Getting Started with Etrex 30


Recommended Posts

Ok I'm having a miserable time trying to figure out how to set up pocket queries, and download them to my gps. There are gpx files in there that are not even close to where I am. How do I get those removed? What program do I need to move the pocket queries to? Nothing is making much sense. Can someone explain this Barney style?

Plug your GPS into your computer. Wait until Windows asks about mass storage. Open up the folder. If you have a microSD card, then open that one. If you don't then just open the Garmin folder. Look for the .gpx file. Delete it.

 

Go back to the website and run the correct pocket query this time for your location. Hit download or generate. Then, click on the file and drag it over to the previous folder where you deleted the other .gpx files.

 

Safely disconnect the mass storage drive (your GPS).

 

Then, turn it on. You'll be good to go.

 

Have fun.
