Portable Installation
Like many Lowrance products, the GlobalMap is capable of portable

operation by using an optional portable power pack. The power pack

and the magnet-equipped antenna module expand the uses for your

GPS unit.
The portable power pack makes it easy to transfer your unit from a

boat to a car, recreational vehicle, airplane or other vehicle without

drilling and mounting a second bracket. You can use the unit in your

car or boat, then take it along when riding in a friend's vehicle that's

not equipped with GPS. The portable power pack includes a sealed, re-

chargeable battery.

MMC or SD Card Memory Card Installation

Your GlobalMap uses a MultiMedia Card to store information, such as

custom maps, waypoints, trails and other GPS data. The unit can also

use Secure Digital Cards (SD card or SDC) to store data.
NOTE:

Throughout this manual, we will use the term MMC, but just re-
member that your unit can use an MMC or SD card to store data.

Both of these solid-state flash memory devices are about the size of a

postage stamp. An SD card is slightly thicker than an MMC. As this

manual went to press, MMCs and SD cards were available in various

storage capacities up to 1 gigabyte. Additional MMC cards are avail-

able from LEI Extras; see ordering information inside the back cover of

this manual.
MMCs and SD cards are also available at many camera and consumer

electronics stores. The MMC slot is located in a compartment on the

front of the case. The compartment door is located at the lower right

corner. The following figure shows a close-up with the door opened.
