Re: CN EU 2025.10 NTU

Have updated my 396 and XT ok but Garmin Express says that the 2024 maps are the up-t0-date ones for my 595, when Garmin says the 595 has NTU maps :?

Re: Which GPS To Buy Now

The weird behaviour of a route after Skip is pressed, we have a solution for. The changing of route point names on Transfer - we now have a fix . The XT has now become a very usable machine. After 3 years I'm starting to like it. You should be able to get a 590/595 for less than £200 in vgc with al...

Re: XT coming next week

So I went to the navigating screen, selected the speed tb to open up the trip info status, and pressed on the speed area for about 10 seconds to bring up the developer etc screens. I found under the PRSC (Power Source?) it gave loads of info, which has been mentioned in previous posts, but see that...

Re: XT coming next week

I've not used my XT for a while so just put it on charge, with a wall mounted charger that shows the amps being supplied, and it was taking over two, but the screen was still flickering a bit. So I went to the navigating screen, selected the speed tb to open up the trip info status, and pressed on t...

Re: Problem uploading a specific route to Zumo XT

Not downloaded the route etc, but is the route having the double used waypoint problem I had?

Re: I am venting about a dead XT, again.

In the hidden system menu, there is a facility for monitoring the power input and battery status in real time. I cant get to my XT to tell you exactly where it is or what the values should be, but I can post this later. The hidden system menu ? Main screen, view map. Tap the speed button, bottom le...

Re: The peculiar case of the disappearing tracks. XT & 595

I always put routes into the SD card as that way if after importing and messing around with it, I don't like the result, I can delete it and re-import the original route.

Not yet found how to send favorites to the SD card instead of the XT / 59x though.

Re: Which GPS To Buy Now

Gee whiz, there is lots of stuff here I did not know. Thanks for all the responses. One rule of thumb I'd say is that the newer the unit, the better the screen and how many functions it tries to do and how configurable it is. How many it succeeds at is the problematic area, the biggest one being ho...
