    I'd like to update the Garmin 8612's in my center console. I noticed the main unit already has a memory card in one of the 2 sd card slots on the back of it. I'm guessing this is perhaps my Navionics cartography chip. Do I ignore it & follow these steps, using the empty SD card slot next to it, or should I take a different approach? Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.👍

Right now without a card made, when I turn on my ActiveCaptain app it says no devices registered. Thanks

    Just an update to this! I just installed the software update on my new 94sv UHD, and it did not go as simple as his! 4 hours, 3 SD cards later I finally get it installed! Mine moved much slower than his, so as he said be patient. Each time mine got to 100% validation on the update, my unit would pause. I checked all the suggested items on screen, hence 3 SD cards, however I decided to try my iPad as opposed to the IPhone 8 Plus I was using. The update installed correctly that time! So just for anyone in the future if it pauses try a different device to download from. Hope this saves someone like me from going crazy in the future! JMO.
