Click Done to complete the registry process.
NOTE:
If the
AUTOMATICALLY APPEND LABEL TO SAVED MAPS box is selected (see
figure above), MapCreate will automatically add your card's label to
the end of whatever name you give the file you are saving. Let's use
the figure above as an example. If we name our map "Phoenix.lcm,"
MapCreate will automatically name the file "Phoenix_CARD1.lcm."
To cancel this option, click the Automatically Append… box to re-
move the check mark.
11. A window shows the progress of your map build. When the map is
built, MapCreate displays the
SAVE AS dialog box. Type a file name for
your Map File, and click
SAVE. (MapCreate will save your new custom
map to your memory card.)
12. After the program has saved the map to your card, the Save Prog-
ress box disappears. You can now close MapCreate and remove the card
from the reader.
13. Follow the instructions in your GPS manual for loading the MMC or
SD card into your unit. It will automatically read the map when the
unit is turned on.
NOTE:
Custom maps and GPS data (waypoints, routes, trails, icons) are
contained in two different file types. We describe their functions in
the following segments on how the program works.
