How to generate and order an update file
To update the C-MAP chart database, you have to generate an update file, and e-mail
the file directly to C-MAP. The update file defines coverage of charts you can display
on your chart radar.
1. Connect a USB flash memory to the USB port on the Control Unit.
2. Get into the Chart maintenance mode then click the [License] button on the
InstantAccess bar™.
3. Click the [C-MAP] tab to show the [Licenses] dialog box for C-MAP.
4. From the [E-mail Size] drop-down list, select the size of the update file. The choic-
es are [100KB], [200KB], [300KB], [400KB], [500KB], [750KB], [1MB], [2MB],
[3MB], [4MB], [10MB], [Unlimited]. This is the size of the data file in an e-mail. The
file may be sent in pieces depending of the size selected.
5. Click the [Order Update File] button. A file name (C-MAP system ID and chart
type) is automatically created, with the extension .ord.
6. Select the USB flash memory.
7. Click the [Save] button to save the order file to the USB flash memory.
8. Send the order file to updates@c-map.no.
Within a few minutes you will receive a file that includes the terms for using the chart
service and the chart updates. Save the file to a USB flash memory and apply it as
shown in the next section.
