60CSx overwrites and removes existing maps when another map is added

Former Member over 11 years ago

I have a 60CSx and had city navigator and topo loaded using mapsource. After movign I lost my old computer so got a new one and aLoaded BaseCamp. I retrieved my waypoints but wanted to load additional maps. Specifically North Dakotas PLOTS guide.

I downloaded the self executable plots installer and ran it (you can also download img files but these dont appear to be supported by teh 60CSx).
Once run teh the maps showed up but all my other maps exluding the base map are gone.
So I pop my topo cd in and install the topo maps i need for my upcoming trip.
Bam, the Plots guide is gone but the topo is there.
How do i get multiple map products installed?

For both maps to be on the device at the same time they have to both be installed using Mapinstall or Mapsource. Each time a map is transferred to the 60CSX it removes the maps that were there previously installed. This is why you are seeing this behavior when downloading the maps. How are you loading the Plots Guide to your 60CSX? One work around would be to load each map to separate micro SD cards. Then you can switch between the cards as needed.
