Log Sonar Chart Data

If you have an MMC installed in the unit, the sonar data shown on the screen can be saved to it. This can be played back at any time. (To play a recorded sonar chart log, see the entry in this section for Sonar Simulator.) If you have a personal computer and internet access, download our free Sonar Viewer and your unit’s emulator at our web site, www.lowrance.com. That will allow you to replay sonar logs on your personal computer.
