Importing and Exporting Nav Objects
You can import files that contain Nav Objects to serve as a quick and easy method
for updating your database. Likewise, you can export your Nav Objects to a file in
order to share or move your data to another location.
To Import Nav Objects
Open the Data Manager (System | Data Manager).
Under Data Collection, select Nav Objects from the drop-down list; then select
Import/Export from the window pane containing the Nav Objects.
Click the Import button at the bottom of the window pane. The Open dialog
appears.
Browse to the location, or folder, where the Nav Objects file is located; then
select it. The Open Dialog default folder is the one that was opened or C:\
JeppData if the import feature has not yet been used.
Click the Open button. The message Allow Duplicate Nav Objects appears.
Click the Yes, No, or Cancel buttons.
Yes. Imports duplicates exactly so they are stacked directly on top of each
other. The only check for duplicates is Name, Location, and object type.
No. Completely updates the existing nav object in the boat’s database with
the duplicate found in the file.
Cancel. Stops the import.
To Export Nav Objects
Open the Data Manager (System | Data Manager).
Under Data Collection, select Nav Objects from the drop-down list; then select
Import / Export. A list of Nav Objects in your current database appears.
Select the Nav Object(s) you want to export. Click the Select All and De-Select
All buttons as needed. Select more than one nav object by simply clicking them.
You can press and hold the
H key to select a range of Nav Objects in the list
by clicking the first Nav Object you want to include in the range and the last
one you want to include in the range. You can sort the Nav Objects in the list by
clicking on column headers.
Click the Export button. The Save As dialog appears.
Browse to the location, or folder, to where you want to export the file. The default
file name is boatname-yyyymmdd_hhmm.nod,
For example: SSJeppesen-20060828_0800.nod. Change this file name by typing
a different name in the File name box.
Click Save.
A message detailing the number of Nav Objects in the export appears.
