There has been a lot of terminology descriptive in this discussion which I may now through a wrench into. I has been made clear that a Via Point is an alerting route point and Shaping Point is a non-alerting route point, but, I believe these points are treated differently depending on whether they ...

Triplog In your screen shot: Image1.png The points with orange flags are set as Via Points. Alerting. The points with blue discs are set as Shaping Points - Not alerting. This is how they would appear on the Zumo screen. Ignore the caption at the top which says that there are 6 Via Points. There ar...

I cant see a way if deleting an account - you may need to contact Garmin.

Your devices will be linked to one account or another. You may need to have serial numbers handy.

All good advice here. Triplog . Since you are using Basecamp, you need to be aware that Basecamp uses the word Waypoint only for the points that are created with the Waypoint flag tool. These are saved and get transferred to the Zumos Favourites or Saved locations. What is important in a route is wh...
