Transfer Custom Maps and GPS Data Files
Custom maps work only from the MMC card or SDC card. When a
card containing a Custom Map File is loaded into the unit, AirMap
automatically loads the map into memory when the unit is turned on.
Instructions for copying Custom Map Files to an MMC are contained in
the instruction manual for your MMC card reader and MapCreate 6
software. For instructions on inserting an MMC into AirMap,
see Sec. 2,
Installation/Accessories .
GPS Data files , containing waypoints, routes, trails and event marker
icons, must be copied from an MMC to AirMap's internal memory be-
