MAP DOWNLOADING
This unit has a background map of the world permanently installed inside.
You can send an enhanced map from the enclosed CD-ROM to the unit
using a personal computer.
Currently, the MapSelect CD has the following databases:
IMS SmartMap™ data covers the 48 contiguous states and are broken
down into 64 different mapping regions. Contained in this database are
the names and locations of over 140,000 cities; 30,000 national, state
and county parks; 120,000 inland bodies of water plus coastal waters out
to 25 miles; as well as nearly all state and federal highways, interstates
and routes.
IMS WorldMap™ data covers 35 specific regions around the globe in-
cluding Canada, Europe, Indonesia and Australia. Contained in this data-
base are the names and locations of cities, towns, provinces and states,
plus major roadways including two- and four-lane highways, inland water-
ways and coastal hydrography.
Coastal nav aid data covers coastal regions of the 49 U.S. States (exclud-
ing Hawaii), the District of Columbia, the Great Lakes and many large
coastal rivers and other large inland lakes. Contained are approximately
60,000 marine navigation aids. Each navigation aid is displayed as a small
symbol, with information useful to the navigator (including light type (flash-
ing or continuous), light color, and other aid markings) below the symbol.
To use one of these, install the software from the CD-ROM onto your PC
compatible computer according to the instructions supplied with the CD.
Next, plug the AC adapter into a wall socket, and attach its cable to the
unit. Connect the cable supplied with this unit from a serial port on the
computer to the GPS receiver. Now turn the unit on and adjust the com-
munication port baud rate to its highest level (Press MENU/SYSTEM
SETUP/COM PORT SETUP). Set the parity to “none” and data bits to “8”.
Start the GDM 16 program on the computer. Click on the “GPS” label,
then click on “Options”. Select the com port that the GPS cable is con-
nected to and click “OK”. Now click on the “GPS” label, then “Initialize”.
This starts the communication between the GPS unit and the computer. If
the communications fail, try switching the baud rate on the GPS unit to a
lower setting. Once the communications are established, click on the “Map
Select” tab. Choose a memory partition to download a map into, then
choose a map. If you have problems, click on “Help”. There is extensive
help available on the GDM-16 program.
