Videos: Route Planning with Basecamp for the Zumo 590/595/396

Post by jfheath »

I have no doubt that BaseCamp is the software to use when planning routes for use with the Zumo 590/595 and 396.

I have a series of short videos on YouTube which shows how BaseCamp might be used in order to prepare a route for use with the Zumos, and how to avoid some of the pitfalls.

From the Zumo side of things, I have just posted a document dealing with the issues, quirks and pitfalls that I encountered when I first bought my Zumo 590. That document is here:

Much of the document also relates to the 595 and the 396 - those Zumos with the Trip Planner App.
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !
