Backing up your system data
Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks that you create are filed in your system. It is recommended to
regularly copy these files and your system settings files as part of your back-up routine. The
files can be copied to a card inserted in the card reader.
There are no export file format options for the system settings file. The following output
formats are available for exporting Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks files:
• User Data File version 5
This is used to import and export waypoints and routes with a standardized universally
unique identifier (UUID), which is very reliable and easy to use. The data includes such
information as the time and date when a route was created.
• User Data File version 4
This is best used when transferring data from one system to another, since it contains all
the extra bits of information these systems store about items.
• User Data file version 3 (w/depth)
Should be used when transferring user data from one system to a legacy product
(Lowrance LMS, LCX)
• User data file version 2 (no depth)
Can be used when transferring user data from one system to a legacy product (Lowrance
LMS, LCX)
• GPX (GPS Exchange, no depth)
This is the format most used on the web that shares among most GPS systems in the
world. Use this format if you are taking data to a competitor's unit.
• Northstar.dat (no Tracks)
Used to transfer data to a legacy Northstar device.
