Sharing waypoints and routes
The waypoint and route import/export feature allows two or more 941 or 95x units to conveniently
“share” all the same waypoints and routes.
Only one unit, designated the “master,” enters the import/export function.
The other unit can
remain in normal operation as long as you don’t actually add or modify its waypoints or routes
during the transfer process.
Any screen can be displayed during the transfer process, including the
IMPORT DATA
screen or the
EXPORT DATA
screen. You can designate either of the two units as the
master because both units are able to import and export waypoints and routes; but once you select
the master, make sure you select the correct function for what you want to do (import copies way-
points and routes into the master unit; export copies waypoints and routes from the master unit).
Connecting the two units
The two units must be properly connected using the auxiliary head ports. For interfacing details, it is
recommended that you first see your local Northstar dealer. You also can review the
Northstar 951/
952 Installation Manual
(P/N GM1505C).
Moving waypoints and routes into a master unit (import)
When you move and routes into unit 1 (the designated master) from unit 2, the
entire contents
of
unit 2 are imported into unit 1. Also, if any waypoint or route name matches exist, the waypoints or
routes from unit 2
overwrite
the waypoints or routes already in unit 1.
NOTE:
If you press any function key on the master unit during the
transfer, the error message
TRANSFER ABORTED BY KEY
HIT
will be displayed, the process will be aborted, and the
master unit will display the particular screen accessed by that
function keypress. You can press any key on the other unit,
however, without interrupting the transfer process.
To purposely stop the transfer at any time, press the
STOP
key. If you press the
STOP
key, the master unit displays the
dialog-box message
TRANSFER ABORTED BY KEY HIT
,
and the status bar displays the message
TRANSFER
ABORTED
. Waypoints and routes transferred up to that point
are in the receiving unit (be aware that a particular route may
not contain all of its waypoints due to the transfer interruption).
Press the
START
key again to re-start the entire transfer pro-
cess (this means that all waypoints and routes, not just the
ones already in the receiving unit and the ones left to be trans-
ferred, are re-transferred).
