Re: Zumo XT Fails to Calculate & Display Route Segment Info
Since jfheath raised the topic of editing the themes available on the Zumo XT, I thought worth sharing this for those folks who dabble with this. A useful free editor for Garmin Theme files can be downloaded from here: http://www.pinns.co.uk/osm/theme_editor.html This editor provides a graphical ...

Re: Long Routes
As a point of clarity, can a route handle 29 via points or 30 via points? The Garmin support page (see https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=7S1IiE1e7H4Iw1svGjJlb6 ) indicates 30 waypoints (which I understand means your start point, end point, along waypoints and/or via points) and I have read ...

Re: Long Routes
Modern Garmins can only handle up to 29 via points in a route, more than that and you'll get the behaviour you describe. As a point of clarity, can a route handle 29 via points or 30 via points?

Re: Definition Changes - Trip vs Route ??
First, I have to agree with danham . We need to not overthink Garmin's use of terminology. Garmin has never been consistent with their terminology. I suspect their use of terms has evolved as they modified (or added, or decided not to add) functions to their devices. If you look at the menu bar in ...

Re: Garmin Drive to Garmin XT issues
Normally I do my planning in Basecamp. I save (export) my trip data to a GPX file, after which I manually copy the GPX file to the micro-SD card in my Zumo XT. Here is a technique I have recently been experimenting with for transferring routes and tracks to my Zumo XT. First, I plan my trip in ...

Re: ZUMO XT questions from newbie
3) Any advise for a sport tourer with a Zumo XT, traveling across the country in a month or so? BTW I have a Packtalk slim connected as well. If you have not used a Zumo XT much, read and study the information in the thread titled "Zumo XT and Basecamp - Everything You Need to Know" pinned at the ...

I recall seeing settings on the Navigator 6 that may shed some light on the margin for "hitting" a Via Point. The Navigator 6 settings appear to be applicable to Waypoints, not Via ...
