[Explorist 210 Need help with base maps!]

Everytime I turn on my Explorist 210 I receive the following message:

"UNIT CURRENTLY CONTAINS NO MAP! INITIATING MAP UPLOAD"

 

At that point the system hangs. I have downloaded basemap 3.2.53 from this site and reinstalled, but continue to receive the same message.

 

After the initial download the system searchs for the signals and receives the signals, but no map. Then when the system is turned off and back on I receive the above message. Magellan support staff has been no help.

 

Thanks anyone for your help.

I was able to copy the basemap from my magellan explorist 500 to my magellan explorist 210 by copying and pasting the basemap folder.

[Windows Vista & Magellan Topo 3D USA problem]

i have a magellan explorist 210. I installed the program mapsend topo 3d using compatibility mode which by the way works flawlessly takes quite a while for all three disk's to load when you use a full install. After having the software installed I conected my gps to my pc in file transfer mode. then i selected the region of the map i wanted to send and named it selected it in the list and selected to upload to gps from the drop down menu under regions. For the explorist 210 you do not have to use the extra conversion software just select the sd card option. It wants the unit serial number it can be found in the units menu under about. then put it back in file transfer mode select the drive that pops up and click finished.
