1. Data Catalog Chart Data (Nautical Charts, Satellite Photos and 3D data) must be installed on each NavNet 3D MFD’s internal memory before it can be used by the Plotter. The chart installation is handled from the Data Catalog menu page (as seen in Figure 1.1). To display the Data Catalog, press the [MENU] key. Turn the RotoKey to display the “Chart” page. Push the RotoKey and then turn the RotoKey clockwise to select the “Data Catalog” tab.
PAGE 3
1.3. Data List The Data List shows all the data installed on the MFD’s internal memory and gives basic information for each item installed. You can select the data by using the RotoKey or clicking on it with the cursor pad or a mouse (if installed). When an item in the list is selected, the preview screen automatically centers on it, giving basic information about the location of the data.
PAGE 4
2. MM3D Chart Data Available on the Internet 2.1. Download Charts from the Internet Any Charts and Satellite Photos (free or for pay) can be downloaded at any time from the Mapmedia website at http://www.mapmedia.com. Select the NavNet3D MM3D Catalog as shown in Figure 2.1: Figure 2.1 The various tabs at the top of the Chart Catalog (as shown in Figure 2.2) allow you to select the data provider of the charts you want to download.
PAGE 5
Once you click on a tab, click on the map to select an area: Figure 2.3 Roll the mouse over the map (or select the chart number from the pull down menu) to see the coverage of each area: Figure 2.4 When you click on a chart area, links appear at the bottom of the screen allowing you to download the corresponding data: Figure 2.
PAGE 6
Each link redirects you to a page where you can see the actual coverage of the file (and see if multiple files are required). The map is interactive, meaning that you can pan or zoom: Figure 2.6 To download the file, find the download button at the center of the area (surrounded in red on the picture above) and put the cursor over it. A link will appear allowing you to download the corresponding ZIP file. Figure 2.7 2.2.
PAGE 7
To copy a single file (such as a high resolution Satellite Photo area), right click on the file you unzipped (ending with “.dba” for satellite picture) and choose “Copy”. (See Figure 2.7) Warning: Do NOT rename the file or change its extension. Figure 2.7 How to copy multiples files (such as a Chart Pack): Multiple files can be copied on the same SD-Card as long as the total size (size of all the files combined) is less than 2GB.

2.3.2. Paste the Chart Data Note: Please refer to the Appendix at the end of this document (Section 6.) to learn how to properly format the SD-Card or the USB flash drive prior to transferring the chart data. Insert a properly formatted 2GB SD-card into the SD-Card reader of the computer or a USB flash drive. If a folder doesn't automatically open, follow the instructions below: • Click Start and select “My Computer”. • Double-click on the Removable Disk.
PAGE 9
When the transfer is completed, remove the SD-Card or the Flash Drive from the computer. Note: To safely remove the SD-Card or Flash Drive, return to the “My Computer” window, right-click on the External Drive, then click Eject. 3. MM3D USB Hard-Drive Introduction The MM3D external USB hard-drive contains chart data that can be used with NavNet 3D.
PAGE 10
Figure 3.1 3.2. Hard-Drive File Structures The hard-drive contains multiple folders and subfolders. The first level allows you to choose the data provider (“NOAA USA”, “Jeppesen”, “Navionics”…) see Figure 3.1 Figure 3.1 Once you select the provider, you will be able to select the type of area (usually Wide or MegaWide). A PDF file located at this level will help you select the area you want (it lists the chart references with a description). Figure 3.
PAGE 11
Figure 3.3 3.3. Transfer Data to the SD-Card or Flash Drive Note: Please refer to the Appendix at the end of this document to learn how to properly format the SD-Card or Flash drive prior to pasting the chart data. Open the first folder “SDCARD1”. Select all the files inside the folder (CTRL-A or “Edit” > “Select All”). Copy all of the files (CTRL-C or “Edit” > “Copy”). (See Figure 3.6) Figure 3.

PAGE 13
Insert a properly formatted SD-card into the SD-Card reader of the computer. If the SDCard folder doesn't automatically open, follow the instructions below: • Click Start and select “My Computer”. • Double-click on the Removable Disk. The name of your external drive may vary. (See Figure 3.8) Figure 3.8 Paste the file(s) at the root of the SD-Card/Flash drive folder (CTRL-V or “Edit” > “Paste”). (See Figure 3.

4. How to Install New Data onto the MFD 4.1. Introduction When you purchase a Chart Pack, the data (charts, 3D, Sat. Photo) may be split into multiple files that must be loaded onto multiple SD-Cards. Satellite Photos for the U.S. are divided into specific areas, with each area fitting on one SD-Card. On the MFDBB a USB Flash Drive can be used to load multiple areas at the same time. Make sure however to not overload the MFDBB memory.
PAGE 15
The transfer will begin and a window displaying a progress bar will appear (as seen in Figure 4.5). Figure 4.5 4.3. Unlock Chart Data Note: Unlock Codes are not necessary for the USA NOAA Data (U.S. Satellite Photos, NOAA S57 Vector Charts or NOAA Raster Charts). This section applies only to Chart Packages that have been purchased. Charts not included as standard on the NavNet 3D MFD are encrypted because of royalty payments due to each Hydrographic Office.
PAGE 16
An Unlock Code can only authorize one specific area (one Unlock Code per area per type of chart - Raster or Vector). An Unlock Code is linked to a specific SystemID (the same Unlock Code cannot be used to unlock the same area on different systems). The Unlock Code may be entered at any time from the Chart Catalog. Right Click on the area whose status is “Locked” and choose “Insert Unlock Code” (as seen in Figure 4.8) Figure 4.
PAGE 17
o SDUS00VS57MAP04.dbv (US East Coast) o SDUS01VS57MAP04.dbv (US West Coast) - USA 3D Bathymetric (no Unlock Code required) o SDUS00MAP3D03.dbt (Entire USA) - 1 Satellite Photo Areas (no Unlock Code required) o SDUS22SAT01.dba (Miami and the Keys) - 3 C-MAP by Jeppesen areas o SDVJNAM022MAP01.dbv = Jeppesen Charts for East Coast and Bahamas o SDVJNAM023MAP01.dbv = Jeppesen Charts for Gulf and Rivers o SDVJNAM024MAP01.
PAGE 18
A confirmation window will appear (as seen in Figure 5.2). Warning: This operation cannot be cancelled. Make sure you are removing the correct files before confirming. If purchased chart data is deleted by mistake, you can re-load the charts using an SD-Card and the original Unlock Code(s). Figure 5.2 Note: If you deleted the wrong area by mistake, you can download this data from the Mapmedia website.

6. Appendix 6.1. How to Format an SD-Card 6.1.1. Introduction SD-Cards must be formatted properly before transferring files to them for use with NavNet 3D. You can use the default function of Windows (Vista/XP or 2000) however we highly recommend you use a formatting program that complies with the SD Memory Card specification. 6.1.2. Format an SD-Card Using Software (recommended) Download and Install the formatting software available at: http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/sd_formatter.
PAGE 20
6.1.3. Format an SD-Card Using Windows Insert the SD-Card into the SD-Card reader of the computer. If the SD-Card folder automatically opens, close it. Click Start and select “My Computer”. Right-click on the Removable Disk and choose “Format…” (see Figure 6.3). The name of your removable drive may vary. Figure 6.3 Select “FAT” and “Quick Format” then click on “Start” (see Figure 6.4) Figure 6.4 6.2. How to format a USB Jump Drive Insert the USB Flash Drive into the USB2.0 port of the computer.
PAGE 21
Figure 6.5 Select “FAT32” and “Quick Format” then click on “Start” (see Figure 6.6) Figure 6.6 6.3. Recommended SD-Card Furuno USA offers compatible 2GB SD cards (part number SD1-BNK-003). If you are purchasing blank SD cards from an alternate source, we strongly recommend you use only 2GB SanDisk SD-Cards, as they have been tested by Furuno USA for transferring data to NavNet 3D.
