Software Upgrades and Chart Downloads

Software

Unless marked (This is the full product), these are upgrades to the latest versions for existing users. In which case they just consist of the executable and help files, also sometimes the config file. They must be installed over an existing installation by unzipping them in the install directory to work correctly. "Full products" are stand alone installations.

ESL Chart Library
These ESL chart files include the chart and layer files, also the waypoint files in both Windows and DOS format (.wpt and .wps). Always unzip the downloaded file in the \charts directory. If using with PN DOS move the .wps waypoint file to the \routes directory. Also note that you will need to rename any long filename files to 8 characters for ease of use with DOS. In general when unzipping there should be no file name conflicts since new versions of charts generally have a different name e.g. Cherbourg 2.

Europe with waypoints (major coastal towns & ports)
Cherbourg 2
Mediterranean Sea, Barcelona to Rome
Southern Brittany passage chart
Portsmouth to Chichester (Example of an internet download based chart}

User Submitted Chart Library
Charts submitted by Portable Navigator Users.
Note - ESL has tested these charts and, while they appear to be correct, ESL takes no responsibility for their accuracy. Like all electronic charts, they should not be used as the only source of information for navigation.
