PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Garmin GPSMap 60 help
I have a GPSMap 60 and reading the speil about it it should have a capacity of 1000 waypoints. The most i can load however is 50 waypoints as saved marks and any new marks recorded overwrite some other marks. I can not find another page or location of waypoint lists so I am presuming the 1000 includes points of interest and route waypoints as well.
Has anybody come across this anomaly with this particular machine before?
G'day Jack, I have one of these units.
Although mine is a Gpsmap 60C. (colour)
Do you use mapsource? Connect the gps to the PC and you will quickly see all the crap that is in there such as Garmins head office mark etc!
You can delete all that is not needed from the pc and then send the 'clean' file back to the gps.
I have two maps on the PC, one is the land one, and the pacific map. For the land one, I deleted all of the area's apart from QLD.
I own a GPS60. You will probably find 900 waypoints are already stored - places like Sydney, Perth, Cairns,Gladstone are already stored in the GPS when its purchased.
You will probably have to delete all of the unwanted ones, if you want more memory.
I believe many overseas cities are also stored
It looks like you have some deleting ahead of you !!!!!!!!!!
I forgot to say!
Upload what is on the gps now, and save that as say 'original map'.
Then start deleting routes, wp's and POI's etc. Then 'save as' say 'first map', load that to the gps. This way, you can always go back and get bits from the original file.
What I do after every reef trip, is save the file as 'reef 260208', then delete the tracks and routes, but keep any new marks I found.
