The settings here are for users with charts from Bremer Schiffsmeldedienst (BSMD). If you are using these charts, you can enable occasional checks to see if you have any chart updates. When chart updates are available, you can download them directly from BSMD using an automatic download feature.
To use the remote update features from BSMD, you must have an account with BSMD.
Chart Files (Only SEAiq Pilot) : View currently downloaded chart files.
From time to time, you may wish to remove old update files. After deleting such files be sure to press Update to download any parts of those files that might still be needed.
Download Updates (Only SEAiq Pilot) : This attempts to download charts from BSMD. You must be connected to the internet and have an account registered with BSMD. The update continues in the background.
This capability can be used for your initial chart download as well as for periodic updates.
You can see the status being updated as the download proceeds. When complete, an alert is given.
Keep in mind chart updates can be quite large. You may want to wait until you are connected to a high speed internet connection before downloading updates for your charts.
Erase All Charts (Only SEAiq Pilot) : This button erases all your BSMD charts, after confirmation. This cannot be undone. You can download the files again. You can erase chart files individually by going to the Charts listing and pressing Edit.
This may be useful when changing accounts to clear out old files. Also, we recommend doing this periodically to reduce the number of update files present on your device.
