After disassembling the dead SD cards I want to follow-up and correct my misunderstanding.Chris B wrote:The 8 GB SanDisk cards also have an improved locking mechanism design which is much harder to accidentally engage. If you unwittingly insert a 'locked' card into the slot, it cracks the card.
Then you've only ever updated NavData. Jepp NavData (updated every 28 days) is the only database that's stored internally inside the G1000's memory, is updated via the top slots, and then the update card is then removed.Colin wrote:I have never touched the lower card, I always put my updating card in the top slot, reboot, answer yes and then repeat on the PFD.
Hi Kyle -Kyle wrote:For what it's worth the Fly Garmin install does say to use the top slot card for NavData and bottom slot card for the rest but I have been able to update both the NavData and everything else by doing the install only on the cards from the bottom slot.
I've just installed the databases on both the bottom slot card from by MFD and on a regular SD card that I've just been using to log data on the top slot MFD. I want to see if there is a way I can update in the future without having to remember to remove the bottom slot cards when I leave the plane so I plan to attempt to install the databases tomorrow first using just the regular SD card in the top slot of both the MFD and the PFD and see if everything updates or just the NavData. If it's just the NavData, I'll see if I can use the same card in the bottom slot of both the PFD and the MFD to update everything. If that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to go back to removing both cards to install the updates.
