Working with Memory Cards
88
Data Exchange via Card Reader
If you wish to copy large quantities of data (MP3 files, navigation maps) to the memory
card, these can also be stored directly to the memory card.
Many computers already have memory card devices. Insert the card into your computer
and copy the data directly to the card.
Because of the direct access you can achieve a much higher transfer rate compared to
using ActiveSync®.
Additional Card Material
Your navigation system is already equipped with digitalised map material in the internal
memory and/or memory card at the factory. Depending on the configuration, additional
maps may be included on your navigation CD/DVD. You will be able to transfer these
cards to a memory card immediately. It is recommended that you use an external card
reader (see also page 88). The GoPal Assistant supplied with the device enables a simple
and individual compilation of the map material to be transferred.
Depending on the amount of map data on the navigation CD/DVD, memory cards with
capacities of 256 MB, 512 MB, 1.024 MB or more may be required.
You can obtain additional memory cards in specialist stores.
Transfer of card material to a memory card
The transfer of additional card material to a memory card can take place through Explorer
on your PC via the following steps:
1.
Insert the CD/DVD with the card material required.
2.
Start your workstation and select your CD/DVD Drive.
3.
Copy the file with the
.psf
ending out of the Directory of the region that you re-
quire to the
MapRegions
Directory on your memory card, from the CD/DVD.
You can transfer several files with map material to your memory card, depending on the
capacity of the memory card.
If you have copied digitized maps of several countries or country groups onto your mem-
ory card, you will be required to select the desired map in the navigation
application of your device.
