English Web Tools Introduction The Magellan MobileMapper CX unit comes with standard programs allowing Internet access and email exchange while being 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 webmail 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. 58
