Re: SD Card

That sdcard.org website does not indicate that the formatter will FAT32 format a card larger than 32GB, at least not that I could find, nor does the manual indicate that the formatter allows you to select a format. It appears that the formatter makes the decision based on the detected capacity of t...

Re: ZUMO XT2 CONCLUSIONS

I wonder if this little trick would also keep via points from being moved when converted to shaping points on the XT? That's a good question. But I have little hope. Here's why: - The trick to not have the route points is performed in Basecamp. - Via points that are moved after being converted to S...

Re: Music on SD card

I never play music while riding a bike. But I know that MP3 tags have versions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID3 There is a post on this forum stating that the XT doesn't recognise all versions: https://www.zumouserforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=9943&sid=186d5f3af4cc94fccac1861a28ffab3f#p9943 Hop...

Re: New discovery: Prevent route points from being renamed when loaded on to the XT

If I understand you correctly you first create a Waypoint that you later add to the route. Either as a Shaping, or Via point. That's the method John used to ensure route points did not rename. https://www.zumouserforums.co.uk/app.php/ZXT-P09 I am not surprised they did not rename. Having said that. ...

Re: New discovery: Prevent route points from being renamed when loaded on to the XT

When does the rename occur, on import, on calc or recalc? It happens when you import it into the XT. When the trip file is created. The trip file has, sometimes, different route point names, from the GPX file it was created from. And if the subclass value for the RTEPT is '00ff' as shown in the sam...

Re: New discovery: Prevent route points from being renamed when loaded on to the XT

I hardly ever use the insert tool. And I did see route points change their names. But I dont think using the insert tool or rubber-band is the key factor. If I remember well you like to reuse routes from previous years, that could be a reason. Because once a route is created in Basecamp, and the map...

I can only speak for myself. One of the things I like about not working anymore (As in: not getting payed for things you do) is that I dont have to deal with upset customers. So for me, that will never happen!

New discovery: Prevent route points from being renamed when loaded on to the XT

First of all. What are route points? Refer to this page for the definition: https://www.zumouserforums.co.uk/app.php/ZXT-P04 What is the problem? When you create a route in Basecamp and change the names of the route points to something meaningful and subsequently transfer the route to the XT, it wil...

Re: ZUMO XT2 CONCLUSIONS

In addition, @FrankB has concluded that route points set with the default subclass field do not have their name changed. My tests on this failed - but I suspect a faulty test on my part rather than a disagreement with Frank. I got sidetracked for about a year on the RUT issue. John, My observations...
