Say I download 20 waypoints I find them on the GPS area of GSAK I seem to only be able to download only one waypoint How do I get all of the 20 waypoints to my GPS? Thanks for help Quote Link to comment
+wingryder Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hi I am not a GSAK user so someone else will have to chime in there but I use Pocket Queries and Easy GPS and download 500 caches (waypoints) at a time in about a minute. Good Luck wingryder Quote Link to comment
+Sputnik 57 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 In GSAK, click on "Search/filter" and sort for the caches you want to send. Then hit the lightning bolt to show just those caches. On the tool bar, hit the (other) lightning bolt to send these caches to your GPSr (or click on "File/export . . .") Caches should now be on your GPSr. To get the same info your your Palm, hit the globe icon on the tool bar to generate a Cachemate PDB file. Then sync your palm. Open Cachemate, and viola!

+eclose Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 When I send a list of 20 waypoints to GPS I still only get one on my GPS Quote Link to comment
+NightPilot Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 When the dialog comes up in GSAK to send the waypoints to the GPS, make sure the top line says send 1 through 20, not just 1 through 1. You can tell GSAK how many waypoints, and which waypoints, to send, it doesn't just squirt everything. Read the dialog boxes that come up carefully, all the stuff on there means something and makes a difference. Quote Link to comment
+eclose Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 NightPilot,Thanks for help.I am sending 1-20 but I only get one waypoint on my GPS. I am missing something somewhere. Quote Link to comment
+ClydeE Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 NightPilot,Thanks for help.I am sending 1-20 but I only get one waypoint on my GPS. I am missing something somewhere. It sounds like you have the waypoint name box inccorrectly set and the waypoints 1-20 all have the same name, so you only get 1 waypoint in your GPS See using special tags in the help file for all "special tags" you can use but if you want the GCXXXXX code then put %code in this box, or if you would prefer a more meaningful name put %smart Quote Link to comment
