Chart cards
To use your E-Series Display as a navigation aid, charts with the appropriate level of
detail for the geographic area you wish to navigate are required. The charts are
available in electronic format on Navionics Chart cards. Details of these cards and how
to obtain them is given on
page iv
.
When archiving data, Raymarine recommends that you only use SanDisk brand CF
memory cards. Other brands of CF memory cards may not work in your E-Series
Display.
