Hi , I am a hard working newcomer with gps 60csx and it pays off.
I was able to transfer tiles into mapsource and it worked fine, then I asked for another set of tiles from OSM, which I transferred as well to mapsource but now mapsource fails and will not work any longer.
Above âKarten Detailsâ in the mapsource screen I get something like ânicht freigestelltâ
I have now deinstalled several times mapsource according a detailed instruction from a surprisingly fast answer from garmin customer service but if I install only the first OSM maps it works if intall the second too it fails.
I am at the stage where I am lost.
The link I got to download the second set is as follows. http://planetosm.oxilion.nl/~lambertus/garmin/routable/09-07-2009/afbbcd7dfda16b63363c77d9420f2cbb
Just a suggestion to save re-installing MapSource.
Keep a âlast good workingâ copy of your .IMG and .TDB files in another folder.
(My basemap images are called 63240000.img and 63240000.tdb. The basemap .imgs are fairly small around 100k. The map .imgs you downloaded will be a megabyte or larger.)
That way youâll be able to overwrite the new non-working files with good old ones. When you installed your first OSM map, the installer created registry entries for it. Any subsequent OSM maps should either add registry entries or overwrite the existing ones. If MapSource doesnât find what it expects it will choke.
Finally, do you have any idea what ânicht freigestelltâ translates to in English? My gymnasiumdeutch isnât up to a MapSource translation.
Considering that OSM maps are not locked, is it possible that you have some locked maps, Garmin products like City Nav NT in the US that are having problems? Perhaps share the same *.img name?
The OSM maps you downloaded certainly do not need unlocking, but perhaps youâve encountered a problem where the maps from my service interfere with a commercial map. But I never heard about such a situation before.
How do you keep the OSM .img numbers separate from the Garmin Locked numbers, or, for that matter, from the .img numbers of other third party mapmakers?
I do not find a list of occupied numbers,
I am not a master of the Regedit as I always tried not to touch it yet, and I did not find any .TBD files in my system
Ok, so you currently have only one map installed: the osm world routable. You should definately not get a question about unlocking maps.
But if you still do then: Please run the setup of that map again and donât change any setup option. Just let it install in the default directory. Do you still have the unlocking error when the installer has finished?
http://www.keenpeople.com/ maintains a list referenced on the cgpsmapper site, and Garmin might be induced to share their rules. Everything in my City Nav North America NT folder starts with 0024???.
solution was: I requsted all the tiles I had done before in two lots in one now, had deinstalled the images from the previous attempts and executed the combined request and it worked fine.
This solved my current problem but I wonder what will happen if I need another tile and try to add it?.
Ah yes, you cannot install two different maps from my service on the same pc at the moment. The overview map is overwritten so youâll only see the last installed map, but it shouldnât complain about unlocking or other stuff otherwise.
If you want to use this service to update an already installed map then youâll have to request all the tiles you had installed before as well. There is a solution for this but then youâll have to get to work with mkgmap or other Garmin tools yourself. I plan to make multiple maps installed in parallel possible in the future.
