The eXplorist has a file structure system that is unlike any other filing system used before on a GPS receiver.
It is based on the file system that you are probably familiar with from using your personal computer.

This graphic displays the basic layout of
the file structure that is internal to the
eXplorist. When you insert a new SD card,
a similar file structure is created but
without any of the default files.

While it is possible to save files in any of
the folders (i.e., POIs could be saved in
the Routes folder), it is highly
recommended that you create new files in
the associated main topic folder. This will
make finding the POI or route much easier
when you need to access the file.

The Detail Maps and Geocaches folders
are empty until you upload a detailed map
from mapping software, such as Magellan

The files for POIs, routes, track logs and
geocaching points are ASCII text files.
When your eXplorist or SD card is
connected to your personal computer, you
can open these files using any text editor
and modify them to your needs. If you are
going to modify any of the files, you should
do so to a copy of the file. Mistakes in
modifying the files can cause unwanted
results.
