Data Download
Step 4: Download the Data
When you’re ready to execute a download, the Wizard will display a list of Available Area(s) for download on the left side of the window. To designate an area to include in the download, click on it and then click on the right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download list.
Notice that the amount of available map memory and the memory required for all the areas on the Included list is shown under the list. NOTE: CoPilot's avail- able memory calculations subtract a certain amount from the available memory on your storage card (if you are using one) to account for support files.
If you need to move an area off the Included list, click on it and use the left arrow button. To delete an area from memory, click on it and click Delete.
IMPORTANT: Each data download overwrites the data that is already on your Pocket PC. If any data areas are already loaded on your Pocket PC, they will be overwritten by the new download. Therefore, your download must include all areas that you wish to have available on your Pocket PC.

Check Download Favorites to download your Favorites list from the Trip Planner window on your desktop along with map data. These addresses will then be available as Favorites for trip entry on the Pocket PC.
RECOMMENDED OPTION: It is recommended that you leave Create QuickStart checked (see p. 7 for a description of this feature). However, you may uncheck it if you don’t want the QuickStart copied with your download.
POI Download Options
When you download a data region, you’ll get all roads within that region. Also included with each download are regional points of interest (POI) such as gas sta- tions, hotels, restaurants, visitor attractions, etc.
CoPilot now lets you control the number and types of points of interest that get downloaded along with your data areas. You can save space on your Pocket PC by eliminating categories of POI that you’re not interested in seeing.
To select which POI categories you want, choose POI Download Options from the Edit menu in the desktop application or, when you first open the Data Download Wizard, click the Options button in the Wizard. In the window that opens, check the categories you wish to select. Click the plus sign next to each category to see the included
Click Save Settings to save the set of categories you create. Click Restore Default to return to CoPilot’s default categories.
Adding OV2 POI Sets
CoPilot supports OV2 POI files. You can copy any OV2 file into the CoPilot\Save folder on your storage card to get immediate access to the POIs it contains.
EXAMPLE: Copy an OV2 file named ‘Speedcams’ to Storage Card\CoPilot\Save. The next time you do a POI search you will see ‘Speedcams’ as a POI Type in the Custom Category.
Trip Transfer
CoPilot now transfers whole trips to your Pocket PC when you use the Trip option for data downloading. Any trip you create for download, including its Itinerary, is transferred along with the surrounding data corridor and will become the current trip on your Pocket PC.
The Trip download option creates a .TRP file that is saved to the “Save” directory on the Storage Card or CoPilot installation folder, depending on where you selected to downloaded data to. Subsequent downloads will add more .TRP files to this folder. The number of trips that may be stored is limited only by the available memory on your Pocket PC. If multiple trips are downloaded, the last one to be added will open as the current trip. Use the Saved Trip stop entry option on your Pocket PC to open stored .TRP files.
