Using the eXplorist with MapSend
75
You can transfer POIs, routes and track logs to and from MapSend and the eXplorist using the Magellan
Conversion Manager. Since the eXplorist stores these data items in a more accessible manner than previous
GPS receivers, you must use the Magellan Conversion Manager instead of transferring the files directly in
MapSend. (The Magellan Conversion Manager can be installed using the Magellan Wizard CD-ROM that came
with your eXplorist.)
1. Access the Magellan Conversion Manager by using the Start button on the Windows toolbar.
2. Under “Programs” select ‘Magellan > eXplorist 210 > Magellan Conversion Manager’.
3. Click the radio button for ‘Convert Waypoints / Routes / Tracks’ and click Next >.
4. Turn off the eXplorist and connect the USB cable to the eXplorist and the personal computer’s USB
port.
5. Turn the eXplorist on.
6. Click the Next > button on the Magellan Conversion Manager.
7. Select ‘Convert to MapSend’ (sending data points from the eXplorist to MapSend). Click Next >.
8. Click on the active folder icon. In the example shown, files are being transferred from the eXplorist to
MapSend.
9. Browse through the folders and select the POI, route or track log files to be transferred.
10. Click Next >.
11. A progress bar is displayed and will indicate when the transfer has completed.
12. Click Next > and finally click Finish to conclude the transfer.
13. Open the MapSend software program and under the Waypoints or Track menu, select ‘Load from
File...”. Select the file that you converted.
