Welcome Harry.
You don't have to use Basecamp - but it is the best tool for the job in my opinion.
Install Basecamp
Install Garmin Express
Use express to install the same maps on the computer as the ones on your XT
Dont have Express running at the same time as Basecamp.
Ask if you need help.

Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes)
Zumo 590, 595 & Basecamp pdf link
Zumo XT & BC Link
Today, I discovered something really important. I found another way that doesn't work.

Thank you, and I agree, looks easiest to use Bascamp and Expressjfheath wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 9:58 pm Welcome Harry.
