Using Additional Map Data
Optional MapSource CD-ROMs enhance the 
versatility of your GPSMAP 96/96C. With optional 
MapSource City Select data, you can view listings 
of nearby restaurants, lodging, shopping centers, 
attractions and entertainment, and even retrieve 
addresses and phone numbers for any listed location. 
With optional BlueChart data, you can access 
marine navaids, wrecks, obstructions, and anchorage 
locations. 
The included USB Interface Cable or an optional PC 
Interface Cable (with a serial connector) is used to 
transfer MapSource CD-ROM data to the unit.
To aid in learning to use the GPSMAP 96/96C, please 
use the Simulator Mode. Simulator Mode is also 
helpful for practicing with the unit indoors or when 
no satellite signals are available. All waypoints and 
routes created in Simulator Mode are retained in 
memory for future use. 
Simulator Mode
The main purpose of using a GPS receiver is for 
navigating to a known position. To get a feel for 
navigating with the GPSMAP 96/96C, it is a good 
idea to practice navigation in Simulator Mode.
