To purchase BSB or ChartPack charts, call your local chart
vendor, or else call Maptech at 978/933-3000 or NDI at 800/
563-0634.
To purchase HCRF charts, call your local chart vendor, or else
call ARCS Customer Services at +44 (0)1823 723366 or visit
the UKHO's website at www.ukho.gov.uk (click on the "charts"
link) for a list of worldwide Admiralty Charts and Publications
agents/distributors. Note that every time you purchase HCRF
charts, you'll need to give this agent/distributor your user
permit (to view your user permit, see "Viewing your HCRF user
permit and license" starting on page 13-58).
From the BSB or ChartPack source CD, you can load all the
charts or only the ones you want. When installing BSB-format
charts, be sure to use Maptech Chartkit's Second Edition or
higher. If you try to install one of the First Edition CDs, you'll
receive an error message and will be unable to complete the
installation.
Before you load BSB or ChartPack charts, you may want to first list
the charts that are on the source CD (see "Displaying a list of charts
on a CD" starting on page 13-67), then follow the guidelines below
to load either all charts or only marked charts. Why list charts first?
Listing charts lets you display an
screen, which lists the size (in megabytes) of the CD, and the size
(also in megabytes) of the space that's left for more charts: If the
size of the charts on the CD is larger than the space available for
charts, you won't be able to load all the charts from this CD. When
loading charts, you'll see the number of charts in the database
increasing and the space left for charts decreasing.
