Master Reset On 60csx/60cx

[+Train_Man]

Hi

 

I've got a 60CSx and I want to do a factory reset on it. What is the key combo for the new 60X series to do a reset? Also, I know there was a boot diagnostics page on the older etrex models. Is there one on the 60X series?

 

Thanks!

From the Setup Section of the FAQ:

 

8. How can I start up the GPSr in diagnostic mode? Hold ENTR while powering up to enter test mode.

 

9. I read somewhere about another debug page. How do I see that? From the Trip Computer page, press up, right, down and left on the rocker key. A debug page appears. There is a screen shot in this post and a discussion in the few following posts

I read something additional to this page on a german forum

http://www.cachebrett.de/garmin/versteckte...inationen-60csx

 

if you hold down QUIT, MENU, ZOOM OUT while POWER-ON you get a Master-Reset of the device.

PAGE, ENTER while POWER-ON is just a reset of the user data.

I had a serios problem with my Garmin 60csx: I got no satellite fix, even with the described master reset.

No satellites appeared in the display at all.

 

I wanted to send it to garmin but tried one thing at last:

opened the garmin, solded out the small battery, short-cut of the battery-connectors to really reset that dadgum thing, solded in the battery -> Works again!

This was really a hard reset.
