When a significant event in the operation of the 

unit occurs, an on-screen message appears to advise 

you of the occurrence. In each case, the condition is 

described and often a remedy is provided. Press Enter 

to acknowledge the message and close the window.

In some instances, the message may indicate a 

temporary condition such as the “Calculating 

Route” message and close as soon as calculation is 

completed.

Many of the eTrex features require detailed mapping 

data to be fully operational, so you may want to 

transfer maps before using the unit. A microSD

™

 card 

(interchangeable with TransFlash

™

 cards and provided 

only with the Legend Cx) can be loaded with detailed 

maps from optional MapSource

®

 disks for your PC. 

This can enhance the versatility of your eTrex. With 

selected MapSource detailed mapping 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. The amount of data that can be transferred 

is determined by the capacity printed on the microSD 

card.
Use a USB interface cable (provided with the Legend 

Cx) to transfer MapSource data from a PC to the 

microSD card when it is installed in the eTrex. You 

can purchase microSD cards at your local electronics 

supplier or refer to the accessory list in the Appendix.
