Thread: How to get two separate map files on SD working on some older nüvi GPS models

eTrex Vista HCx doesn't support g2 Vision charts, you must look for HXRU002R (g2)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
There is a limit of 2GB for a single map. I suggest to keep Bg map (gmapprom.img) in internal memory and the chart in sd in a Garmin folder named gmapsupp.img
Edit: 2gb limit is gone with sw 3.00

Caty! No problem with g2 Vision charts too. I do not have not-g2 Vision version for my region and so I use g2 Vision!

Device ignore 3d, aerial and auto guidance simply! Only one moment that g2 Vision is more expensive
This unit have the same small problem with both format with not-g2 Vision so as to g2 Vision in map control menu. It is not significant but the best way delete some sub-maps. We discussed that in one of old thread...

Ok, thanks, I don't remember, I simply looked at product page and Vision are not listed.
