+BikeBill Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Today I was out doing some cold weather caching (~24F) and had a strange thing happen several times. I would select a new cache on the 64s's Geocache page, then hit the page button to cycle it through to the Map page. Instead of the Map, the Compass page showed up. I figured I did it wrong and cycled through to the Map page again and got the Compass page again. So I went to another page (like Geocache or Compass) stopped long enough to open it, then cycled on to the Map page and it opened properly. This happened several times this afternoon. Now that I'm home (and warm) it's behaving. Anyone run into this before? Edited February 25, 2015 by BikeBill Quote Link to comment
+BikeBill Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 From the lack of response, I guess it's just me. It happened again today, though only once. Maybe its a temperature thing. Quote Link to comment
+JohnCNA Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I never had this happen with my 64s. I've had it 10 months. Were you using the default Page Ribbon menu? I never cared for that, so I turned it off. Maybe it's related to that. Quote Link to comment
+BikeBill Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Yes, I am using the ribbon menu. I'll turn it off and see what happens. Thanks! Edit: After fooling with the unit for a while, I can't figure out how to turn the ribbon menu off. Advice? Edited March 1, 2015 by BikeBill Quote Link to comment
+andyakashrek Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I believe selecting classic profile will do it. Quote Link to comment
Forkeye Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Well if its the same as the 62 series its, main menu, setup, page sequence, then menu, and you will see the choices, select ribbon and you can turn it off or select two speeds. Edited March 1, 2015 by Forkeye Quote Link to comment
+BikeBill Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Forkeye: You da Man! I fooled around with all kinds of pages last night and knew the menu key was the way to get to secret stuff. I never tried that combination though. That worked for me and without the ribbon my page problem will probably be solved. I'm not sure what the purpose of the ribbon is unless it's just some eye candy to show the page name. Quote Link to comment
Forkeye Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) The ribbon page is not eye candy, it allows you to quickly scroll to any screen/page, forward or backward. I like using it. I think you would find it more useful if you have more screen/pages to scroll through as it makes shifting to the screen you want faster than going through each screen. Set the delay to fast, slow delay seems too slow. Edited March 2, 2015 by Forkeye Quote Link to comment
+BikeBill Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 <<...it allows you to quickly scroll to any screen/page, forward or backward.>> I can understand that. I'll try it again when the weather warms up. As is, the 64s is pretty fast getting from page to page without the ribbon (with the exception of the Geocache page) and also goes backward though them with the Exit key. I keep five pages up front - Geocache, Compass, Map, Main and Satellite. Quote Link to comment
