Selecting the Background or Detail Map
The eXplorist comes with a basemap already installed but you may use MapSend Worldwide
software (purchased separately) to define your own basemap. You can use Active Setup to
select the background map you want to use if you have stored a new one.
Also, you can use one of the other MapSend software packages to define and save detailed
maps to your eXplorist. These detailed maps can provide more detailed street information,
additional POIs, and if using on of the MapSend topographic software packages, topo details.
You can use Active Setup to select the detail map you want to use if you have one saved.
