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 6 software.

You must enter which way you want to transfer data, from an MMC

card to the unit (load) or from the unit to an MMC card (save).

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 per- sonal computer. GPS Data Files stored on an MMC must be copied from the card to the unit's internal memory before the unit can read them.
