INFORMATION ABOUT USB DRIVERS

When connecting the GPSMAP 695/696 to a USB port, the computer prompts you to locate the destination of the drivers for the device (a USB drivers CD is included). Only install the drivers once. After the drivers are installed, your computer always detects your GPSMAP 695/696 when it is connected. USB driver updates can be found at www.garmin.com.

USING XIMAGE FOR CUSTOMIZED WAYPOINT SYMBOLS

xImage allows you to exchange images between your PC and your GPSMAP 695/696. You can download and save screen shots of any screen shown on your unit. xImage also allows you to download customized splash screens and waypoint symbols from compatible GPS units, customize them (if you have an image editing program on your PC), and send them back to your GPS unit.

You can download xImage from the Garmin Web site at www.garmin.com/ximage. Refer to the help file for complete instructions about using xImage.
