Use SD card reader/writer to copy file to SD card on a computer.

A couple things.

What GPS you are talking about using this with ?

If you (instead of Jetmouse) use the "FastIMGUnlocker" on the gmapsupp.img it will make that IMG unlockable which means
"useable anywhere without keys". The Jetmouse map unlock key will not work unless you have used the S/N of the SD as the UnitID.
The SW unlock code is not for maps and is not necessary. It is for unlocking Smartphone GPS software. If an unlock key is used you must have the key in a file named gmpasupp.unl located in the same directory on SD as the maps (gmapsupp.img).

You just copy the gmapsupp.img to a Garmin folder on SD and plug it into your GPS. How you see or use that map depends on your GPS model instructions. It's different on the various marine models but if you have put an UNLOCKABLE IMG on the SD (or micro-sd) it will work exactly as if you purchaed it from Garmin.
x:\garmin\gmapsupp.img <-- here's where the map goes.
x:\garmin\gmapsupp.unl <-- the unlock file you don't use an UNLOCKABLE gmapsupp.img.

The .unl is nothing more than a renamed .txt file you can make with notepad. The 25 char unlock key must be the first 25 characters on the first lin of that file.

There's no easy way to get these vision charts to work with mapsource. The standard method of viewing these is to download and install Garmins "Homeport" and it will read that particular gmapsupp.img right from the SD card so you can view it on a PC (you obviously need a card reader on you PC). They look very good on tha PC.

If your trying to use this chart with a GPS that does not support these maps you may have very limited functionality.

Hello Tiger and Kamoteka..thanks for your quick reply. I should have tell you in detail. My bros who have Garmin 440s and 520s, Marine GPS, capable of plotting chart, 3d, fishfinder...etc. They asked me to update the map for them. I have no clue with marine gps's since I only use portable one...like the unlocked Navigon 2100.
If I understand you correctly, Jetmouse key gen generate key and I create unlocked file .unl using notepad, right?. I got two files, each for diff. unit ID, put each file in appropriate folder per your instruction. My question is, the locked .img file posted above, how does jetmouse key gen unlock the image file? or it doesn't really matter. I only care about the .unl files, correct? like you said "x:\garmin\gmapsupp.unl <-- the unlock file you don't use an UNLOCKABLE gmapsupp.img."
ps. I will also try to use the fastimgunlocker since it makes more sense when I have two diff. unit. I will post the update to see if both units work. Thanks very much for your help. BTW, both paid like 149.00 per SD card....

That is correct BUT!!! it's very difficult to get the S/N correctly from the SD and without that your unlocks will fail. You are so much better off to simply use the fast image unlocker tool and forget about keys and unlock files, especially if you want multiple copies for different units.

I got two files, each for diff. unit ID, put each file in appropriate folder per your instruction. My question is, the locked .img file posted above, how does jetmouse key gen unlock the image file? or it doesn't really matter. I only care about the .unl files, correct?
Correct! Neither the keygen nor .unl physically changes or unlocks the IMG file. If you starte with a LOCKED IMG it remains a LOCKED IMG. The key and UNL file just temporarily authorize the GPS to use the map. At boot time, the GPS reads the map IMG file product ID, the SD card serial number, and also the 25 character unlock key which came from the keygen. It basically reverses the key code and verifies that the particular map is authorized for use with a specific SD card (by serial number) or it will not load the map.

In the other method, the fast IMG unlocker will phisically modify the gmapsupp.img file and remove some data in such a way that when the GPS reads the map, it determines that is not a "locked" IMG so it will simply read, and use it.

like you said "x:\garmin\gmapsupp.unl <-- the unlock file you don't use an UNLOCKABLE gmapsupp.img."
ps. I will also try to use the fastimgunlocker since it makes more sense when I have two diff. unit. I will post the update to see if both units work. Thanks very much for your help. BTW, both paid like 149.00 per SD card....

I assume that $149 included a chart? If so, you can even explore that card and pull the files off of it of you like. That way you get to see the directory structure and if there is an UNL file on those cards you can recover the S/N of thos SD cards for future uses if you like.

see my comments in red above.
Both units WILL work if you go the "FastIMGUnlocker" route.

Hello Tiger...you're the best! I gained so much knowledge from you about Garmin. I will use FastIMGunlocker just to be on the safe side. Will report back to you to see if both units work.

My next project is to get garmin to work on my Navigon 2100. I got Igo, Igo Amigo, Igo Primo, Destinator work on my Navigon 2100 on an 8gig card. Still have room for Garmin :-)

thanks again for your wisdom and patience.

ps. FastIMGunocker is running now...takes forever to unlock. The gmapsupp.img is more than 2.5 gig, it guess I'll take a walk and come back and hopefully it will unlock by then.

Hello Tiger.. more questions please.
FastIMGunlocker unclocked the gmapsupp.img, it closed by itself, but there's now new file name. I'm assuming it re-write/unlocked and used the same file name, correct?
Also, once it unlocked or converted. Just put the same file to garmin folder and nothing else, no need for any other file? When inserted the sd card into the unit, it should start booting and setting up, correct? The reason I'm being so detailed in questions is because my bros are in diff. states and they are not good with computer.
The 149.00 per sd card they paid i think include charts, boyes...etc....according to them. I'm not a boat person :-)

I think you have an old version of FIU, download the latest 2.1
Drag&drop the .img in FIU icon,let it work , that's all - Copy it in a Garmin folder in sd as gmapsupp.img, will work fine in your plotter

thanks for the tip Catymag :-)
