RayTech Navigator User’s Guide
4-2
Working with charts in Navigator consists initially of installing the
charts, after which, you can open and display as many or as few as
you need. The more charts you decide to install, the longer the overall
installation process takes; however, once installed, you can display
those charts at the moment you need them without waiting.
It’s important to keep in mind the difference between
installing the charts into Navigator, and installing the charts
onto your PC from the original manufacturer’s CD. The chart
installation instructions in this chapter describe installation
from a Navigator point-of-view, leaving the explanation of
installing the charts onto your PC to the chart manufacturer.
Refer to the instructions that came with the CD.
Where to Store Charts
The best place to store your charts is on the hard drive of the PC that’s
running Navigator. By loading your most commonly used charts onto
the PC, you always have virtually instant access to them, they load
faster, and they are easier to read under rough conditions (CD drives
can skip tracks if tossed about). The charts, especially photographic
charts, will consume disk space, but with today’s large-Gigabyte hard
drives, it should not be an issue.
