If anyone knows a link to easy directions. on getting geocaches on the gpsr

 

please help me out so i can see if Im keeping it.....

Hi there,

 

You may want to check the PN-40 wiki that you can find here.

There's also a lot of info to be found here as well.

Hope this helps.

 

The DeLorme forum SimiRich pointed to is a good place to ask. One thing you might try is different usb ports. My laptop won't see the PN-40 on the rear port, only the front.

I just got my PN-40 as well, and you need to upgrade the firmware. I had the exact problems you describe until I loaded the 2.4 firmware (it came with 2.3).

 

Shortly thereafter I discovered that they have the 2.5 RTM firmware available in their forums.. I loaded that and everything is groovy so far. Here it is.

 

Edit: <sigh> Looks like the problem wasn't solved. I really don't want to go through returning this thing.
