using the PC/USB connector cable.

Information about USB Drivers
The USB drivers are automatically installed when
you install the MapSource Trip and Waypoint
Manager software that came with your Vista Cx.
When you initially connect the Vista Cx to a USB
port, your computer might prompt you to locate the
destination of the drivers for the device. You only
need to install the drivers once. After the drivers are
installed, your computer always detects your Vista Cx
when it is connected. USB drivers might be updated
periodically. You can find updates at
