Preparing and storing MapSend map regions on the PC
All MapSend CD-ROM products include a Quick Start Guide that 
explains the basics of defining map regions on the PC. Except for 
saving and moving maps over to your eXplorist, MapSend PC 
applications work the same way for eXplorist as for any other 
compatible Magellan GPS receivers. Only the basics of storing a 
map region for eXplorist are covered in this section.
In MapSend on the PC, when you have a map region defined and 
ready to upload, click the map upload button on the MapSend 
toolbar.
You will see this dialog box:
Select "Store on Hard Drive", 
and then the "Next" button. 
Do not choose "Upload to 
GPS Unit" or "Upload to 
SD Card Programmer" for 
eXplorist.
Next you will see this dialog 
box:
Disregard the "Settings" and 
"Connect" options.
The first time you use any 
MapSend product, you need 
to type in the software serial 
number for your eXplorist in 
the Target GPS Unit serial 
number field.
