Transferring MapSource Data

If you have purchased a Garmin MapSource Data

program, transfer detailed map data before beginning

use. The Rino accepts map data from most MapSource

products. For a list of compatible MapSource maps

access the Garmin Web site at:

www.garmin.com

.

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 City Navigator

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

the display changes to contour lines. The same is true

when moving from a topo map to a City Navigator map.

The maps at the top of the hierarchy replaces any other

map information unless you select them from the prompt

that appears when you move to an area of map overlap.

For the list of the of Rino compatible maps access the

Garmin Web site at:

www.garmin.com/cartography/#

.

Map data transfer requires the use of a computer, a

Garmin MapSource Data Disk, and the computer

interface cable with USB port connector supplied with

this unit. Follow instructions provided with MapSource.

To set up for data transfer:

1. Before attaching the data cable to your computer,

install the Trip and Waypoints Manager CD-ROM

provided with your unit. It also installs USB drivers

specifically needed to communicate with your Rino.

2. Remove the Data Port cover on the back of the unit

by lifting up on the protective cover on the back of

the unit.

3. Connect the Mini-USB connector on the cable to

the computer USB port.

4. Connect the remaining Mini USB connector to the

back of the Rino by orienting the connector with the

slot on the back of the unit.

5. Turn on the Rino and follow instructions for map

data transfer provided with MapSource.Radio
