I have had a brand new GPSMAP 1243 xsv for a year professionally installed. I have been on the phone with the installer and Garmin several times. This video was a clearer explanation than I have gotten from either company. Thanks

can i download my map routes to an sd card and transfer them to my garmin? do you have a link for that? Please and thank you..

@tylertyson4457 2 месяца назад

Excellent video Alex, I just bought a Garmin GPSMAP 743xsv. I am going to have it professionally flush mounted. I noticed that there is an SD card in one of the slots. I am not sure what's on the card. Should I leave it in or take it out. I did install a blank card into the second slot, what should I do?

@brucecronin6396 2 года назад

When updating for the first time using a new SD card do you need to insert the card into the graph to encrypt it?

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

Not with this method, if you want to use Garmin Express you do

@AlThePal78 5 месяцев назад

I have two 106sv’s and they are linked together by a Ethernet cable. Will it update both units or do I need to use the card in each unit separately and unplug the Ethernet cable?

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

You will want to use the card in each unit to update them both separately

Hey Alex, great video...Im not sure why but when I extract the file from desktop and click on the file folder it opens a folder labeled Garmin and if I open that I get a long list of DAT files....lmk if you have any suggestions! Thank You!

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

That folder that says Garmin is what needs to move to the SD card, then pop the SD card into your chartplotter and it should prompt for an update

@brianberres4288 2 года назад

@@AlexTimm Hi Alex, awesome video. I had the .dat files similar to what David described and I moved the Garmin folder to my SD card. When I put the SD card in my ECHOMAP it does not prompt for an update. Instead, I get the options of Manage User Data, Copy Built-in Map, or Create ActiveCaptain Memory Card. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Thank you.

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

@@brianberres4288 If the chartplotter is prompting for those options, it isn't seeing the update at all. What chartplotter are you using and which update link / file did you try to use?

I ended up deleting the file on the SD card and going through the process again and the software update worked. I guess I'll chalk it up to user error somewhere in the process :). Thanks again for the video.

Good video. I just received my LVS 34 did my update it restarted when ask but my gls 10 new box still not found. I'm using 10 marine grade wiring.

@@jones1394 Check the fuse to it, then I'd try re doing the update and see if it works after a second attempt. If that still doesn't work you likely have a defective black box (not common, but it happens)

@vapariverrill9281 Год назад

hey Alex the Copy to Card part of the step did not come up when I unzipped any ideas why? thanks

@AlexTimm Год назад

They recently updated & changed that step. Once you get the update downloaded and the folder extracted you should see a folder called "Garmin". Just copy and paste that folder directly to the SD card and you are good to go from there. I'll put on my list to make an updated video! Thanks for the note!

@shyguy8240 Год назад

Do you leave the sd card in the unit once you done downloading or go fishing?

Mixed results from people depending on the brand card and formatting, but I've had it work but no need really from my experience, haven't really had much data to put on the card to need the bigger size

I could not find the "Copy2Card" function when downloading the echoMapwithSDCard. The link is from you. What should I do in this case?

@DividedWeAllFall 5 месяцев назад

I had the same issue. In the update from the Garmin website it just says to unzip the file then drag it onto the sd card. Then you unplug it from the pc and into the graph. But my batteries to power my units on won’t be here til Wednesday to see if it worked or not.

@thomasmeyers4908 2 года назад

does the lakemaster chip work in a garmin livescope unit?

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

It does not, you need to get the Garmin specific maps. They have some BlueChart maps and Navionics maps now. Both are good, I think they are transitioning over eventually to all Navionics (since they own them)

If I have two similar Garmin units (GPSmap 942) connected, will I need to do this on both, or will plugging the SD card into just one then update both units?

@AlexTimm 2 года назад

You need to do it on both, but can use the same card once one is finished just take it out and pop in the other
