City Nav and Topo on a 60CSx?

[+JetMonkey]

I'm curious, can both City Navigator NT 2008 maps and Topo 2008 maps be loaded onto the micro SD card and viewed on a Garmin 60 CSx? No doubt each can be loaded onto the card separately and used but can they both be on the card at the same time and then switched back and forth to view on the GPS?

 

Thanks for the help,

Yes they can be loaded on the SD card at the same time, but you have to select from within the unit which maps you want to use.

Having to switch the cards is a pain somewhere.

Just install both maps on the same card at the same time. Switching between them is done in a few seconds.

Thanks for the replies, it sounds like they can both be loaded on the same SD card, can the maps then be switch back and forth on the 60CSx then once they are both on the card?

 

Thanks for the help!

I answered that in Post #2

The maps have to be loaded at the same time. On your computer, choose the Map Tiles you want from City Navigator, then, switch to the Topo maps. Now, choose the map tiles you want from Topo. Then, send all the maps to the GPSr at the same time. Everytime you send new maps to the GPS unit, it erases the previous maps.

 

On the GPS, when you are on the Map Screen, hit the Menu button. Choose the option on that screen that shows the name of the mapset. Hit the Menu button again. That gives you the option to Show or Hide maps.

Sorry Strumble, somehow I missed your post even though it was the first one! Monday I guess!

Yes, I have Cn 2008 and Topo 2008 loaded onto the same card in my 60CSx.

 

Switching cards would be the PITA.
