taun36 Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I recently purchased a Triton 500 after my Explorist 210 broke. I downloaded Vantage Point and tried to download geocaches from the website. When I try to import them to the GPS, they import as waypoints. How can I import them as geocaches so that I can use the geocache features of the Triton 500? The explorist software was much more geocache friendly... Quote Link to comment
sanramonhunter Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Run the pocket query. Once you get the email download the zip file to your desktop. Unzip the file. Open up vantagepoint(VP). if it takes up the whole screen size it to take up half the screen. Click on the libraries tab on VP and then click on geocaches. Then drag and drop the GPX file into the left side of the program. All the geocaches will populate the area. Send them to your Triton and you are done. Quote Link to comment

Visit tritonforum.com for detailed instructions on triton use. This site is very helpful. Quote Link to comment
