to 100MB or less to allow for
faster file conversion. Current file size is occasionally flashed on the
screen during the recording process. You will not be able to use any
of the unit’s other functions while a file is being converted.
Accessing StructureMap les on SD card
All StructureMap files on your SD card will automatically appear on
the screen when Saved mode is selected.
Using StructureMaps with mapping cards
StructureMap allows you to maintain full chart capability and can be
used with embedded cartography as well as Navionics, Insight and
other third-party charting cards compatible with HDS units.
