(.smf ) files, we recommend using an SD card when recording StructureMaps. To have structure sonar log (.sl2) files automatically converted to StructureMap file format (.smf ), tap Convert to map when complete on the Sonar Log menu. The (.sl2) file will be converted to a (.smf ) file when recording is stopped. You can convert logs after recording from the File utility. Refer to the Utilities section of this manual for more information. ¼¼ NOTE: Keep the size of your sonar logs to 100MB or less to allow for faster file conversion. Current file size is occasionally flashed on the screen during the recording process. You will not be able to use any of the unit's other functions while a file is being converted. Converting files in high resolution You can create standard resolution or high resolution StructureMap .smf files. High resolution .smf files capture more detail, but take longer to convert and are larger than standard resolution .smf files. Check the High Resolution checkbox to convert files in high detail. Accessing StructureMap files on SD card All StructureMap files on your SD card will automatically appear on the screen when Saved mode is selected. Using StructureMaps with mapping cards StructureMap allows you to maintain full chart capability and can be used with embedded cartography as well as Navionics, Insight and other third-party charting cards compatible with HDS units. 64 | StructureMap | Lowrance HDS Gen2 Touch
