THBigE Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I manually entered some waypoints into EasyGPS and then tried to download them to my Garmin 60CS. I looked into the waypoint list and they were not there(just the 5 geocaching waypoints I had downloaded over a month ago). I tried again but this time I notice a dialog box pop up but not long enough to see what it said. Still no waypoints. I decided to pan over to where the waypoints would be(150 miles from my location) and low and behold there they on the map itself but still not on the list of waypoints. Anybody got any ideas why they wouldn't be listed? Quote Link to comment
+kgag Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 It is because when you are viewing the waypoint list you are only seeing the waypoints nearest to you. (Somewhere around 100 miles). So any waypoints over 100 miles away will not be seen by default. You can change the waypoint to find by name instead. Find, Waypoints, Menu Button, choose Find By Name. Maybe test the theory and plug a waypoint in a bit closer to your current locale. Thanks, kgag. Quote Link to comment
THBigE Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 I notice after I posted that at the top of the display it does say something to the effect that these are the waypoints nearest to me. I'll give what you said a try, you're probably right. Thank you Quote Link to comment
+Sputnik 57 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 This is such a frequently asked question, that it is question no. 5 in the Waypoints Section of the FAQ. Quote Link to comment
