My New 400t won't calculate routes


Recommended Posts

Help. I bought this unit mostly for geocaching and hiking, but also because it is supposed to function as a decent route navigator.

 

No matter how I try to get it to caculate a turn by turn route I get a message that there are no roads near the starting point. Even if I am in the car and on a road. I updated to the beta software and that made no difference.

 

Help...

Yes, you need detail street maps for turn by turn directions.

 

From Garmin's website

"Just insert a MapSource card with detailed street maps, and Colorado provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination."

"Automatic routing (turn by turn routing on roads): yes (with optional mapping for detailed roads)"
