Subject: Transferring Spots from H-Bird to Lowrance...HELP!


I have a question regarding data transfer from my Humminbird to my lowrance. I recently purchased a boat with a lcx104c and was trying to get all of my spots loaded on a SD card from my humminbird. How do I go about doing this, When I go and try to import all my previous way points it wont let. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to get your Humminbird Waypoints on to an SD card. Put the SD card in to the computer and use a GPS file converting tool (I attached a link at the bottom of my post) to convert the waypoints from .hwr (Humminbird Waypoints and Routes) to .usr (Lowrance) (At least that's what I did for mine.) Save the converted .usr files to an SD card. Put the SD card in the Lowrance and follow your owners manual on how to get the waypoints off the card on to the graph. I've never used the Lowrance unit you're talking about so I don't have any idea how to get the waypoints from the SD card to the graph. User manuals are available online via Lowrance. There are also a bunch of guys on here that can help you with that.
