SD card reader
Using the reader built into the RNS 510, it is possible
to read SD cards as used in mobile devices and PCs.
SD stands for “Secure Digital”. SD cards are
rewritable storage media (flash memory). The RNS510
can currently read SD cards with a capacity of up to
2 gigabytes. The card is controlled by a controller
integrated in the reader.
Depending on the memory card quality, different
reading speeds of up to 6Mb per second are
possible.
The reader used in the RNS 510 is programmed so
that only music and audio data (MP3, WMA and
PLAYLISTS) can be uploaded from the memory card to
the hard drive. Other data formats are not supported
by the device reading program (browser).
It is possible to store the data from the SD memory
card on the hard drive. However, it is not possible to
transfer data from the hard drive in the radio/
navigation system to an SD memory card (copyright).
The slot for the SD memory cards is on the control
panel and is not labelled. Its position depends on the
type of vehicle. In the Touareg, the slot is to the left of
the display and, in all other variants, it is underneath
the display.
