Reference

notice that each route has an identifying number, 1-20. Suppose you
created a route in Route 1 and then saved it to your SD card. Next you
deleted that route from the Meridian and created a new route using the
same Route 1. Now you load the original route from your SD card. The
loaded route will replace the newly created one, even if you have “Empty”
route slots available.

Loading Track from Memory Card - After accessing the Card Utilities menu,
highlight “Load Track” and press [ENTER]. A list of saved tracks is displayed
using the filenames that you provided when saving them. Highlight the desired
filename and press [ENTER].

Loaded tracks always overwrite any existing track. If you think you might
need the existing track, be sure to save it prior to loading a track from the
SD card.

Deleting Files from Memory Card - After accessing the Card Utilities menu,
highlight “Delete File” and press [ENTER]. A list of all the files found on your
SD card is displayed. Highlight the desired filename and press [ENTER]. You
will be prompted to verify the deletion.

You will notice all of the waypoint/route and track files that you have
saved to this SD card, along with the image (.IMG) files for any detailed
maps you have uploaded. The filenames for the detailed maps are not the
names that you have supplied for the detailed map, but use instead
DETAILxx.IMG.

Testing the Memory Card - After accessing the Card Utilities menu, highlight
“Test Card” and press [ENTER]. The SD Card Test screen is displayed with
detailed information about the SD card you have installed. To begin the scan of
the card, press [ENTER]. Please note that this scan can take a very long time. If
you decide not to proceed with the scan, press [ESC] before beginning the scan.

This scan is a read/write scan to free memory space. It will not harm any
data that you have stored on your SD card.

Also note that when you access “Test Card”, the Meridian does some
checking and displays information on the SD card. One of the items
displayed is lost clusters. This is for reference only. While the Meridian
was checking the SD card, all lost clusters were recovered. This only
displays how many were found.
