The Magellan eXplorist 500 GPShas limited storage space for waypoints, routes, and tracks. Once you reach that limit, your GPS can’t hold any more data. Smart ExpertGPS users have figured out how to eke out every last bit of memory space on their Magellan GPS receivers.
Before each outdoor adventure or visit to a project site, they use ExpertGPS to back up the contents of their GPS, and then clear the GPS data memory. They can then download as much data as possible onto their GPS (leaving some room for GPS data collection out in the field). When they get back, they use ExpertGPS to upload all of their Magellan waypoints, routes, and tracks onto their computer and save it. Once they’ve backed up the new data from their GPS, they can clear the memory again, keeping their
Magellan eXplorist 500 GPS ready for their next trip.
