JaVaWa GMTK 2.4 fails to Change name on Garmin 62st
I've successfully changed the Map Name in Basecamp but when I transfer the map to my Garmin 62st, the map shows as OSM World Routable. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I have changed all the required fields in JaVaWa GMTK found in Extra's. Any help would be great. Thanks

Re: JaVaWa GMTK 2.4 fails to Change name on Garmin 62st
It's already been solved by e-mail.
For those who want to know: the GPSMAP 62 shows the map set name in the menu when
1. the file name is gmapsupp.img or gmapprom.img, or
2. the file has the "visible to BaseCamp"-bit set.
Otherwise it shows the file name (without extension).
This applies to the 78, Montana & new eTrex too.
Since the map set name is created when you send the maps to the device with MapInstall or MapSource, you cannot change that with JaVaWa GMTK (btw, you can change the map set name in MapSource yourself, but not in MapInstall).
You can change the map set name afterwards with JaVaWa Device Manager.
