service provider apply. Contact your Internet service provider for more information about data limits or charges.

Updating Charts with ActiveCaptain
NOTE: Before you can update your charts, you must register them (
Getting Started with the ActiveCaptain App,
).
You can use the ActiveCaptain app to download and transfer the latest chart updates for your device. To
shorten download time and conserve storage space, you can download only the areas of the chart you need.
After you download a chart or area for the first time, updates are automatic each time you open ActiveCaptain.
If you are downloading an entire chart, you can use the Garmin Express
™
app to download the map onto
a memory card (
Updating Your Charts Using the Garmin Express App, page 135
). The Garmin Express app
downloads large charts more quickly than the ActiveCaptain app.
