Information:
GPX (GPS eXchange Format) is a XML data format that allows you to transfer GPS data
(including waypoints, routes, and tracks) between your device and the computer. If
you have downloaded a gpx file from a third party website, you can install this file to
your device. While using your device, the recordings will be saved as the gpx files on the
device. You can also retrieve the recordings from your device to the computer and then
share them on the website.
To transfer gpx files between your device and the computer:
1. Ensure the track you have downloaded from the website is saved as a gpx file on the
computer.
2. Turn on your device and then connect it to the computer. When prompted, select
the
Connect to PC
option. Once connected, you can find two external mass-storage
drives on the computer:
Mgn_system
and
Mgn_data
.
3. Do one of the following:
• To install the track to your device, copy/paste the gpx file to
Mgn_data > Dodge >
Tracks
.
• To retrieve the recording from your device, copy/paste the gpx file from
Mgn_data
> Dodge > Tracks > Profile(user folder)
.
