Re: Internal Storage

Ok, now very clear what you're doing. What you're seeing is normal. All Garmin devices on boot up look in both the GPX folder on the device and the one on the SD Card. Any new . gpx files that are found are merged with what's in the internal memory. This is why you're seeing them subsequently on bo...

Re: Internal Storage

Use File Manager to search both the Zumo and the SD card for *.gpx files. You can delete TEMP.gpx and CURRENT.gpx from the Zumo:gpx/ folder. other .gpx files would need to be looked at to determine what you've got there. Personally, I find this is where MapSource shines, as you can look at the gpx ...

Re: Internal Storage

Are you sure first they are going to the card? I believe so. I removed the card and plugged my Zumo back into my computer. Opening Base Camp, I see only Internal Storage and no user memory. Re-inserting the SD Card, then User Memory now reappears in Base Camp. When I click on User Memory I see in t...

Re: 595 Constantly Changing My Route

If you didn't before, check: Setting/Traffic/Optimize Route -> should be set to "On Request' (might be set to 'Automatic' and it wil then change your route if the Zumo thinks there is traffic) At Settings/Traffic I get "Smart phone link is required to receive live traffic updates. For mor...

Internal Storage

I have a 64gb SD micro card installed. In Base Camp it shows up as Memory Card/User Data. When I "move" a route I've developed in Base Camp to my 595 I simply copy it to my memory card using the drag & drop method. Why then is my internal storage filling up with all these routes? There...

Re: 595 Constantly Changing My Route

Well that's even stranger. Couple of points have already been mentioned but do you have traffic trends on that model? It can often give unexpected results. Not sure what traffic trends is. I searched through many settings and found a map layer called traffic. Is this what you mean? While in the map...

Re: 595 Constantly Changing My Route

All routing settings the same on Basecamp and the zumo? The only routing settings I see in Base Camp are Edit/Options/Activity Profile/Routing. Are there more? Is there a requirement to have them the same? How is this possible? Some things show up in 595 menus that are not in Base Camp and vice ver...

Re: 595 Constantly Changing My Route

Well that's strange but I guess possible. BaseCamp passes the various points to your Zumo, and on certain parts of a route you may find it occasionally makes changes but I've never known a device make the sort of changes you mention. I always load the trip into my GPS, then look at it in BC to ensu...

Re: 595 Constantly Changing My Route

Strange. When you opened the route in trip planner and selected Go you're offered a choice of waypoints/viapoints depending on how many you have. How many were there? Which one did you select? If you want to follow the route you must select the first one. If you select any other one, apart from the...

595 Constantly Changing My Route

Here's what I did: I used Base Camp to create a route, using enough waypoints to ensure nothing got changed by the 595. I preview the route on the 595 and sure enough, the route is exactly what I want it to be. Cool beans! Then when I get on the road traveling from my Beginning Point to my first way...
