How to Install a Map on Your Garmin GPS ?
To install the OSM or Topographic map on your GPS, follow these steps :
- Download the map, it is in the form of a "gmapsupp.img" file.
- Connect your GPS with a computer via a USB cable.
- Copy the "gmapsupp.img" file into the "garmin" folder located at the root of the device's memory. If the memory of the device is not enough, create at the root of an SD memory a folder named "garmin" which will contain "the gmapsupp.img" file.
PS : The "garmin" folder exists by default in the root of the internal memory, otherwise create it in a memory card formatted in FAT32.
