Re: Flying your Route in Google Earth

The Google Earth flyover facility is still available almost direct from a BaseCamp route.

From memory, export the route from BaseCamp but in KML format (BaseCamp has the option to convert) then export to Desktop.
Open GE and import the KML route.
Away you go…

Very simple and straightforward.
I’ve ...

Re: Insufficient power


I have a usb outlet on my bike, and i tried to use this outlet as a power source to my zumo xt, using the mini-usb cord(mini-usb to normal usb(usb-a) cord).

The battery on the zumo was fully charged when my trip started. After 3 hours the zumo had low battery. It seems the mini-usb cord isn't ...

You choose what you wish to save. Name it something memorable, and then it displays in BC library pane.

If they are tracks that were created on the device by a ride, I am curious how you got them into BaseCamp. I have never created a track on my XT so this is new territory to me.



Peobody - I've had another look at this, using the XT device (I previously mentioned using tracks from ...

Re: Trip Log / Track History Data

You specifically mention trip log/track history which, to me, is device data not BaseCamp data.


I have also transferred the track history / active logs to Google Earth, from the XT, within the past few months - if that's of any help?
I'm not sure if I'm answering a question you haven't ...

Hmm, I'm going to struggle with this - my memory isn't what it was :? :D
The tracks pre-date my XT device; and, in fact, some are from fifteen years ago when I used a 660-model. Then, subsequently, an NAV IV device.

ISTR that I either saved ...

Re: Trip Log / Track History Data

@Peobody

Many thanks - that's exactly the folder I was after.

(Although it IS device data, it's stuff that's been saved from earlier adventures and shows up in BC when "tracks" are selected with two dark-grey bootprints.) I hope that makes sense....

Re: Focus XT - Recalculating - The Breadcrumb Trail

I know this is an oldish thread, but it has piqued my interest.

Although the thread refers to a routing issue, and possibly implicates breaks in the the track history - did it ever get resolved by Garmin?

I was reviewing some breaks in my track history over the past few days, and noticed whenever ...
