3. Installation on NavNet 3D
3.1.

Deleting the old data

Before installing the new charts it is recommended that you manually delete the old
chart data on every MFD. To determine which version of data is installed on an MFD,
press the [MENU] key, select the “Chart” page and select the “Data Catalog”. To delete
a file, right click on it and choose “Delete”:
-

If the release version of the US NOAA Vector charts “SDUSxxV57MAP” ends
with “01”, “02”, “03”, “04”, “05” or “06”, this unit should be updated with the new
“09” Vector charts.

-

If the release version of the US NOAA Raster charts “SDUSxxRMAP” ends with
“01”, “02”, “03”, “04”, or “05”, this unit should be updated with the new “06” Raster
charts.

3.2.

Installing the New Data

If an MFD needs to be updated with the new charts, you can download them using the
links provided above. You may also return your existing 1TB (not 500GB) External
Chart Hard Drive to Furuno to be updated at no charge. If you have not ordered an
External Chart Hard Drive, this would be an excellent and highly recommended time to
do so. You can order one containing the latest Library, using part number MM3-WRLDHD ($200 list price).
Copy the data at the root of the SD-Card(s). If you downloaded the files from Internet,
make sure to unzip them before transferring them on the SD-Card.
Note that if your MFD has Software v2.07, you can use a large SD-Card (16GB for
example) and transfer multiple files at the same time.
Note: On the MFDBB, it is highly recommended to load the new chart data via the USB
port using an SD-Card to USB adapter or a large USB Flash Drive (16GB for example).
Insert the SD-Card into the upper slot of the MFD to which the data is to be uploaded.
On the MFDBB, it is recommended to load the charts from one of the USB 2.0 ports
(making the transfer much faster).
IMPORTANT: When loading multiple charts at the same time, make sure you don’t
overload the MFD memory. To know how much data you can load onto the MFD, look
at the number of Memory Slots remaining (Menu -> Chart Catalog) and multiply this
value by two. This will give the maximum number of Gigabits that you can load on the
MFD (ex: if four memory slots are available, you can load up to 8GB of data onto the
SD-Card or Flash Drive)
Press the [MENU] key, select the “Chart” page and then select “Data Catalog”. Press
the “Install Data” button.

Select “Yes” when the following prompt appears:

The transfer will begin and a window displaying a progress bar will appear:

When the progress bar is complete, it will disappear from the screen and the MFD will
start. The new data is now loaded and ready for use.

4. Installation on NavNet TZtouch
On NavNet TZtouch, the charts are directly read from the SD-Card located under the
cover over the left SD-Card Slot. To update the charts, remove the SD-Card and insert
it into the SD-Card reader of your computer.

4.1.

Deleting the old data

Browse on the SD-Card to the NOAA USA folder and delete the files in the Raster and
Vector Folders.

4.2.

Installing the new data

If an MFD needs to be updated with the new chart data, you can download them using
the links provided above.
You may also return your existing External Chart Hard Drive to Furuno to be updated at
no charge. If you have not ordered an External Chart Hard Drive, this would be an
excellent and highly recommended time to do so. You can order one containing the
latest Library, using part number MM3-WRL-DHD ($200 list price).
Copy the data to the NOAA - Raster and Vector Folders of the SD-Card. If you have
downloaded the files from Internet, be sure to unzip them before transferring them
onto the SD-Card.

You also need to update the chart catalog to reflect these changes. You can download
the latest catalog file at http://www.maxsea.fr/data/catalogue.zic. After you download the
file, copy it to the root directory of the chart SD-Card.
If you have multiple TZT MFDs, repeat this process with all the SD-Cards. Note that
once you have updated one SD-Card, you may use the “Clone” function of the MFD to
duplicate SD-Cards.

5. Appendix: Vector Charts Added
Chart Naming Convention:
The 1st and 2nd characters represent the country code (US).
The 3rd character represents the navigation purpose. The U.S. has five classifications:
- # 1 is for overview charts with scales ranging from 1:1,500,001 or smaller
- # 2 is for general charts with scales ranging from 1:600,001 - 1:1,500,000
- # 3 is for coastal charts with scales ranging from 1:150,001 - 1:600,000
- # 4 is for approach charts with scales ranging from 1:50,001 - 1:150,000
- # 5 is for harbor charts with scales ranging from 1:50,000 or larger
The 4th and 5th characters represent the state.
