NOTICE Software updates may require the app to download large files. Regular data limits or charges from your Internet service provider apply. Contact your Internet service provider for more information about data limits or charges. The installation process can take several minutes. 1 Connect the mobile device to the ECHOMAP Plus device (Getting Started with the ActiveCaptain App, page 3). 2 When a software update is available and you have internet access on your mobile device, select Software Updates > Download.

Updating Charts with ActiveCaptain You can use the ActiveCaptain app to download and transfer the latest chart updates for your device. To save space on your mobile device, space on the ActiveCaptain card, and download time, consider using the ActiveCaptain app to download only the areas of the chart you need. If you are downloading an entire chart, you can use the Garmin Express™ app to download the map onto a memory card. The Garmin Express app downloads large charts more quickly than the ActiveCaptain app. For more information, go to garmin.com /express.

Charts and 3D Chart Views The charts and 3D chart views that are available depend on the map data and accessories used. NOTE: 3D chart views are available with premium charts, in some areas. You can access the charts and 3D chart views by selecting Charts. Navigation Chart: Shows navigation data available on your pre- loaded maps and from supplemental maps, if available. The data includes buoys, lights, cables, depth soundings, marinas, and tide stations in an overhead view. Fishing Chart: Provides a detailed view of the bottom contours and depth soundings on the chart. This chart removes navigational data from the chart, provides detailed bathymetric data, and enhances bottom contours for depth recognition. This chart is best for offshore deep-sea fishing. NOTE: The Fishing chart is available with premium charts, in some areas. Perspective 3D: Provides a view from above and behind the boat (according to your course) and provides a visual navigation aid. This view is helpful when navigating tricky shoals, reefs, bridges, or channels, and is beneficial when trying to identify entry and exit routes in unfamiliar harbors or anchorages. Mariner's Eye 3D: Shows a detailed, three-dimensional view from above and behind the boat (according to your course) and provides a visual navigation aid. This view is helpful when navigating tricky shoals, reefs, bridges, or channels, 4 Charts and 3D Chart Views
