Revert to previous SA chart cycle?

[swatson999]

I usually keep one USB stick plugged in to my computer so it downloads the SA charts, and that works fine. But today, I plugged in the one from the plane (to get the flight logs for upload to Savvy), and didn't turn off DataManager. It proceeded to update that stick to the new charts, which aren't effective until later this week. I'm flying tonight.

Not that this is a huuuuuuge deal, but I like to stay as legal as possible...anyone know a way to revert one of the sticks back to the previous chart cycle?

I don't think so - have you reached out to SA's support team for the definitive answer? (we'll do the same)

Nah, it's not that big of a deal...I just threw my TAC in the cockpit for legal purposes and didn't really *need* the digital charts tonight (just stuck w/ SV map data).

But it's an interesting question for which an answer might be useful.

Hi Steve,

It is possible to do it manually, yes. Please contact support@seattleavionics.com for details as it cannot be done w/ the ChartData Manager. Interesting idea for a future feature, however.

Thanks, Steve

As noted...no need this time around, but yeah, it might be a nice feature (ability to select "Current" or "Next" chart data cycle for download to the stick).
