I have many user waypoints in my panel IFD. Does anyone know a way to get these into the IFD Trainer? I‘ve exported/saved them all to USB, but see no way to import them into the IFD Trainer app. Similarly, there is no way to save user waypoints manually entered into the IFD Trainer since the maintenance mode doesn‘t exist. Download logs just jumps to the Jepp database login. Or is there something I‘m missing?

This may sound cumbersome, but it's actually very easy and works:

- install the IFD100 app on your ipad

- connect it to your IFD at your plane

- for each flight plan that you care, activate it on the plane - it will sync to the ipad. save it on the ifd100 on the ipad with the waypoints

- go home and connect the ipad to the trainer

- for each of the saved flight plans, activate it on the ipad and then save the current flight plan on the trainer.

this should do the magic.
