The NAVMAN 570 PIN is I assume a PDA. If so you should have got software and a cable with it that connects your PC (or laptop) to your PDA. The instructions on how to connect the PDA to your PC should have come with your PDA. Once you have communication between the PDA and the PC you load OziExplorer CE by following the instructions that come with your PDA and Ozi. Alternatively you may have a WiFi or Bluetooth connection, but either way in general terms the approach is the same.

I run with a HP IPAQ HX4700 and the communication software between the PC and PDA is called ActiveSync which detects when the PC and PDA are connected. I haven't yet bothered with Bluetooth of WiFi.

Good luck and I hope you will really enjoy the PDA once its up and running.

I use Ozi on my Navman 570. As the previous post suggests you load Ozi CE from the PC to the PDA in the same way you load any other software, through Active Sync. Then set up the communication between the Navman and Ozi, on mine it is Comm port 8, Baud 9600. I remove the Navman SD card and use another card loaded with the appropriate maps.

Personally I prefer to use Ozi on he laptop but the Navman works OK.

Hi Blue,
From memory the OziCe install program loads th software onto the PDA. The PDA needs to be connected to the PC. As the navman runs Windoes CE - active sync is the program the handles the connection from your PC to the PDA.

You may need to install active sync on your PC first, connect the PC to the PDA, then run the OziCe setp program on your PC.

OziCe can run maps from the PC version how ever the images need to be in a plain graphics format like jpg. If you have tiff fiels (1:240k auslig maps) you will nedd to use the program Img2ozf.exe to convert them into an 'ozf' format that both the PC and PDA oziexplorer can use.
You can keep you original images on your PC and just push the ozf files to the PDA.

good luck
