+Phone guy Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I just received my tracking number for my 60cs and I should be receiving it on the 26th. Does anyone have suggestions for the initial setup? I currently have the 76s but I plan on using the usb port on the 60cs. I also ordered City Select. Quote Link to comment

clintb Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Keep the USB connection, but use EasyMPS to send a GSAK generated .gpx file to Mapsource. Easy as pie and fast with USB. Quote Link to comment

Why do you need Easymps? I just use GSAK to export an MPS file to Mapsource, and transfer to my 60cs via the USB port. Works great. Not sure why you would want to add that extra step. I agree that it is much better to use the USB port instead of the serial port. It is much faster. Especially when transferring up to 56 megs of maps, you will want to use the USB.
