grant 44 Posted June 27, 2024 Share Posted June 27, 2024 i've downloaded new charts for open CPN but its not happy because my cell permit/subscription has expired. It's been a few years since I first set this up (probably why this has expired) do I need to buy another permit in the O'shop? What to check I'm on the right track before spending the 12.50 Euros Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ricka 3 Posted June 27, 2024 Share Posted June 27, 2024 The new cell permit comes from The NZ ENC service https://encservice.linz.govt.nz/sites/default/files/2020-07/Guide to NZ ENC Permit_0.pdf Once you get it all going again write down what you did for future reference as you unfortunately will need to do it again sometime.

geoff-halo 21 Posted July 3, 2024 Share Posted July 3, 2024 Hi Grant, Lots of discussion on this subject here: https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f134/nz-charts-s-63-a-263226.html Personally I'm keeping my life simple by sticking with the RNC raster charts that are still available in the OpenCPN Chart Downloader. Fine for my recreational coastal cruising 😀 Cheers, Geoff 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grant 44 Posted July 4, 2024 Author Share Posted July 4, 2024 thanks Geoff i've found my LINZ log on and think I have the right permits on the way now Not sure how long the Raster charts will be around for, i understand they are a seperate item made just for download where as the ENC is their main product they need to provide. We are in a good spot in that we get them free in NZ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
