I have a question about setting maps in a garmin etrex legend.
I have mapsource v6 i think it is and i whant to send maps of my area
to the gps on doing so will i erase all other maps in the gps or will
it just update the portions of the maps i am installing? what about
getting my legend back to factory specs? i have heard i can get it
back to fact specs but looking at the website i dont find no files for
that?
Do not confuse the base map with uploaded maps.
The base map is the rough world map which is built into your Legend in the
factory. This is hard wired. You cannot delete or overwrite it...
This is true but the legend is also shipped with the marine
points-of-information "map", showing navigation aids etc.
This is loaded in the same way as a mapsource dataset and is permanently
deleted if you upload any other map to the handset.
Whilst you are unlikely to need the POI database, if for some reason you
really do require it or just want to resore your Legend absolutely to
factory condition then you can download an installation program from the
Garmin website.
