PC Connectivity
The HN7 connects to your PC using the Mini-USB port located on the
side panel
.
Treat the Mini-USB port with care. Make sure that the plug is around the right
way, and do not force the plug into the socket when connecting the cable.
The HN7 can be connected to a Windows™ PC for the following purposes:
•
Installing the Hema Navigator Explorer software and maps.
•
Accessing the contents of the NAVIGATOR MicroSD Card.
•
Using the NaviExtras Toolbox software to perform updates, and
purchase or activate products through the Online Store such as extra
mapping and functionality.
•
Using the Hema Navigator Explorer software to create and transfer
data.
NOTE
The HN7 and PC software is only compatible with Microsoft Windows
XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Ongoing compatibility and support for Windows XP cannot be
guaranteed due to the ending of Microsoft support for this operating
system.
WARNING
: Changing the content or re-formatting of the Resident Flash (on-
board memory) inadvertently may render the device inoperable and void your
warranty. Do not do so unless instructed by the Hema Support Team.
The NAVIGATOR can connect to a Windows™ based PC in either
Mass Storage
or
Windows Sync
mode.
When the Mini-USB cable (supplied with the NAVIGATOR) is plugged into the
PC and the Mini-USB connector inserted into the device, the NAVIGATOR will
connect in the mode defined in the settings. See the
Settings Menu > USB
section of this User Guide for further details of the connection modes.
Note: The HN7 is pre-set to
Mass Storage
mode.
The full size USB port is for the connection of a USB memory stick (not included
or supplied by Hema) to access media such as photos, music, videos and
OziExplorer format maps.
Note: A USB memory stick needs to be formatted for FAT32 or exFAT file
systems to enable it to be recognised by the HN7. To view the USB stick file
system, Place the USB stick in your PC, right click on the USB drive in Windows
Explorer and click Properties.
For more information on using an USB memory stick with your HN7, visit the
