Do you know if it will autoroute on trails, or do yo have to trace the trails? I think Delorme does, so I would assume NG does?
-
My bad, I did find on their website that it is compatible
-
I was on the NG website and it does not list the GPSMAP 60CS as being compatible with their software but I have heard from this forum that many 60CS users are using it. Will I be able to upload route and waypoint information? And secondly does it autoroute on trails?

I am running 3.70 that I just uploaded the other day. Battery contacts look good, but unfortunatley I cannot reproduce it. I am afraid that if I send it in, they wont be able to reproduce it either and it will be a waste of time. Has anybody expierienced this with 3.70?
-
Thats what I thought. From what I know most weather sites are reporting BP at sea level. I did not realize that my unit auto calibrates itself.
-
While playing with the settings on my compass, my 60CS randomly shut off, not a power down, but the screen faded away and then shut off. Has this ever happened to any of you 60CS owners. The battery meter is showing that they are full, and i am using Energizer E2 batteries. Any ideas?

When I try to calibrate the altimeter on my 60CS it asks if I know my current barometric pressure at my location, but i am thinking that they mean sea level? When I try to put in the correct pressure for my area (reno) it will not even let me go that low. This makes me think that they mean sea level pressure. Any ideas?

I want to get some new topo software but dont know where to start. Topo USA covers the entire western United States and is only $50, where as National Geogrpahich is $99 for California only? What more do I get with NG than with Topo USA? Is it worth the extra money? Any input would be great, thanks!!

I emailed Garmin and was able to get my hands on a schematic of the new case for the Garmin 60CS if anybody is interested. I know it is Neopreme and has a window on it. Here is the link: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/mtedelen@sbc...lbum?.dir=/a59f let me know if that does not work. One picture is the schematic and the other is a corresponding list of materials.

Thanks everybody, I just copied the CD to a folder in my garmin file, and then ran the setup. It works perfectly, thanks for all the good advice.
-
Im sorry, its Mapsource software.

NG Topo Website?
-
Anybody know of any way to install an entire Mapsource US TOPO CD? I dont care if it takes up alot of hard drive space, I just hate having to put the CD in everytime I want to use it?
-
Anybody know of screen protectors that work well and dont bubble?
-
I havent gotten that far with it yet, just kind of playing around with it. i havent researched it yet, but i wanted to find out what datum it is in.

I am using a laptop with a 128mb video card. I noticed that while on the site some close ups came in crystal clear while others did not. My house for example came in close enough for me to make out my truck and lawn in the back yard. I also noticed that it took a long time to come in. I did notice that if I zoomed out and then back in after waiting a little bit it came in a little more clear (on occasion). i thought it was kind of cool that it gave lat. and long. as well as elevation- might be useful for geocaching!

For any of those interested in amazing arial photos with 3-D images checkout keyhole.com. You can download there free trial software that lets you see zoomed in ariel photos of anywhere in the world. I could actualy see my truck parked in my driveway, and the lakes I plan on backpacking too this summer in Desolation Wildnerness!! Hope I posted this in the right forum.

North America City Select Unlock Questions
mtedelen replied to mtedelen's topic in GPS technology and devices
Thanks everbody for all of the great info! -
I am interested in purchasing NA City Select and just finished talking to Garmin. They said that because you have to unlock it it will only work with a specific unit. What happens when I want to upgrade my GPS unit later? Will I have to purchase new software, or will I still be able to use it?

Deleting Maps From Memory Gpsmap 60cs
mtedelen replied to mtedelen's topic in GPS technology and devices
I guess I dont really need to delete them, just thought that if could I would.I tried the mster reset, but there still there. They are some old metroguide maps from a friend and are outdated by about 4 years other than that, no reason. -

Deleting Maps From Memory Gpsmap 60cs
mtedelen replied to mtedelen's topic in GPS technology and devices
Is there any kind of master reset - I have no problem loosing saved information. I have it all backed up on trip and waypoint manager. Trying to find the most simple solution. -
Does anybody know how to delete maps from the internal memory on a GPSMAP 60CS? I know how to just not display them, but I want to completely get rid of them. Thanks, Matt
