• Creating new Folders: You can also create new folders for your route files to be
saved in. Exit the file you have open by using the
Up One Level option. Use the
Arrow joystick to highlight New Folder and press ENTER.
Use the displayed keyboard to enter a name for the folder. When the name is
correct, highlight
OK and press ENTER. The new folder is now highlighted. Press
ENTER to access this folder. Since there isn’t any route files in this folder, you will
need to use the
New Route File option to create a new file before you can add a
route.
Using the Filing System with Track Logs
• Track logs are saved differently from POIs and routes in
that there is only one track log per file. Also, you can’t set
a default file for track logs. The eXplorist automatically
accesses the internal Tracklog folder.

highlight
Active Track and press ENTER. Use the Arrow
joystick to highlight

you can now browse through the file structure to find the
folder you want to save the track log in. When you have
selected the desired location, highlight
Save in here and
press ENTER.
Use the displayed keyboard to enter a name for the track log file. When the name
is correct, highlight
OK and press ENTER. The track log you are saving will
automatically be stored in the new file and you will be returned to the last viewed
Map screen.
• Creating new Folders: You can also create new folders for your track log files to be
saved in. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight
New Folder and press ENTER. (The
New Folder option is displayed only when you are saving your active track.)
Use the displayed keyboard to enter a name for the folder. When the name is
correct, highlight
OK and press ENTER. The new folder is now highlighted. Press
ENTER to access this folder.
During the instruction portions of this manual, instructions will not describe all of the things
you can do within the file system. When an instruction is given to save a POI, details about
creating new folders, new files, etc. will be omitted.
