detailed mapping data. Data can be transferred to a map data

transfer map data you will need to install MapSource on your
PC and connect the eMap PC Interface Cable to your PC and the
eMap unit.
Instructions for using MapSource are provided with the
CD-ROM. Instructions for transferring map data are
contained in the Reference section of the same manual
under the title "Transferring Data".
To make the Interface Cable connection:

the Interface Cable to the serial port on your PC.
