How do I 'update' my Magellan to current abilities

When the Magellan 2200T was purchased for me (as a gift) I was told that it could be 'updated'. We don't use the unit often, however I would like to know how it could be updated. I have the cables, etc. that go with the unit.

Do you want to update the firmware or the maps..the firmware is free but the map update is about 80.00 ..thats double of what the 2200t are selling for...

never the less, you can get either updates HERE just follow the instructions to the letter or you may render your 2200t inoperable if you fail to allow the update to complete or possible by trying to update it with a half charged battery...make sure its either plugged in to power or the battery is fully charged..

P.S. the update is for the north american version, if you need one for another country, id be happy to get you the direct link to there download page. you will also have to register on the magellan site before they will let you download any updated.

good luck, let me know if you need more help.

Two things; (1) Where can I get map updates? (2) I'd like to run a program called XC Soar, a flight computer program on my 2200T but it doesn't seem to be compatable. Any suggestions?

You'll more than likely have to purchase an update software for your GPS system or even try using the disk that came with your unit if applicable. If not you could always connect your unit to a computer to see if updates will install or refer the manual which came with your unit. Last resort try calling the company to see if you can get any info.
