Downloading Maps
An internet connection is required to obtain map data, however, users can cache map data on a
node beforehand. For map caching follow these steps:
1.
Attach the radio to a laptop and open the advanced tab.
2.
Set the Virtual IP address, netmask and gateway to values appropriate for your local
network. Your local network should be able to access the internet.
3.
Attach the radio to your local network and open the Map Overlay tab.
4.
Input the address of the location you wish to download
5.
You now have two options for caching map data:
a.
Zoom/pan around the area you are interested in at the zoom level you will be
using. This will automatically cache the map data at this zoom level.
b.
Fill in the radius field (in meters), set the Min/Max zoom levels and click on
‘Seed the Map’. This
is a beta feature and will attempt to cache the entire area
for all appropriate zoom levels. Users should be careful in using this feature
since it may take some time and will use up the radio’s available memory. For
reference, a radius of ~3000m will use approximately 5 percent of the total
memory.
