Making USB Connections Between

iWAY™250c and Computers

This instruction sheet supplements your iWAY™ 250c manual. It ex-

plains the proper method for connecting and disconnecting the unit to a

computer using the USB-to-PC cable. While the iWAY's hard drive con-

tains the mapping data and operating systems, the removable MMC or

SD card stores the music and photo files. The USB cable will allow you

to access the memory card for music and photo file transfer.

Caution:

If you do not connect the iWAY to your computer correctly it

could prevent you from successfully transferring music and

photo files.

The iWAY acts like an additional removable disk drive when connected

to a computer running the Microsoft®Windows®2000 or Windows®XP

operating systems. The iWAY is not compatible with earlier Windows

versions.

Connecting

1. Turn on the unit.

2. Switch the unit's Power Key setting from Standby mode to Power Off

mode. To change the setting, access the Options menu, select Page 2

and choose INTERFACE SETUP. Select POWER OFF from the Power Key menu

in the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Close the menu and return to the map display.

4. Plug in the USB connector to the USB port on your computer and

connect the other end of the cable to the iWAY. The computer will rec-

ognize the iWAY and assign it a drive letter.

If you have an MMC or SD card in the iWAY your computer will read

the card. If you do not have a card in the iWAY your computer will read

the iWAY's hard drive.

You must have a card in the unit to transfer music or photo files be-

cause the files are stored directly on the card.

Transferring files

Download music and photo files to the iWAY the same way you would

normally move or copy files by following your computer's operating sys-

tem instructions.

Disconnecting

Windows XP

1. Wait until file operation (such as transferring files) is finished. Copy-

ing files to the iWAY is complete when the copy dialog box goes away.

2. Disconnect the cable from the computer and the iWAY. The com-

puter and GPS unit are ready for other tasks.

Windows 2000

Wait until file operation (such as transferring files) is finished. Confirm

that your file operation is complete by using the Eject command:

1. Right-click the iWAY drive letter. This can be found by first double-

clicking the "My Computer" icon on the Windows desktop.

2. If the file is still copying or another file operation is under way you

will see the standard Windows hourglass symbol. When the hourglass

disappears the file has finished copying. Unplug the USB cable and

resume other tasks.

3. If you right-click the reader's drive letter and instead of the hour-

glass symbol a pop-up menu appears click EJECT.

A. If no "wait" or warning message appears unplug the USB cable

and resume other tasks.

B. If a "wait" message appears follow the directions and give the unit

a few moments to finish the file operation then repeat the Eject com-

mand. If no other message appears unplug the USB cable.

C. If you click EJECT and a "Cannot Unmount Volume" message ap-

pears click CONTINUE. You can now safely unplug the USB cable.

Cannot Unmount Volume message. This may appear when trying to

Eject the iWAY while using Windows 2000 operating systems.

Remember: No matter what computer operating system you are using,

you must always wait until any file operation is finished before you dis-

connect the USB cable. If you have questions, refer to your computer

operating system instructions to determine the completion indicators

for various file operations.
