![]() And the good news is that such a masterpiece of technology– GPS in the form of small devices, watches, phones, apps and software has already made its way to millions of people. From doing precise aerial surveys to on road navigation, everything which demands accurate time, location, and positioning details is possible with the help of GPS. Among so many life-changing technologies, GPS is the one. "Image shows and tells a lot more than a thousand words." If it still is not showing as a removable drive when the screen of the unit says that this is what it is doing, then you probably have to conclude that the hardware is bad. Turn the 60CSx off and then hold down both the Enter button and the Page button while turning the unit on. If that gets you no further, then it is time to try the "master reset" of the 60CSx. Get some fully charged batteries of the type that the unit thinks it has (Alkaline, NiMH.) and now try the USB removable drive using the best USB cable you have (preferably one of the same type that you can verify with a camera, music player, etc. Let's try this: pull the SD card out, pull the batteries out. Take a close look at the connector does the cable connector slide on snugly and smoothly? If it seems loose, then that could be the problem if you have to force it hard, then that also could be the problem Rob21, just to be sure we understand: when you ran the first test I suggested (having the 60CSx appear on your computer as a removable hard drive in Windows Explorer) are you finding that it is not doing that?Īssuming that this is the case and that you have tested the cable and various USB ports on the computer, then it would appear that something is wrong at the GPSr. I'll all processed and I'll communicate the results. Thanks Hynr for all possible implicit solution of my problem. After two or three seconds it should show the GPSr as the connected device. The best way to check to see if Mapsource is able to see the GPSr is to try Transfer, Receive and watch the dialog that comes up. Uninstall it, make sure you have the most up-to-date version and reinstall it. ![]() If this is not present then something is wrong with the driver. Take the 60CSx out of USB mass storage mode (press the power button) and in Windows go to Control Panel, Device Manager - there should be a line for "Garmin Devices" and under that your 60CSx should be represented. If this test indicates that your hardware is OK, then try the following. I have also seen situations where a device was plugged into one of the USB ports that was causing the whole bus to not function right so you might want to run tests with all other USB devices removed and the comptuer restarted to see if that clears up the problem. On rare occasions something has gotten Windows confused so the USB ports stops functioning and restarting Windows might help. ![]() If that is working fine, and you can copy files back and forth, then the problem is elsewhere. If this does not work then there is a defect in either the USB port on the 60CSx, the port on the computer, the cable or one of the connectors on either end of the cable. Since the 60CSx can be connected with USB or serial, I assume you are using the USB cable and have it plugged into the correct port on the computer.īut do run this test: connect the 60csx and PC together put the 60CSx into removable drive mode (Setup, Interface, USB mass storage) - the GPSr will display an icon that suggests it is in that mode and your computer should respond by setting up a drive (you can see it with Windows Explorer). Mapsource can detect the 60CSx without having the GPSr in removable drive mode. You need to be in Mass Storage mode for MapSource to detect your memory card.
