Re: XT touch screen sensitivity is too much

You cannot adjust screen sensitivity, I have not experienced any issues, or indeed read about other people with the same problem.

I run mine with a screen protector.

Re: Quick Questions

The Zumo XT is meant to use Basecamp or the new system Garmin Explore. Mapsource although popular has not been valid for years now.

Re: new user questions

Hi! Just bought XT and have a couple of questions: 1. Is it possible to switch off the current speed indicator during routing? I have my Zumo mounted next to my dashboard and it is annoyingly showing different speeds than the dashboard digital indicator. It is annoying to have two speed indicators ...

Re: Export routes from Basecamp to XT via smartphone

Ever since the last update on the XT I can't get routes to transfer from my phone to the XT, keep getting and error message. Any ideas how I can resolve this? I think you will first need to export the Basecamp data ...

Re: CN EU 2022.10 NTU

Have you had any problems with it. I cannot get it to download to the PC. It will not give an option. Wont work on laptop either. Been reported. Seems I am not alone. :evil: Downloaded to my PC without a problem. There seems to be a major issue with the Zumo XT not downloading the maps to PC. Inter...

Re: Considering semi-permanent fairing mount

I just got a Zumo XT and I am thinking about fabricating a semi-permanent mount on my fairing (FXRT fairing on a Harley Softail). Basic concept as of now is to use the Zumo XT mount and power cable, then make a hood/frame around the unit (probably 3D printed). For those who have had this GPS unit f...

Re: Increasing reduction in serviceability and reliability

Are you sure that you have posted this in the correct section, as the XT only came out in March last year - that's 15 months! As I am sure you will appreciate, new units always seem to have a few bugs & software updates during their early life, frustrating but a fact of life. The current issue w...

Re: Easy solution to install City Navigator maps on PC/Mac

Did you update Express first? The latest version is meant to have resolved this? Garmin have deleted GE 7.6 & reverted to 7.5 as the new software did not work & was loading locked maps to Basecamp. I currently have a case open with Garmin support to hopefully get this resolved. It does howe...

Re: Easy solution to install City Navigator maps on PC/Mac

Contact Garmin support, like I have & insist they sort the problem out. We should not be doing their job for them.
