Mapsource map sets?

Post by MacWildcat »

I was wondering if there is a way to load more than one map set into my Garmin 60CX. I have Garmin Mapsource Road/Rec and Topo. I like to use the Road/Rec for road use and the Topo for trails. Is it possible to have two different map sets loaded at once. Next question, how would I toggle between the two map sets?

Yes you can load 2 different map sets. You just have to select them as you go and make sure they are loaded up on the left side in the maps tab. If you want to change between maps, go to the maps page on the GPS. Hit menu, scroll down to map setup. Select this and you will have a bunch of Icons along the top. Scroll over to the ( ! ) Icon. select. Then you can check mark what maps to be shown. Cant do 2 different maps at once. Say a city select and a TOPO.
