The communication between Land and other GPS depends on the type of connection used by your GPS and its connectivity protocols. This communication is not automatic and requires a previous configuration. Follow these steps to establish a connection between the two devices:
1. Connect your GPS to the computer and turn it on.
2. Press 'Main menu > Devices > Configure communications'. At 'General' configure the port used to connect your GPS to the computer (usually USB).
3. Next, select your GPS protocol, your GPS brand. Once selected, Land will assign a transfer speed automatically according to the chosen protocol (the speed is predefined for each protocol).
4. Press 'Auto-search GPS' and Land will try to establish connection with your device. This process may take a few minutes.
5. Land will automatically detect the device and show it as a new disc drive in ‘Data tree > Storage files > GPS’.

6. Under the device name, you will see several themed folders (maps/waypoints/routes). These are the files stored on your device.

NOTE: Folders name may vary according different GPS brands.
7. From now on you can transfer files between the two devices.
•From the data tree: Locate the file you want to transfer in the data tree and drag it to the destination folder. Transfer several files at once by pressing the ‘Control’ key while selecting them. Land will automatically transfer the file(s) you selected to the desired folder.

IMPORTANT: If no connection could be established, it may be due to GPS protocols not recognized by Land. In such situation, TwoNav would be grateful to receive your feedback and let us know about your problem at http://Support.TwoNav.com. Hopefully we will be able to update compatibility with your GPS.
