Cannot get 7S to show TOPO lines to save my life!

I have a 2024 RMK with the 7S, and for the life of me I cannot get the maps to show TOPO details.

YES I have the topo option selected.

It will show hill grading no problem

I have downloaded and uploaded the most latest map update(massive file and lengthy process)

I have yet to email customer support but honestly just thought of doing this while reading old posts.

Anybody have any insights? Annoying as all hell.

Have you tried zooming in/out? Are you in a flat location? I only ride in the mountains, and if I recall the topo lines and shading only show up at certain zoom levels.......can take a while to load sometimes too.
 
Well for anyone that maybe finds this in the future, I got it to work.

Polaris doesn’t share any release notes or file names when it comes to the base map file online, so I had assumed when I downloaded the massive base map file in February, it was gonna be the most recent file.

I decided to go through the pain again of downloading, transferring to a usb stick and then uploading to the 7S, the base map file again to double check(about a 3hr round trip) and whaddya know, the file was and updated version of what I had done in February.

TOPO lines showing now!

Looks like I’ll be doing the same now😫
 
Actually, I went out to my sled and flipped it to the white screen and look at that I have topo lines now😂😂

I always run it in the dark screen, and I’m never really super concerned with top lines because we pretty much rode in the same zones and stuff so I know the terrain but you can’t really see the topo lines on the dark screen but when I switched it to the white one, it’s clear as day.
 
At least it's the right units for you. Not that hard for us to do math but also seems not that hard to have a different maps for metric and standard
Even though Canada uses the metric system, we still measure everything in freedom units, I still have to do the mental math to convert Meters to feet at a glance, no idea what elevation 1500m is in my head!
