available TRX updates when the unit is
turned on. You’ll see a message that
tells you that there is map or software
updates available. Then, tap Settings
from the TRX Dashboard > tap Software
Update.
Note: You must be connected to WiFi to
perform software updates.
Q: Can I connect my phone to my TRX7?
You can connect your phone to the
TRX7 as a WiFi hotspot. However,
phone connectivity for file transfer,
streaming, or other phone services is
currently unavailable. See p. 5 for more
information on connecting to WiFi.
Q: How do I play music on my TRX7?
Insert a microSD card containing music
files into the SD card slot in the left side
of the TRX7 to play music on the TRX7.
Q: Is there a difference between the
three versions of the TRX7 (classic,
Powersports, and 4x4)?
A: Each of the currently available TRX7
devices come with a different type of
mounting hardware:
TRX7 (classic): windshield suction mount
TRX7 for Powersports: Genuine Ram®
Handlebar Rail Mount
TRX7 for 4x4 Vehicles: Genuine Ram®
Windshield Suction Cup Mount
Other than the variation in mounts, there
is NO difference between the three TRX7
devices.
Q: How should I mount my TRX7?
Mount your TRX7 to your vehicle
dashboard or low on your windshield
using the included RAM mount so that
your view is not blocked.
If you have a TRX7+ with a built-in
camera, mount the TRX7+ on your
dashboard or low on the windshield
so that your camera’s view is also
unobstructed.
Note: If your vehicle design makes it
difficult to mount your TRX7+ without
blocking the camera, unclip your TRX7+
from its cradle before taking a photo.
Tip:
You can bolt two RAM
Q: Are there other ways to mount my
TRX7 to my vehicle?
The TRX7 has an AMPS pattern
attachment on the cradle that allows you
to mount your TRX7 on many universal
aftermarket mounts (see p. 4 for the
device overview).
Magellan has partnered with RAM
Mounts, who provide numerous mounting
configurations for any vehicle. Go to
