# 14)	Transferring flight data

Your flights can be transferred using a computer or a phone with the **Syride Link** software. Files are systematically copied locally and can also be sent to your online Syride flight logbook.

***

#### **Transfer to a computer (USB)**

1. Make sure you have installed the **Syride Link** software on your computer.
2. Turn on and connect your instrument to the computer using the USB cable.
3. The software automatically detects new available flights.
4. Click the red **“Transfer flights”** button.

A copy of your flights is automatically saved on your computer in the following formats:

* IGC (standard format for flight analysis and validation),
* GPX,
* KML,
* SDF (Syride native format).

You can access these files by clicking:\
**File → Local folder**

***

#### **Upload to your Syride flight logbook**

If the **“Use the flight logbook on syride.com”** option is enabled, flights will also be automatically uploaded to your online flight logbook.

If you are not logged in, the software will ask for your Syride email address and password.

If you do not yet have an account, you can create one for free at:\
<https://www.syride.com>

Your online flight logbook allows you to view, analyze, and securely store all your flights.

#### **Transfer to a phone (Bluetooth)**

1. Make sure you have installed the **Syride Link** mobile application.
2. Connect your instrument via Bluetooth.
3. Tap the Bluetooth icon at the bottom of the app screen.
4. Click the red **“Transfer flights”** button.

A copy of your flights is saved on your phone in **IGC, GPX, KML, and SDF** formats.

Files can be accessed from the flight list in the application and downloaded using the **“Share”** button.

***

#### **Automatic transfer**

⚠️ **Important note:** Automatic transfer can be enabled in the **Syride Link** application settings.

In this case, after landing and once flight recording has stopped, the application automatically retrieves the data and uploads it to your Syride account, provided an Internet connection is available.

***

#### **Re-transfer and duplicate management**

⚠️ **Important note:** It is possible to display the list of flights stored in the instrument and manually restart their transfer in case of failure.

If a flight is already present on your Syride account, it will be automatically detected as a duplicate and marked as invalid in your flight logbook.
