Using the eXplorist with MapSend 67
Notice that in the lower right corner the size of the region is displayed. You may choose to put large regions on
an SD card to save internal memory.
Saving Map Regions. Before saving the
region, review the documentation that came
with MapSend to set what information will
be saved with the region. In this example,
Topo information and POIs are wanted, so in
the region list make sure that the "T" and
"P" boxes to the left of the region name are
bolded. Next, mark the region for saving by
clicking the checkbox to the left of the region name.
Save the Region to Your Computer's Hard Drive. Under the Regions
menu, select "Upload to GPS..." (Ctrl+U). Click on the radio button
for "Save on Hard Drive."
IMPORTANT: Do NOT save directly to an SD card or directly to the
GPS unit. Map files saved from MapSend need to be converted before
using them in the eXplorist. Maps saved directly to an SD card from
MapSend will not work in the eXplorist.
Click the Next > button.
Enter the serial number for your eXplorist in the space provided. This
can be found on your eXplorist by accessing the About... screen

Connect buttons. Once the serial number has been entered, click Next >. You will be asked to confirm the
serial number.
The Ready to Update window is displayed with information about the region that you are saving. Click on the
