Getting started with your Satmap GPS - One year access for a one-off fee

We were getting an increasing number of requests from our clients for a dedicated Active 10,12 & 20 online resource especially from those attending our hands-on courses who wanted something like the other resources we offer to re-inforce learning after a course; as usual these things take time to put together but its now ready and available, its taken a while but here it is.

The common complaint by SatMap users is about the very detailed manuals that are provided with the GPS is that they are a bit techy and although very detailed don't show the user how to navigate with the unit.

Our resource keeps things simple, explains in laymans language how to use the buttons and soft keys and what features are on offer and how to navigate with them, in the final lessons we show you how to import/export routes etc to and from your GPS using SatSYNC.

The resource is packed with all the information you will need to learn how to get the best from your Active 10 /12 or 20 GPS unit it contains 10 lessons with 48 webpages and step by step guides and 'How to' video demos. The resource is a great reference guide when you just can't remember how to use one of the many features on offer in this novel unit. 

We have also added a new Section with Video Tutorials covering the new Xpedition2 Planning Software for both Windows & Mac users.
