I have the data leads but none of the programs I normaly use seam to work. i spoke to the Garmin People at Earls Cout on Sunday and they suggested aprogram called PC100. Does anyone have this or know where I can get it Thanks I have a Garmin GPS II+, which only holds 500 waypoints, so I have to trim the TP list before loading it into the GPS. I use TPSelect to generate a turnpoint file containing a suitable selection of turnpoints. It reads the "Waypoints in ASCII format" file and saves selected waypoints in a variety of formats including EWview and PCX5AVD 2.05 formats. Follow links from the turnpoints page in the BGA website to get it. I use flexGPS to load an PCX5AVD format waypoint file into my Garmin GPS. flexGPS can be downloaded from http://home.t-online.de/home/flexgps/ and is straight forward to use provided that you know that its waypoint viewing and uploading functions are totally separate: - You can load a waypoint file into it and zoom into the display, see details if selected turnpoints, etc OR you can copy a file from disk into your Garmin or vice versa. - You cannot display a TP file, select some TPs and expect to save them or send them to your Garmin. Both these are Windows programs that work fine under Win95 and should therefore be OK under 98 or ME - I don't know if they work with W2K or XP. -- martin@ : Martin Gregorie gregorie : Harlow, UK demon : co : Zappa fan & glider pilot uk : |
