Transfer Custom Maps and GPS Data Files

Custom Maps
Custom maps work only from the MMC card or SD card unless you

have a hard drive model. When a card containing a Custom Map File is

loaded into the unit, it automatically loads the map into memory when

the unit is turned on.
Instructions for copying Custom Map Files to an MMC are contained in

the instruction manual for your MMC card reader and MapCreate soft-

ware. For instructions on inserting an MMC into the GlobalMap Baja,
see Sec. 2, Installation/Accessories
.

NOTE:

To load a Navionics

®

chart, see Sec. 5 for the entry Navionics Charts.

GPS Data files
GPS Data Files contain waypoints, routes, trails and event marker

icons. Instructions for copying GPS Data Files between your computer

and an MMC are contained in the instruction manual for your MMC

card reader and MapCreate software.
GPS data automatically recorded in the unit's internal memory must

be saved to the MMC (as a GPS Data File) in order to store it on your

personal computer (If you have an HD model, these can also be saved to

the hard drive.). GPS Data Files stored on an MMC must be copied

from the card to the GlobalMap Baja's internal memory before the unit

can read them. Here's how:
1. Insert the MMC into your unit. Press
