C-Map essentials - mezrich - 06-07-16 05:57 AM
Among the options when I purchased my a95 MFD was which chart system was installed. I chose the Lighthouse chart option and it is good. But I'd also like to try the C-Map option, mainly because it includes Active Captain, but I can't figure out how to get it. It appears that the "essential" version of the software is not available unless you get it installed when you purchase the MFD.
If that is indeed the case, which version of the C-Map software would work with the a95 MFD?

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum mezrich.
Raymarine MFD's are not pre-loaded with cartography. Instead, the MFD, or network of MFDs will display cartography from whichever chart cards are present in the system. In this case, you need simply purchase a C-Map 4D chart card from an authorized C-Map dealer and insert it into your MFDs memory card reader. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject.
