Default more gps help

I had a Globemap 100 and gave it to Sean, and you're right, it does take a
card and a reader to use. I remember from the software that you had to
choose the pencil from the toolbar at the top and zoom into the area you
were interested in, then draw an area from one of the red? dots to another
until you had a map created, then send the info to a card. I don't recall
ever using the bare wires on the cable for anything, I think I taped them
off.

tried to send this to chris - it bounced - any help appreicated


Hi Chris


Jerry suggested i contact you - i got Mapcreate 6 and I
found a cable to hook my GlobeMap 100 to the computer but it has a
power
cord with it - I have no idea how to hook that up. The power cord
has
two wires attached to the computer end but just bare wire on the other
end.


Also, how do you download the info from the GPS? Does yours have a
card
in it? MIne is a hand held unit - have not hooked it up yet, don't
want
to mess up anything.


Thanks.

Don't know but not sure he could help. My old Globemap 100 is not
supported by MapCreate 6 or 5 - both of them require cards and card
readers. If I can ever download the waypoints to a ascii file I think
I can use them, tho. I have one GPS with 240 waypoints and another
with 748. Sure would like to get them all on one place. If I can I
can upload them to the GPS on my boat - it uses a card.
