use maps only from a particular directory or from all directories on
the WayPoint that contain maps. The Selection choice on the
command bar will let you unselect all maps and controls the ability
to select multiple maps. You will usually want more than one map
displayed. You can tap as many maps as you wish and then tap ok.
If you have one or two regions loaded you may just want to display
all of the maps. Use the
Choose Map
command and then highlight
one or more maps. Tap the box beside “Also open all Contiguous
maps” and tap
ok
. This will cause WayPoint to select every map
that is adjacent to another map. This can select quite a few maps.
If major road maps are selected in this process it will try and load
every map in the entire United States that you have on your unit.
You can restrict this behavior by not using the check box or by
limiting the search to one directory using the pull down at the top of
the screen to select the directory you wish to use. There is a limit
as to how many maps can be opened at once because of limits in
the OS and performance issues. Generally do not load more than
two or three regions.
If you are not familiar with the county names you may wish to just
load the major highway maps and then select the areas
graphically. For more information see the Advanced Topics chapter
in the WayPoint Navigator’s Handbook.
