Bearing pointer Geocaching, on the screen that has "Delete" "Map" "Go To" at the bottom, the unit originally went to the map when I pressed the "Map" and went to the compass with the bearing pointer when I pressed the "Go To" button. Now the unit goes to the map when I press either the "Map" or the "Go To" button. If I force the thing to go to the compass page by pressing the "PAGE" button is will stay there for a while than go back to the map. The compass works the bearing pointer seem to point to the last location the map indicated for me to turn, it no case does it point to the programmed coordinates. I have no idea what I did to cause this problem but it causes me to not like the 60CSx. I would like the map to get my car and I close and than the bearing pointer to take me on in. Any help will be appreciated! [email protected]

Do you have your unit set for north up or track up? This might cause this problem.

SOURCE: I want to go Geocaching and I want to know how to enter Lat/Long or update my equipment to this?

well i'm a great geocacher and i love to help people with the GPS'rs
so you found the guy :))))
It may not be the easiest approach, but you could create a custom POI file for your Geocache locations and then load them into your c330 using POI Loader.

If you're a premium member on Geocaching.com, it's my understanding that you can download locations in GPX format. POI Loader is supposed to read GPX files, but I haven't tried it with geocache locations yet.

Do you have a geocaching account that can download GPX files?

Someone told me that you can use Long/Lat with Google Earth, and you can save Google Earth POI's in GARMIN .cvs format, to use in the PIO Loader.

SOURCE: the coordinates that I get are 30 metres off from the other GPS units that we geocache with. My settings must be off.

Yes, have you enabled WAAS on your 60CSx? WAAS is an acronym for Wide Area Augmentation System, according to the instruction manual an FAA funded service to improve overall integrity of the GPS signal through North America.

If you are in an area which is not serviced by ground stations, having WAAS enabled may degrade the signal from the GPS satellites. Try enabling or disabling this feature.

To do so, acess the System Startup Page. On the Setup Menu page, highlight the System icon and press Enter. WAAS is the second available setting on this page.

Make sure your batteries are fresh; I prefer alkalines in this model. Set the battery type in the System Setup Page, same page as noted for WAAS above.

Another thought is to be sure you have the latest Garmin software installed. Visit their site to download the latest and greatest, free, of course.

Resetting or trying to recalibrate the touchscreen does not work for this problem. Every time I try to reset or recalibrate, the Map Update Notice immediately pops up and I have not found a way to bypass this screen. I think this may be a glitch programmed by Garmin to force users to buy an upgrade after a couple of years.

You have use the unlock wizard to install the key that is provided with the software. When I bought my Mapsource CitySelect, it came with two keys. The way Garmin does it is, you can install the software as many times as you want on as many machines as you want, but can transfer the maps, data, etc ONLY to unlocked devices. Last I checked Garmin wanted $75 for additional unlocks. Some data is not locked, like Topo maps and some tide points since this data is obtained (by Garmin) from the gov't, which is free for us (wel, minus taxes we pay). Contact Garmin support, they are very attentive.
