Map Download to Your Smartphone
To use CoPilot on your Smartphone, you first need to download map data
from your desktop or laptop computer to your mobile device. You select the
data to download from one or more regions that you specify in the CoPilot
application on your desktop. It’s a simple process.
To begin the data download process, open the application on your
desktop/laptop, then click the Data Download Wizard icon or pick Data
Download Wizard from the File menu. CoPilot gives you two options for
downloading data:
· Download directly to your Smartphone using a Storage Card Reader —
follow steps (1), (2), and (3a) below.
· Download to a hard drive on your computer, then manually copy the
data to your Smartphone using ActiveSync — follow steps (1), (2), and
(3b) below.
(1) Choose a Storage Location:
1. Open the CoPilot application on your desktop/laptop, then click
the Data Download Wizard icon in the sidebar on the left. Make
sure your Smartphone is synchronized. CoPilot will scan your
computer to detect which
drive options are available.
2. Click on the Drive Name pick list
that appears and select either the
drive letter of your Storage Card
Reader (if you are using one) or
the drive letter of your Hard Drive
(e.g. C). Click Next.
(2) Select a Data Area:
Select a data area using one of three methods (see Data Selection Options
p. 13-19 for a description of each method):
City Radius to select an area around a town or city;
Map Area to select an area directly from the map;
Trip to select a corridor along a route between two places.
(3) Download the Data:
(3a) Using a Storage Card Reader:
1. Make sure the Storage Card for your Smartphone is inserted in the
Storage Card Reader.
2. Clicking the Download icon will take you to a screen where
Available Area(s) for download are displayed on the left. To designate
an area to include in the download, highlight it and then click on the
right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download
list on the right. To take an area off the list, highlight it and click the
left arrow button.
3. After confirming that the area(s) you would like to download are in the
Data Included in This Download list, click Download to complete the
map data download process (see Download Options, p. 19-20).
4. Remove the Storage Card from the Storage Card Reader and insert it
into the Smartphone. Your data is now ready to be used by CoPilot.
(3b) Using ActiveSync:
1. Ensure that your Smartphone is connected to the desktop/laptop via
ActiveSync.
2. Clicking the Download icon will take you to a screen where
Available Area(s) for download are displayed on the left. To designate
an area to include in the download, highlight it and then click on the
right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download
list on the right. To take an area off the list, highlight it and click the
left arrow button.
3. After confirming that the area(s) you would like to download are in the
Data Included in This Download list, click Download to complete the
map data download process (see Download Options, p. 19-20).
4. On the desktop, double click the My Computer icon. Navigate to the
drive letter you downloaded the data to. The data you downloaded will
be in a folder named "CoPilot". For example, if you had chosen Drive
C, the data would be in the folder "C:\CoPilot\".
5. Copy the CoPilot folder by right clicking on it and selecting Copy.
6. Open ActiveSync and click on the Explore icon. Navigate to the
Smartphone's Storage Card. Use the menu option Edit > Paste to
copy the folder to your Smartphone's Storage Card.
