This chapter provides information for saving and replaying data to and from memory cards, uploading and downloading data, loading waypoint data from Yeoman, and outputting data through the network.

The memory cards store these data: marks, lines, waypoints, routes, track, and setting data.

1.Insert a blank memory card into the card slot.

2.Press the [MENU] key followed by the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION, DATA TRANSFER, UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD DATA and SAVE DATA TO MEMORY CARD soft keys to show the SAVE DATA menu.
