Also when I attempt to extract the 1.5.1 download I get an error reading that says it is "not a valid Win32 application" So I don't know what to do with that either. I believe that the "gas gauge" like screen that has been referred to is actually the warning that you have reached the Current Trail limit of 10,000 pts. This was a v1.5 enhancement. Prior to that there was no indicator to let you know if you had reached the maximum. To delete your current trail and disable it --- To remove current tracks/trails... Go to --- Find>Trails>Current Trail>More options>Reset That will remove the tracks, but you will be begin a new trail unless you disable "Trail Settings". To Disable ... Go to --- Settings>Trail Settings>Disable Lowrance Pro Staffer, just trying to get the facts on Endura straight

Hi there, Ok, I tried what you suggested and these were the same steps I took before to try to download the 1.5.1 update. The problem is, the update is on the SD card but the O&B GPS unit will not load the update. When I reconnect the USB cable (step 6 you listed below) the update does not automatically begin installing.....nothing happens....no prompts, nothing. When I hold down the menu button to check to see if the upgrade took it shows that it did not. Any other advice? Thanks! Also when I attempt to extract the 1.5.1 download I get an error reading that says it is "not a valid Win32 application" So I don't know what to do with that either. Check your Navigation Setting... Settings>Navigation>Destination Reached>Off. Remember if it shows Off when you get to the final step, don't touch the screen. If it shows On your GPSr will stop navigating at about 40 ft. Also, don't expect your GPSr to get you to GZ (Ground Zero), consider 10 feet as a good outcome. It is nice when you see 0-7 feet, but in fact, you may be 10-20 ft away. As for the upgrade question---I don't use a USB Cable, so I have to refer to the instructions on the Lowrance website, as you probably did. So....let's assume that neither one of us has read the instructions. I will take away all non-essential words from the instructions. 1. Click on the Endura 1.5.1 update link. 2. I save the software update to my desktop. Then I unzip the file by right clicking and selecting "extract" and saving it to my desktop. 3. Do not turn on your Out&Back until after you insert the MicroSD card into the card slot. Make sure it is all the way in. (I always use a blank card). DO NOT TURN ON YOUR UNIT YET. Connect your O&B to your pc using the USB cable. Your O&B will power on and your PC will recognize the MicroSD card. 4. Select and copy the extracted .exe file to your SD Card. 5. Unplug the USB cable and make sure the O&B is off. Do not remove the SD Card. 6. Reconnect your USB cable. Your O&B should power on and the update will automatically begin installing. Follow the prompts. (I have installed many software updates to my 6 Enduras, sometimes I got prompts and other times I didn't.) It should not take long. 7. Once it is complete the screen should say "Press any key to continue" 8. Disconnect the USB Cable and remove the SD Card. Restart the unit. It will reboot. I know that these are pretty elementary instructions, but I have found that taking out extraneous verbiage is helpful. If the download is successful, it will load and you will see the Language Selection Screen. Now you can check to see that your O&B has version 1.5.95881 (which is actually 1.5.1) Power on and hold down the Menu Button. If there is anything in these steps that you don't understand, or aren't working for you please let me know. Once I hear from Groundspeak regarding the 30 day trial Premium Membership coupons I will PM you with a Promo Access code. Lowrance Pro Staffer, just trying to get the facts on Endura straight
