[TG] [TG11] Sonar sync with dragonfly pro 4 and 5 and navionics charts

[psh12001]

Thanks for the reply... The navionics link you provided says
Raymarine users can also upload sonar logs for improved SonarChartâ„¢ even without an active subscription on plotter or mobile.. This seems to imply that I don't need to buy any charts... But the pro 4 only came with lighthouse charts, not navionics..


I am almost certain that when I bought the Pro 4 that this was one of its features on the old Australia and nz navionics app, but now they have changed the app, it doesn't seem to work anymore

I will buy the navionics plus nz regions msd card for it and hopefully it will work then. Once I have found a supplier. Which should match the same area as my navionics app I subscribe to.
Cheers Paul


Earlier versions of the Navionics app perhaps did less checking in the back-end, but there are certainly restrictions on Navionics' side about what their app will sync and when. Waypoints, routes and tracks require (I believe) just an active app subscription, but chart data such as community edits requires an active subscription on both the app and a Navionics chart card inserted into the MFD, and matching chart coverage regions on both chart card and app: see https://www.navionics.com/aus/charts/fea...otter-sync for more detail. This isn't a Raymarine restriction but a Navionics one. I don't suppose that chart data was ever intentionally transferred by Navionics onto a non-Navionics chart card - I assume it was working 'by accident' before in your case - and know of no way to do this now without buying and registering a Navionics chart that has the same coverage region as your app does.
