GPSBabel supports .wpr and .trl files for Alan Map500 devices running operating 
system versions 2.xx.
</p><p>
.trl contain files tracklogs. If you use a CF-Card based
operating system, tracklog files must have a <code class="filename">.TRL</code> extension when
copied to the CF-Card. The default filename is <code class="filename">TEMP_TRK.TRL</code>.
Only one <code class="filename">.TRL</code> file may be present.
</p><p>
Alan's operating system 3.0 for Map500 is not supported yet.
At the time of this writing, OS3 is still beta.
Documentation on the new dataformats is sparse.
</p><p>
The Alan Map500 handheld GPSr is identical to the Holux GM101.
This GPSBabel module has only been tested against the Alan Map500.
Still, if you use a GM101, GPSBabel will probably be able to convert
your waypoints, routes and tracklogs.
