I cracked the lense on my GPSmap 60CSx. Where can I get a replacement lense? Are there online directions on how to do the repair? Thanks

Hi,
use the webupdater and replace GPSChipsetTypeG file.

Kind Regards,

Silva.

The 60CS does not have a way to set the date and time manually- it finds both from the satellites as soon as it receives them.

The time zone can be set in:
- Main menu
- Marine setup
- Time Setup then TimeZone

Garmin or one of their authorized service centers are the only places to get spare parts. They will probably not sell it to you, requiring you to send it in for service. See Garmin.com for a list of service centers.

Go to Main Menu by pressing MENU button twice. Choose SYSTEM and press ENTER. You can change various settings on this page. Make sure that for GPS option 'Normal' is selected. If it is set to 'Battery Saver Mode' the GPS will switch off after certain time.

To find software version press menu then select setup press enter select system press enter then press menu select software version press enter version 3.90 gave me problems so i downgraded back to v 3.70

You have use the unlock wizard to install the key that is provided with the software. When I bought my Mapsource CitySelect, it came with two keys. The way Garmin does it is, you can install the software as many times as you want on as many machines as you want, but can transfer the maps, data, etc ONLY to unlocked devices. Last I checked Garmin wanted $75 for additional unlocks. Some data is not locked, like Topo maps and some tide points since this data is obtained (by Garmin) from the gov't, which is free for us (wel, minus taxes we pay). Contact Garmin support, they are very attentive.

Search for them "by name" instead of "by nearest"

Find>waypoints>find>menu>enter>by name

Only the nearest 50 caches show up and then only if they are within 50 miles.

Have you highlighted the section with the map select tool, then hit the Transfer to GPS button? If you do, what happens then? Does it freeze?

If you are able to send routes and waypoints to the unit, you should be able to send selected unlocked maps as well.

I had the problem where I ended up disassembling the Garmin and adding a small piece of plastic to the on/off button. For some reason the push button on the top does not reach the one on the circuit board.
