WildHog Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I just received an Oregon 450 and I've been trying it out. When I plug in my external power cable the unit enters mass storage mode even though it's just a power cable. I have two power cables and it's done this with both; kind of hard to drive down the road in mass storage mode. I thought I remembered someone else on the forum having the same issue but I can't find the post. Anybody know what the problem is or where the previous post is? Thanks Mark Quote Link to comment
yogazoo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 It will work in this mode: Setup > System > Interface > Garmin Spanner. I think you'll have to do it this way unless and until you purchase a 12v cable made specifically for your Oregon. Quote Link to comment
Imagin0s Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 It will work in this mode: Setup > System > Interface > Garmin Spanner.

Additionally, you have to set that to Spanner in each profile you are likely to use the handheld on external power. Quote Link to comment
+eusty Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 It goes into detail about this issue on the Oregon wiki page. Quote Link to comment
