TZT14 Chart Cards

[dbenn]

I am making updated chart cards for my 3 TZT's couple of questions. How many layers of directories can I use on the card and do they have to be specific names? are there updated files for tides and currents if so where to download? Does the TZT make its own catalouge.zic
file or is it possible to download a new one. I have purchased new C-Map updates and downloading new NOAA charts and photo's and will be traveling to boat by air from US to Bahamas so I would like these Charts to be as plug and play as possible.

Thanks in advance

There are no limits other than based on space on your card. The TZT does not create its own catalog.

If you are looking for an updated tides and current file the most up to date one available would be found here:

Where can I download catalouge.zic

I am unfamiliar with that file. Where do you see it as it has never come up before?

It is a file that is on my original chart card that came with the unit. I thought it was required.

I am checking with our techs. I took a look at a card from a TZT and saw this small file, but I am still not sure if it is necessary or what it does. I'll post when I get an answer.

dbenn-
I have heard back from our tech department and they said that the system works just fine without that small file. They tested a unit by removing the file and reinserting the card. No difference.
I hope this helps.
