With that GPS Data File copied to the MMC, you're ready to load the
file into your GPS unit. Refer to your GPS unit's manual for instruc-

topic "
Transfer Custom Maps and GPS Data Files ." This is usually lo-

the MMC card, you can place the MMC in the card reader, copy
that
GPS Data File to C:\Program Files\LEI\MapCreate\Data and open the
file in MapCreate.
