Northstar Explorer 660 Installation and Operation Manual 8
1-2 Plug-in cards
The Explorer 660 can use two kinds of plug-in
card:
C-MAP™ chart cards have chart details
required for navigating in a particular region.
When a chart card is plugged in, the extra
details automatically appear on the Explorer
660 chart display.
C-MAP™ user cards are used to store
navigation data. Each user card expands the
Explorer 660 memory and allows the data to
be transferred to another Explorer 660 easily
(see section 13).
Note: The older 5 volt user cards are not
supported.

matter which slot a card is inserted in.
