Transferring MapSource 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

Rino 130 accepts up to 24 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 location at the same time (one replaces the other if

there is an overlap). When you leave a MetroGuide area

for example and enter the area of a topographic map, the

display changes to contour lines. The same is true when

moving from a topo map to a MetroGuide map. The

BlueChart maps are at the top of the hierarchy and will

replace any other map information. Here is the list of the

hierarchy for your reference:

1. BlueChart
2. MetroGuide
3. Fishing Hot Spots

4. Points of Interest
5. U.S. Waterways & Lights
6. U.S. Topo
7. Roads and Recreation
8. WorldMap

Map data transfer requires the use of a PC, a Garmin

MapSource CD-ROM, and the PC Interface Cable with

RS-232 serial port connector supplied with this unit.

Follow detailed instructions for data transfer in the

MapSource User’s Manual.
