GPS & Digital Data Discussion / Re: Where is the Download Data??
« on: April 17, 2016, 03:52:42 pm »
I am a member and can only seem to find the low res trail data without the waypoint data you used to provide.

Am I missing something. I logged in as a member. Am using a Mac / FIrefox.

GPS & Digital Data Discussion / ASA routes and turn-by-turn directions

I think I found the problem. Once I deleted all routes and waypoints then reloaded everything from mapsource, it seemed to work correctly. What are the max number of routes, waypoints and waypoints within a route?

Thanks for all of the great advice, everyone has been very helpful.

A few more questions, I created 5 routes using ASA waypoints in Mapsource. I uploaded the routes and waypoints to my legend cx. When I look at the routes, the name appears, however 3 routes are missing the waypoints that associated with them in mapsource (a route with no points). What up with this?

Is there a way to delete all the waypoints in the gps without individually selecting each and deleting?

I have created a route which follows highways through a series of waypoints. Is there a way to select a waypoint and create another waypoint that is xx miles from the selected waypoint along the created route?

I'm using a Garmin Legend CX with City Navigator maps. I have installed MapSource on my PC and downloaded the Atlanta Coast GPS data. I've have read the "GPS User Guide" from the Adventure Cycling site, however I still have a few questions with the fundamentals of using the Garmin routing software and the predefined ACA routes.

I assume that a route and turn-by-turn directions are two completely different things? A route in MapSource simply connects waypoints and turn-by-turn directions always follow roads?

If I want turn use the turn-by-turn capability of the GPS - is there a way to tell the GPS to follow the predefined ACA route rather than selecting a waypoint up ahead and having the GPS calculate the directions to the next waypoint - which may or may not follow my intended route?

Using the GPS User Guide, I understand how to import the waypoints and routes and how to build my own set to upload to the GPS. Can someone explain how it is used during an actual ride?  Do most rider have the Atlantic Coast Route displayed on their GPS then use the built in turn-by-turn capability to make the GPS create directions that follow that route? Do you select the next closest waypoint and select "go to" ?

Thanks for the help
Gregg
