3.5 Database Updates
The GTN utilizes various databases. With the exception of the Navigation, Basemap, SafeTaxi, and
Obstacle databases which reside internal to the GTN, all databases are stored in a single SD memory card
that is inserted into the vertical slot on the left side of the GTN. The following describes each database and
how the databases are updated. See Table 3-1 for a summary of the database location and update rate. The
GTN Database card, Garmin P/N 010-00900-00, includes the Basemap, Obstacle, SafeTaxi, and
Navigation databases.
CAUTION
The databases on the GTN Database Card are locked to specific GTN installations. The
first time the GTN Database Card is inserted into a GTN, it associates exclusively with
that particular GTN and will not work in other installations.
