Dakota Waypoints

[+timbo45]

I've recently moved from A Garmin Legend to a Dakota 10 as I was keen to do paperless caching. In general its a great little gadget BUT I'm having difficulty navigating to Waypoints associated with a cache and can't find any relevant info on forums etc..

It goes like this:

The Dak is set to Geocaching profile and has latest OS.

I've navigated to the published coordinates of a puzzle cache (say GC123) which requires some questions to be decoded to give the next Waypoint. This is then entered in to the Dakota as (say)WP 001.

I then use the touch screen to navigate to 001 as follows:

Where to-Waypoints-001-(it then shows map with 001 pinned) but if I then press GO the map reverts to pointing at GC123 and I can't use the compass to navigate to 001.

 

What I want is to use the compass to navigate to 001. As it is I have an idea of the distance to 001 but no indication of direction.

No one else seems to have identified this as a problem so I assume its me thats dumb??

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you go to "Where To?" does it ask to "Stop Navigation" of the cache before you can search for the waypoint in Where To?

You have to turn the geocache profile off. It took me a while to figure it out on my Oregon. I don't remember if it was the main profile or just the compass though. I just leave it that way.
