After transferring files to device you have to manually rename new img file to \Garmin\gmapsupp.img.Īt the bottom of the page there is sample data for Sicily. It works similar to Mapsource but creates file with name, that is not recognized by fenix. When using BaseCamp loading maps is supported by external program MapInstall. Mapsource creates file \Garmin\gmapsupp.img on device. Easiest way to load maps is to use Mapsource, it allows for selecting tiles and transfer to fenix attached to USB. Maps are divided into tiles up to 3.5MB size, you can load several selected tiles from PC to device. You can install update for Mapsource after installing BaseCamp: BaseCamp for Windows and Mac OS is available here: Garmin has provided free programs for managing maps on PC - BaseCamp and Mapsource. Compilation is optimized for size and speed. Maps contain a limited set of features - forests, roads, villages. I have created maps basing on schema developed by GPS Maniak. Small, black and white screen doesn't allow for many details. The presentation of the map is very limited. From fenix 5 series, only fenix 5X supports maps. Watch fenix 3 is a different device and doesn't support maps. The same is true for similar models, like Garmin tactix, quatix i fenix 2. There is possibility to install additional maps with Mapsource or MapInstall. In published specification Garmin declared no support for maps, but watch has basic map and about 20MB free storage. Garmin fenix is an outdoor watch equipped with a GPS receiver.
