2.6  Connection to PC (storage unit) 

When  TwoNav  Aventura  is  connected  to  the  PC  by  means  of  the  USB  wire,  the  TwoNav 
application is closed 

and the device becomes a “storage unit”. Two new storage units will then 

be shown on your PC: 

 

Local disk: inner memory of the device 

 

Removable disk: SD card that may be inserted into the device. 

 

This way  you  will be able to transfer data from the PC to the  Aventura and vice versa. Please 
note that the folders to save data in the TwoNav Aventura in the memory card are: 

 

Maps: TwoNavData\Maps 

 

Data (Waypoints, routes and tracks): TwoNavData\Data 

 

Important

: While connected to the PC, TwoNav cannot be operated. If the device is connected 

to another external source (car or wall charger) you will be able to do it. 

 

Even  „copy/pasting‟  files  is  possible  from  Windows  explorer,  it  is  highly  recommended  to  use 

CompeGPS  Land

  PC  software  to  manage  them.  CompeGPS  Land  allows  easily  creating, 

editing and transferring files to TwoNav, becoming a necessary reference to have an advanced 
control over your outdoor trips. (

2.7  Using the electronic compass 

TwoNav Aventura is fitted with a digital compass so you have accurate information available on 
the directions to follow even if you are stopped. 

To be able to use the information supplied by the compass you must follow two steps: 

1. 

Adjusting  the  compass:  Go  to  „Main  Menu  >  Configuration  >  System  >  Calibrate 
Compass‟.  Once  inside  the  adjusting  utility,  place  the  device  on  a  horizontal  position 
and just turn it slowly for a few seconds. 

2. 

Go  to  „Main  Menu  >  Configuration  >  Display  >  Bearing‟  and  select  „Automatic‟.  This 
way,  the  information  coming  from  the  compass  will  be  considered  when  you  are 
stopped  or  driving  very  slowly  (in  these  cases,  the  GPS  information  is  less  reliable  to 
determine orientation). 

 

Note

: Adjustments must be made outdoors and far from sources of alterations of the magnetic 

field, such as cars, buildings or electric lines. For further safety, it is recommended to adjust the 
compass prior to any outings.   

 

2.8  Updating the software 

The  TwoNav  software  is  continually  being  improved  in  order  to  add  new  functionalities  and 
polish possible errors. 

TwoNav has to software levels:
