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 available memory calculations subtract 15 MB 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 Include US Highway Network to download CoPilot’s complete US Highway Network along with your data. This additional download requires approximately 36 MB of space on your Pocket PC. When this network is loaded, major roads, cities, and some points of interest outside your selected data region will be shown on the map and you’ll be able to receive guidance as you drive anywhere in the United States.

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. 14 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 (but not roads outside the region). Also included with each download are regional points of interest (POI) such as gas stations, 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 sub-categories.

Click Save Settings to save the set of categories you create. Click Restore Default to return to CoPilot’s default categories.

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 placed in the Save directory in the CoPilot installation folder on your Pocket PC. 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.
