Recording function on sounder
Submitted by randall df223 on Fri, 2014-09-05 21:02
I am learning how to use a Simrad sounder / plotter.
It has a recording function but the file comes out as a .slg file. Which I have established is a sonar log file. I have found that this won't play in media player or any other software readily available, but is recognised by the Navionics web app, although it wants me to upload it.... yeah right!
Simrad haven't responded to my questions yet. Does anyone know how you can play this back or record it in a different format?
Also, is it best to shut down the unit before taking the navionics card out and putting a different card in to save screen shots? Or can I change cards with the unit turned on?

Try this
Try this from Lowrance.
Should work as the Simrad is technically a Lowrance product (eg many add ons interchangeable).
