Transferring MapSource Map Data
If you have purchased a Garmin MapSource CD-ROM mapping
program you may want to transfer detailed map data before beginning
use, to provide your unit with maximum Find features and mapping
capability. The GPSmap 60C accepts up to 56 MB of map data from most
MapSource products. It is not possible to transfer 3rd party maps into
Garmin products.
You cannot view multiple types of MapSource data in the same loca-
tion at the same time (one will draw over the other). When you leave a
MetroGuide area for example and enter the area of a topographic map,
the display will change to contour lines. The same is true when moving
from a topo map to a MetroGuide map.
Maps that are at the top of the hierarchy and will replace any other
map information. Because new maps are constantly being released, con-
sult your Garmin Dealer or the Garmin website to determine the order of
hierarchy.
Map data transfer requires the use of a PC, a Garmin MapSource CD-
ROM, and the Universal Service Bus (USB) cable supplied with this unit.
Follow detailed instructions for data transfer in the MapSource User' s
Manual.
