Im guessing you have a PC3. Connect your PC3 to your computer and start the application. click the "open map file" button at the top. Select the map you want from the list. Oh yeah, be sure the ignition on the bike is on. once you open the map, it should show up on the grid on the main page. then just click "send map". Bingo, your done. If you dont have any maps downloaded, just go to the powercommander website, click applicaations, select your bike, and a list of avalible maps should show up. click on the one you want and it should download as a self extracting file to whatever folder you chose. Now go and find that file and click on it. A screen should show up, read it and click "ok", then another screen will show up, dont change anything just click "unzip". after all that the map will be in the right folder, so when you click "open map file" it will be there. Good luck!

Power Commander animated tutorials here: http://www.powercommander.com/tut_download.shtml
The tutorials will show you how to load a map on your bike.
And like bigjohn141 says - the ignition has to be on for your laptop/pc to talk to the power commander.

You can get the 9 volt adapter from the powercommander site also. Then you can load maps without the bike on or hooked up.
Which version of PC do you have
If you have the PC3USB ... Then you would have to connect the PC to a USB port on your computer, or your laptop first. Then you open the software that you downloaded from powercommander.com that is meant for the PC3 USB... You load the map in the software first, and then transfer it to the PC3! Pretty simple!
