I am using this app and setting up routes. I name the routes giving a destination description. I have transferred the data to a data card and then imported to my Raymarine C - 80. All the data gets imported but routes are not shown. Just all the many waypoints however they are just given a number instead of the name. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?
 
I have the E series, but I imagine they work much the same. That said, there's a sub menu on the plotter to show stored routes. I can't remember the step by step method to get there, and I am not at the boat, but it is intuitive. Surf around the menus, and you should find it.

BTW, this would be a good time to update the software on your plotter, if necessary. The Raymarine site will list what the latest version is. It can be downloaded onto a CF card, and transferred to the plotter.

Thanks I will look again. When I hit routes the list was empty. I have gone through the manual as well. It is less intuitive then most. I have operated many aircraft GPS and it comes to me naturally. The other thing I cannot figure out is how to overlay the radar on top of the chart. I followed the book step by step and the option is not displayed on the lower soft keys as the books says it should be.

Have you got the latest firmware on the c80?

I know there have been a few versions for it.

I am up to date. I have been trying to figure out how to get the radar over lay on the plotter and have not been able to. The last update disabled it. Any ideas why?

see below
Radar

Corrected momentary 180 degree radar image shift
Disabled radar overlay feature for MFDs which have not been interfaced to a heading data source (ex. autopilot, Smart Heading System, ST60 Compass, etc.). Previous C-Series Classic MFD software releases permitted radar overlay when interfaced to a COG (vessel had to have a SOG of at least 2 kts) or heading data source.
 
J,

Since you mentioned that things went awry after your update to the latest version........

The first time I updated plotter software, I talked with Raymarine about the process. They explained that it was a good practice to run the update twice in a row, or the potential for an anomaly could exist. Did you know/do this? If not, give it a try. You may subsequently be in business.

Good luck,

V1
