How to Synchronize Chart Data

This section shows you how to synchronize chart data between FMD-3xx0, FAR-2xx9
and FCR-2xx9 units, so that all units share the same chart data. Synchronization can
be done automatically or manually (see section 3.22.2), however all units selected for
synchronization must be powered to complete the synchronization. Synchronization
includes the following actions:
• Synchronize public keys
• Synchronize chart permits and licenses
• Synchronize chart data
• Synchronize manual updates
Note 1: Before synchronizing chart data, confirm that all units selected for synchroni-
zation are powered. (Do not turn off a unit during synchronizing.) If a unit is turned off
during the synchronizing, do the following on the unit which contains the medium:
• Open the [Sync Status] dialog box then click the [Disable Sync] button to disable
synchronization. Power all units registered for synchronization, then click the [Urge
Sync] button on the [Sync Status] dialog box on the unit containing the media to
forcibly synchronize.
• Make a group of all the units currently powered, referring to section 3.22.1, and reg-
ister the group with [Grouped with This Unit]. Reset the power on all units selected
for synchronization.
Note 2: C-MAP charts are not automatically synchronized. C-MAP charts are only
synchronized immediately after installing or updating the C-MAP database. If the sys-
tem has several FMDs, make a group of associated units before you install C-MAP
charts.
