Portable Installation
Like many Lowrance products, the GlobalMap Baja 480c is capable of
portable operation by using an optional portable power pack. The power
pack and the magnet-equipped antenna module expand the uses for
your GPS unit. The portable power pack makes it easy to transfer your
unit from a boat to a car, recreational vehicle, airplane or other vehicle
without drilling and mounting a second bracket. You can use your unit
in your own car or boat, then take it along when riding in a friend's ve-
hicle that's not equipped with GPS.
The portable power pack includes a sealed, rechargeable battery.
MMC or SD Card Memory Card Installation
Your GlobalMap Baja 480c uses a MultiMedia Card to store informa-
tion, such as custom maps, waypoints, trails and other GPS data. The
unit can also use Secure Digital Cards (SD card or SDC) to store data.
NOTE:
Throughout this manual, we will use the term MMC, but just re-
member that your unit can use an MMC or SD card to store data.
Both of these solid-state flash memory devices are about the size of a
postage stamp. An SD card is slightly thicker than an MMC. As this
manual went to press, MMCs and SD cards were available in various
storage capacities up to 1 gigabyte.
Additional MMC cards are available from LEI Extras; see ordering in-
formation inside the back cover of this manual. MMCs and SD cards
are also available at many camera and consumer electronics stores.
The MMC slot is located in a compartment on the front of the case. The
compartment door is located at the lower right corner. The following
figure shows a close-up with the door opened.
