    Garmin X Series 2.62 Beta Released

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted

    Hi!

     

    I made a test logging 1/second

    It had to run over night but stopped at 22:44:19 UTC after 20360 records.

    94% full on mSD

     

    In the mornig it took 2-3 seconds when i hit any key until there was any reaction.

    I powered the unit off and on.

    a new .GPX was generated automatically.

     

    Maybe the limit will be on 20360 records or there is any other reason why it stopped recording and it is going to be slower.

     

    It was NOT possible to open the .gpx with MS 6.9.1 or MS 6.10.03Beta

    I opened it with g7towin (no problem) and saved it as an .GPX (same extension, different name)

    Now it was able to open with MS.

     

    Loggin features:

    Wrap when full

    Record Method TIME (every 1 second)

    Log Track to Data Card (94% full on 512 mSD card)

     

    Can anyone confirm this?

    2) How do we get custom POIs to show up on the map the way the user waypoints do? I can tell the CSx to show all of the map points at a certain zoom level, but then it shows me every POI (food, lodging, auto service, attractions) except my custom ones. Isn't there a way to decide which icons show up and which ones don't? Say, only resaurants and custom POIs? I wouldn't mind having a visual reference for when I'm near a cache or a restaurant, but I could care less how close I am to the nearest community center.... <_<

    How To Display Poi On A Gpsmap60csx

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted

    I do not know how to display my POI-Data on the map-screen.

    Only the selected POI is visible.

    Is it possible to show all POIs on the display?

     

    I like the POI-System.

    I make small groups for different things (sortet by countries, campings, ..) and save them on the disk in different .GPX-Files in one Folder.

    uploaded by garmins poi-loader, i am possible to select via custom points of interests - select database

    But only one POI is shown on map screen

     

    Maybe the question is not new - but i was unable to search for "POI" because minimum wordlengh is 4

    Screen Repair For Scratch - Anything Less Expensive?

    If you live close to an airport try going to the pilot suppliy shop They usually sell 3 different grades of

    Meguiars canopy cleaner and scratch remover I've been using their mirror glaze 17 for years and it doe's great on cleaning and light scratches it's only about 8 bucks for an 8 ounce bottle. They should have a scratch remover kit also, which is a little more expensive but will take out deep scratches.

    do you know the company name of this scratch remover?

    From the map page if you press menu once, then choose setup map, then move over two icons to the flag. You can turn off street labels, that will get all of the smaller streets. It looks like it doesn't turn off major highways. But give it a try and see.

     

    Thanks,

    kgag.

    Map Points = OFF

    User Waypoints = OFF

    Street Label = OFF

    Land cover = OFF

     

    But (look at pic from 1. Thread) Street information ist still listed
