FOR ATV – Plug the Micro-sd card into your GPS. On waterproof GPS models the slot is located under the battery.<\/p>\n
To enable routing by ATV \u00a0trails, turn off any routing (highway or snowmobile) maps<\/em><\/strong> such as Garmin City Navigator or routing highway maps that are built-in to your GPS. Turn on ATV trail maps from Backwoods GPS Trails<\/em><\/strong>. The topo map may also be turned on to provide background. It shows highways, but does not route on them. TOOLS->SETTINGS->MAP->MAP INFO<\/strong> – check uncheck boxes. <\/em>The navigation settings should be set to navigate ON ROAD<\/strong>, even when routing by trail.<\/p>\n Use the Where To?<\/strong> button to set a destination and begin routing. Select EXTRAS- CUSTOM POIs<\/strong> and select from on-trail ATV services. There are several other means to select a destination including browsing the map and pointing at a location.<\/p>\n If you are too far away from an actual ATV trail, routing will occur as the crow flies (a straight line) to the nearest trail. From there routing will be along trails.<\/p>\n Turn off the trail maps and the routing highway maps back on when you are ready to navigate by automobile. Addresses are not on ATV maps, but are on most highway maps.<\/p>\n The micro-sd card already has the latest version of the trails<\/em> and a topographical map. There is no need to download anything from your computer. When a map update is released we announce it on the website. They you can download the map update to your computer, and from your computer to your GPS. The same micro-sd card can be reused.<\/p>\n You must also install either Garmin BaseCamp or MapSource to view the maps on your computer. You can use the maps on your computer to create your own custom routes and download them to your computer. There are instructions on our web site on how to do this. You can run the ATV_Tr_XX.exe program on the micro-sd card to install trail maps to a Windows PC. Since maps and POIs are already on the micro-sd card, skip the part of installation where it asks you to put them on your GPS.<\/p>\n You can view the combined trail map and topo that is on your GPS using Garmin BaseCamp. Connect your GPS to your computer using a USB cable. Run BaseCamp and use the Device->Receive from Device<\/strong> menu.\u00a0 You can click on the trail map that shows up as being on your GPS. This also works when running BaseCamp on a Macintosh computer.<\/p>\n There is an ATV vehicle icon (bash.srf)\u00a0 in the Garmin\/Vehicle<\/em><\/strong> folder on the micro-sd card. Copy that file to the \/Garmin\/Vehicle<\/em><\/strong> folder on your GPS main storage drive and it will be available for use when you setup your GPS driving more.<\/p>\n
