Introduction

The Magellan MobileMapper CX unit comes with standard pro-

grams allowing Internet access and email exchange while be-

ing still in the field.

MobileMapper CX lets you go to the Internet using one of the

following two connections:

• Via a Bluetooth-enabled, GPRS-enabled cell phone.

• Via a WiFi network using the WiFi-certified USB adapter

model 5421A from U.S.Robotics. This adapter should be

purchased separately.

While a GPRS connection can be established from virtually

anywhere, as far as mobile phone networks are available,

WiFi-type local area networks on the other hand require that

your location be within range of a WiFi access point.

Once you get an Internet connection, you can:

•Use Internet Explorer to access web sites, including web-

mail services. Note that with some webmail services, you

cannot attach files to your emails.

•Use Inbox to access your personal email account, receive

and send emails, possibly with attached files (your GIS

jobs for example).

GPRS Connection

Please refer to Step-by-Step Procedure for Establishing a

GPRS Connection Via Bluetooth on page 18 for details. Then

run Internet Explorer to access your Internet services or Inbox

to send emails.
