Memory Cards Overview; Saving User Data And User Settings - Raymarine E70085 Dragonfly Operation Manual

7.1 Memory cards overview

You can use memory cards to archive data (e.g. waypoints and
tracks).
Memory cards can be used to archive your data when the
system capacity is reached. You can then delete old data from
your system, creating capacity for new data. The archived data
can be retrieved at any time. You can also use memory cards to
backup your data.
Note: Raymarine recommends that you backup your data to
a memory card on a regular basis.
Caution: Care of chart and memory
cards
To avoid irreparable damage to and / or loss of data
from chart and memory cards:
• Ensure that chart and memory cards are fitted
the correct way around. DO NOT try to force a
card into position.
• DO NOT save data (waypoints, tracks, and
so on) to a chart card, as the charts may be
overwritten.
• DO NOT use a metallic instrument such as a
screwdriver or pliers to insert or remove a chart
or memory card.
