Transferring MapSource DataIf you have purchased a Garmin MapSource Dataprogram you may want to transfer detailed map databefore beginning use. The Rino 520/530 accepts up to56 MB of map data from most MapSource products. Itis not possible to transfer thirrd party maps into Garminproducts.You cannot view multiple types of MapSource data in thesame location at the same time (one replaces the other ifthere is an overlap). When you leave a CitySelect areafor example, and enter the area of a topographic map,the display changes to contour lines. The same is truewhen moving from a topo map to a CitySelect map. TheBlueChart maps are at the top of the hierarchy and willreplace any other map information. Here is the list of thehierarchy of Rino compatible maps for your reference:1. BlueChart 2. City Select3. MetroGuide 4. Fishing Hot Spots5. Points of Interest 6. U.S. Waterways & Lights7. U.S. Topo 8. Roads and Recreation9.
