+WolfSpring Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Okay I am new to a lot, but I use GPS a lot in the army and have never worked with mapsets, they have always been pre programed on my unit. I have a Garmin Etrex Legend Cx 1G MicroSD, Map source, City navigator, and Topo, plus a few more. I was playing around with topo and lost all my maps from navigator. Am I to understand you can only have one mapset at a time? So If I use map install and choose all the maps I want at the same time, it will build the mapset then install and over write the old mapset? Quote Link to comment
+SAPD Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Anytime you install a new mapset it overwrites the older mapset. You can have City Navigator and Topo loaded in the same mapset, you just identify what maps you want when you build the mapset. Quote Link to comment

Garmin does overwrite each mapset with a new one each time you load maps, but I think you can rename gmapsupp.img to gmapprom.img and then load the new mapset. Quote Link to comment
