Motorcycle_Mama Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Are you using the proper GSAK macro to export the partial data? That unit is not capable of displaying all the data from the original PQ GPX file. Quote Link to comment

That unit is not capable of displaying all the data from the original PQ GPX file. would you be able to give me the step by step instructions to do this all i get is the name of the cashe and the terrain difficulty, no hint. I am thinking something in my settings on gsak might be screwed up. Quote Link to comment
+IBcrashen Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) Are you using this macro and installed it? And you are getting your files as .gpx files, not .loc? Next in GSAK go to Macro up top and click on Run/Manage. In that next window that opens highlight 60CSxPOI.gsk and either double click it or hit the run button. In the next window click and choose what info you want sent, check out the advance page for more options, and run it. As always know where its saving the file to. Next hook up and turn on your gps, start Garmins POI loader and run it and point the loader to where you have the file saved. thats it. Edited April 16, 2010 by IBcrashen Quote Link to comment
+ShowStop Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I'm not a fan of the POI loader, so I just add the hints and other info to the 30 char data field for each waypoint. Quote Link to comment
