3.5 Database Updates
The GTN utilizes various databases. The Navigation, Basemap, SafeTaxi, and Obstacle databases reside
internal to the GTN, while the Terrain and Charts databases are stored on the removable memory card
located in the vertical slot on the left side of the GTN. The following describes each database and how the
databases are updated. See Table 3-1 for a summary of the database location and update rate. The GTN
Database card, Garmin P/N 010-00900-00, includes the Basemap, Obstacle, SafeTaxi, and Navigation
databases.
CAUTION
The databases on the GTN Database Card are locked to specific GTN installations. The
first time the GTN Database Card is inserted into a GTN, it associates exclusively with
that particular GTN and will not work in other installations.
