Re: New xt2 ... using mra 1.1gpx problem with routes not importing
When setting off, I used to select my start point rather than closest entry point but I’ve found on the XT2, that triggers a complete new calculation (after it has already calculated the route) so will probably just accept closest entry from now on. I'm not convinced by those statements. I find t ...

Re: Introducing TripManager
There is no option to disable synch on the XT2 or on your phone. Instead You have to reset the XT2 and delete the Tread app from your phone and then reinstall it - without enabling synchronisation or data storage. You have to: Copy your CurrentTrackLog.gpx and Archive folder if you like to keep your ...

Re: Report Safety Camera button
Next time I am out, I will try to find routes that have speed cameras - there aren't many round here. I'm on the edge of North Yorkhsire and N Yorkshire police don't use static cameras, they have sophisticated camera vans and motorcycles that change location every hour - but I know where there are ...

Re: New xt2 ... using mra 1.1gpx problem with routes not importing
Yes it does. But so does Basecamp. Bc and Mra allow you to create a gpx file and open it using Drive / Tread, which then sends it to the Zumo - but that then opens up all of the Tread issues. You could transfer files via an sd card. I havent tried acessing the XTs with a USB connection to the phone ...

Re: New xt2 ... using mra 1.1gpx problem with routes not importing
proofresistant Before you throw your XT2 at the wall.... 1. Reset your XT2 to factory condition. 2. Delete the Tread app from your phone. Do not install Tread. Create your routes as GPX files, make sure that you use shaping points to stop the route heading for faster roads. This doesn't mean 'lace ...

Re: How do you preserve a track's shape when adding waypoints?
Good advice from @Peobody. If you turn a track into a trio - I call it a track trip - it becomes a fixed magenta line that behaves like a normal point to point route. Except it has bo points. Track-Trips are fixed - they will not alter - except if you stray away from the magenta line, the Zumo will ...

Re: Report Safety Camera button
Ive just been replying to another thread....about waypoints on the map.... Try turning on 'Up Ahead Places' within the map layers area. It will show all sorts of other icons, but if that reveals the speed cameras, other stuff can be tuned out by adding your own search categories to display . I don't ...

Re: Best way to import gpx with tracks and points of interest?
I'll just add this - because I found what I was looking for. It turned out that on my 590 or 595, Saved Waypoints were not showing up on the map becasue in order to do so, 'Up Ahead Places' needs to be selected. If that option is ticked then the Waypoint 'Heart' symbol showed on the map for all ...

Re: Zumo XT not following route
And it will not be better, not to use Garmin Basecamp for tour making? In spite of what Garmin says, Basecamp is still the best tool for the job (in my opinion). Garmin have stopped allowing their maps to be installed on the computer if you are using an XT2 - but I have older Zumos and can install ...

Re: Best way to import gpx with tracks and points of interest?
It would be great if I could make a trip out of a track that doesn't turn it into a route but I'm not sure that functionality is present. On the 595, the option to convert a track to a trip is in: Apps->Tracks->Select Track -> Spanner (icon, top left corner of map lanscape view) -> Convert to Trip ...
