How to update Amap EKP IV. I downloaded a zipped file to the computer. In the zipped file are two files that match files on the compac card. If I move the zipped file to the compact card will the GPS do the update or do I delete the files on the card and copy the new files to it?

In order to update your EKP you need a CF reader, you cannot update your CF without it. First of all download and unzip the update files from our support section. Enable the show of hidden files. Create on your Desktop the folder 'Old CF' and copy in it all the files from the CF (is the backup folder if something goes wrong). Omit to copy the 'CHARTS' folder. Create on your Desktop the folder 'New CF' and copy in it the same files you copied in 'Old CF'. Replace the files format swx in 'New CF' with the ones you downloaded from internet. Ovewrite the files in the cF with the ones in 'New CF' (do not touch the CHART folder). Turn on the EKP and verify if the procedure was correctly executed. If not, reinstall in the CF the files from 'Old CF' and repeat the procedure. NOTE! : this procedure can delete all user marks from the RAM. Save them first in the CF with File Manager. NOTE! For the update of 21/oct/10 you will need to update the Jeppesen cycle to !
