Only one gmapsupp.img will be recognized and no other file name.

Use separate SD card for another map

A10 can recognized more than one img file if you rename it differently. If more than one img file is store in the sdcard\map folder, A10 will also recognized them all also. Img file names have to be different eg., 12345.img,23456.img,etc.

No special setting. I just tick the mfm map, all others are unticked. BTW, mfm maps are not locked. You can immediately use it once you run the installer.
