Handheld Options settings.
Notes
•
The fastest method for transferring maps is to use an SD card and an SD
card reader. You do not have to connect your device to your computer.
Just insert the SD card/reader into your computer and in the Exchange
dialog choose the drive for the SD card reader.
•
To make the best use of your device's memory, transfer maps to the
device's internal drive.
•
If you have the device's Connect to Computer method set to Data
Exchange, transfer will be slow as the device is not being used as an
external drive.
•
If you bypassed the Connect to Computer screen on the device, press
MENU, go to Device Setup > Connect to Computer > USB Setting and
select the option you want from the drop-down list.
•
To rename, delete, or send/receive a map, right-click the item in the
