GPS Data Files:
GPS Data files contain waypoints, routes, trails and event marker
icons. Instructions for copying GPS Data Files between your computer
and an MMC are contained in the instruction manual for your MMC
card reader and MapCreate 6 software.
GPS data automatically recorded in the unit's internal memory must
be saved to the MMC (as a GPS Data File) in order to store it on your
personal computer. GPS Data Files stored on an MMC must be copied
from the card to the iFINDER's internal memory before the unit can
read them. Here's how:
1. Insert the MMC into your unit. Press
MENU| to TRANSFER MY
DATA|ENT and the screen below appears.
The Transfer My Data submenu asks if you want to save data to the
MMC or load data from the MMC into the iFINDER's memory.
2. If no MMC is present, a message will appear letting you know there
is no card in the iFINDER. You must insert a card to activate the Load
or Save commands.
To transfer data from the iFINDER to the MMC, press
ENT.
To transfer data from the MMC to iFINDER, press to
LOAD|ENT.
3. Saving: To accept the default name Data for the GPS Data File,
press to
SAVE|ENT. If you wish to rename the file (as in the example
below), press
ENT to activate the selection box. Press or to change
the first character, then press to the next character and repeat until
the name is correct. Then, press
ENT| to SAVE|ENT.
The unit will display a completion message when the data transfer is
finished. To return to the main page display, press
EXIT repeatedly.
