3.3.1 GTN Software Loader Card Creation
A GTN Software Loader Card may be created using GTN Downloadable Software and an SD card in
conjunction with a GTN software application downloaded from the
Dealer Resource Center
on Garmin’s
website. The Dealer Resource Center will allow the technician to choose which software package(s) to
load onto the card.
NOTE
The downloadable application to create the GTN Software Loader Card only runs on PCs
with Windows. Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and Windows 7 are supported. There is no
Macintosh support at this time.
NOTE
An SD card reader is needed to create the GTN Software Loader card using the
application that is downloaded from Garmin. The approved readers are SanDisk®
SDDR-999 and SDDR-93, although other SD card readers will work.
Create a GTN Software Loader Card as follows:
1. Go to the
Dealer Resource Center
on Garmin’s website.
2. Download the GTN Software Loader Image. Refer to the Equipment List (P/N 005-00533-C1) for
the correct Software Loader Image part number.
3. Ensure that you have an SD card reader connected to the PC. Insert the GTN Downloadable
Software SD Card into the card reader.
4. Run the executable file. The screen shown in Figure 3-3 will appear.
