Bit of help here please re my Nav 5.

I'm trying to work on basecamp to do a route. When I connect my NAV 5 the map loads up in detail EVENTUALLY after ages.
Everytime I scroll it takes like 30 seconds to detail in again and I haver real fast PC and fast GFX card.

Is there any way to transfer my latest map from the device to the PC (basecamp) so it renders quicker and I can use without my NAV 5 plugged in. Its so slow and painstaking I am giving up. If I use basecamp without the device connected the detail is very poor, like a free basic version or europe etc..

THANKS

You need to install the maps from your device onto the PC, then you can run without the Nav 5 connected, and the maps will tie up with your routes. This can be done automatically when installing Basecamp, (as I did), or separately. See this vid
