Third-Party GPS Devices
You can create a custom symbol set that includes all of the waypoint symbols on your third-
party GPS device. By creating this custom symbol set, the waypoints you create display the
same in both the mapping application and on your third-party GPS device, no matter where
they originated.
Third-party GPS waypoint symbols are identified by their waypoint ID number, which is
assigned by the device's manufacturer. To successfully view third-party GPS waypoint
symbols in the mapping application, you must assign the proper waypoint identification
number to each symbol you add to the custom symbol set.
Important To create a custom symbol set of your third-party GPS device's waypoint
symbols, you must contact the device's manufacturer to obtain the graphic files and the
waypoint ID number associated with each symbol.

Notes
•
Waypoint ID numbers vary by manufacturer and model.
•
If you import multiple waypoints from a third-party GPS device without assigning a
waypoint ID to each first, all of the waypoints display in the mapping application with a
single default symbol.
•
If you do not know the identification number for a third-party GPS device's waypoint,
import the waypoint file into the mapping application. Then, use one of the two
methods below to learn the waypoint ID:
o
Open the symbol set that holds the waypoint and view the waypoint's ID number in
XSym.
o
Click the Info tool on the toolbar and click the symbol on the map.
The waypoint ID displays in the Info tab.
