|
|
How do I get the tracks I have imported,shown on the SATMAP as tracks like I have just drawn on MM ?
They appear, once imported as grey coloured direction arrows.
I want too see my tracks I drew in MM,to appear on the SATMAP as I drew them.IE,lines on my GPS map.
So I can pick and choose what lanes I want to ride as I go along,not a planned route.
PLEASE HELP |

I use MM and have not had the trouble you mention.
I export the route/track as a gpx file and then import though SatSync. Works every time.
How are you exporting from MM and how do you import to Satmap? |

It sounds like you haven't activated the route
When a route is first imported it is imported as "inactive".
Depending on how you have your settings routes will either appear on the map as either
1) "Show inactive routes start point" (a single grey arrow) (default)
2) "Show inactive routes" (the whole route in grey)
3) "Hide inactive routes" not shown at all (hidden)
As you seem to have the single grey arrow you need to activate the route.
There are a couple of ways to do this:-
1) Go to the map where you see the grey start point, hover the orange target over the start point and press down the joystick, this should bring up the name of the route and show a green tick and green tick with a red line though it, nudge the joystick to the left so the box appears on the green tick without the red line and press the joystick down again.
You will now see the route - press start.
Your route should now show as a yellow trail with green waypoints.
The second method is to go to the routes menu, navigate to the route and press view, then start.
You can change how the routes appear as described above by going to the settings menu and then into "Set Trip Data"
Hope this answers your problem. _________________ Satmap A10. Platform 09.02.21, Software version 1.50 Satsync 1.50
