I don’t use AutoChart so I’m not gonna be any help here ...
I’m sure someone with AutoChart experience will pop in ...

I've been using Autochart to map a local lake. I've noticed these red lines, which I think are tracks, showing everywhere I've been so far.
Is there a way to get rid of them when viewing the map screen? I thought I had them turned off but maybe they have to be on to use the Autochart feature on my Helix 10 1st generation? When I view the map view on other lakes that I've fished more, they are nearly solid red in many spots where I fish a lot. My understanding of tracks is so you can run the same route again; re-running a specific route is not something that is important to me.
2nd question is my waypoints do not show up in the Autochart software on my desktop. I've read the manual and I can't figure out how to get them to show up there. They were made while actively charting, I've checked the box in the software to show them but so far, have not been able to make them appear. If someone can help me get them to show up, I'd be much obliged. They show up on the unit as you can see in the picture but while working in the software at home, they are missing.
Yes, I was talking to myself; sometimes even I have to ask for expert advice.

If I’m not mistaken on the Helix, if u press the menu button once, it gives you the option to clear the current tracks which are the red lines.
The waypoints will have to be exported from the head unit and installed on the Autochart program separately. The ZEroline card keeps only the mapping info and the waypoints are stored on the head unit. That’s way the waypoints show up on the screen with navionics or lakemaster cards when installed.
Thank you, I got the waypoints on there; just as you said, they had to come from the nav. data on the card, they don't automatically get picked up by Autochart. They now show up on Autochart from the other lakes I've got info on as well.

Check Saved Track Default and Current Track settings under Nav Menu. The current track is automatically active when the unit is powered up. You would need to select Stop Tracking each time you power up to prevent from saving the track unless you want them saved.
Thanks, EZ, that's good to know. I didn't realize I had to do it each time.
