DOWNLOADING USER WAYPOINTS
To save the set of user waypoints currently contained in the IFD,
start Maintenance Mode, go to the Update tab, and then select
the “Save Waypoints” item. After pressing the Proceed button,
the IFD will save the set of waypoints to a file named
“SAVEWPTS.CSV”. The saved file will have the same format
required for uploading user waypoints, and the description on the
first line will contain the date on which the waypoints were
downloaded.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If the USB fob already contains a file named
SAVEDWPTS.CSV when user waypoints are
downloaded, the IFD will overwrite the contents of
the file. To prevent data loss, consider transferring
the file to a personal computer or renaming the file
on the USB fob.
