GARMIN GPS72 Software Upgrade Information
Software Version 2.30

http://www.garmin.com

------------------------------------------------------------

WARNINGS:
    If this software is uploaded to a GPS unit other than the product for
    which it is designed, you will not be able to operate that unit.

    If the upload software fails, verify that you have good batteries installed
    and try again.  If repeated upload attempts fail, you may need to return
    the unit to GARMIN for service.

------------------------------------------------------------

Instructions for uploading the new software to your GPS72 using Microsoft
Windows 95/98/NT:

1.  Download the appropriate self-extracting archive file for your GPS72 onto
    your hard drive.

2.  Unzip the files in the archive by running the downloaded executable file.

3.  Connect your GPS72 to a free serial port (Com 1, 2, 3, or 4) on your PC
    with a PC interface cable.

4.  Turn on your GPS72 and ensure the Serial Data Format is set to "GARMIN".
    You can find this setting in the Main Menu under "Setup".

5.  Change to the directory in which you unzipped the files, (i.e., C:\GARMIN),
    and run the update program, updater.exe.  Select the appropriate serial
    port and click "OK" to begin the software upload.
    
    During the upload, the GPS72's display will indicate "Software Loading...."
    The upload process should take 3-10 minutes to complete. When the upload
    is completed, the GPS72 will reset itself and turn on normally.
