Attention: SIMRAD NSX / C-Map Genesis / Insight Map Creater - Not compatible

[TACKLEFEVER]

What was previously only an unpleasant rumor from dealer circles
is now taking real shape.

Based on our information it will indeed be the case that the
new Simrad NSX series will not work with C-Map Genesis
as well as with IMC created maps.

This is a great disappointment for the users and currently blocks
the open way to create custom maps for the NSX units.


Was bisher nur ein unschönes Gerücht aus Händlerkreisen
zu hören war nimmt nun reale Form an.

Aufgrund unserer Informationen wird es tatsächlich so sein das
die neue Simrad NSX Serie aktuell nicht mit über C-Map Genesis
als auch über den IMC erstellten Maps funktionieren wird.

Das ist eine herbe Enttäuschung für die Nutzer und versperrt aktuell
den offenen Weg zur Erstellung von eigenen Karten für die NSX Geräte.

As a business, it is important to communicate changes effectively.

As detailed in the videos and knowledge base about the Simrad NSX unit and its new operating system, the NSX is not compatible with the At5 format and uses its own mapping format.  At this time, the Insight Map Creator only creates Navico compatible maps in the At5 format and C-Map Genesis only exports maps in the At5 format.  All other chart plotters that use these services are still compatible.

Without permission, I'm unable to detail any non-public plans for these or similar services.  As any additional information is authorized to be released, we will update this thread.

That is a great pity.

Hopefully, this is not an incontrovertible fact.

It would be a great loss for all those who have already created
their own maps from their data if they lose this functionality.

Likewise, I wonder about the fact that such a great feature as
C-Map Genesis (social maps) no longer works on the devices.

So you can no longer get started right away by
downloading a social map for your body of water.

Should this extend to other newly appearing device series,
I can well imagine that some potential buyers take into account
when renewing their devices and possibly switch not only to
Lowrance but also to other brands outside the Navico brands.

Is the IMC and At5 format coming to an end Greg?

This thread contains all the information I can disclose.

I have pasted your topic here since it is the same topic.

Es wird ja noch schlimmer
Hab mich wegen neuer Karten für mein Simrad EVO3 und Lowrance HDS Gen2T umgesehen.
Selbst die C-Map Discover die für alle Simrad, Lowrance und B&G Plotter geeignet ist, funktioniert nicht am neuen NSX.
Für das NSX wiederum gibt es neue Discover X Karten, die nicht zu den anderen Geräten kompatibel sind,
ich gehe davon aus, das damit eine Netzwerkshare der Karten auch nicht mehr funktioniert.

Ist schon enttäuschend die ganze Sache
