Using the Mapping Databases
Many of the eTrex features require detailed mapping
data to be fully operational, so you need to transfer
maps before using the unit. The eTrex Vista HCx
and Legend HCx are equipped with a slot for a
microSD™ card (user provided) that can be loaded
with detailed maps from optional MapSource disks.
With selected MapSource mapping data, you can
view listings of nearby restaurants, lodging, shopping
centers, attractions and entertainment, and addresses.
The amount of data transferable is 24 MB for the
eTrex Summit HC and Venture HC, for the eTrex
Vista HCx and Legend HCx it is determined by the
size of the microSD card.
Use the USB Interface Cable, provided with the unit,
to transfer MapSource data from a computer to the
microSD card when installed in the eTrex. Purchase
additional microSD cards at your local electronics
supplier, or see the Garmin Web site:
www.garmin.com for compatible MapSource products
and pre-loaded microSD cards.
