1 Garmin Zumo 660 Custom Routes folder? on Fri May 13, 2011 10:09 am

E.goldstein


Hi all,

So want mad last week and splashed a lode of cash on a Garmin Zumo 660

The Zumo 660 arrived last week all nice and new powered it up and it had a dead pixel on the screen “Doh!” anyway got it replaced with in a few days “nice”, so I have been playing with the Zumo easy to use, nice to have on device that can play music and have Sat Nav on at the same time designed for the bike and full water proof.

I know you can created Custom Routes on the device it’s self but I have about 10 years worth or routes that I created in Auto Route of trips to Europe and around the UK. I have a conversion tool that can convert them to just about any format including Tom-Tom, Garmin and Google maps and so on, so the question is dose anyone know which file I import the converted files into so the Zumo sees them as a Custom Route, I know on the Tom-Tom it’s the ITN folder but I am not sure which one for the Garmin.


E.goldstein “they watching you”! Suspect

Er yes but they are not very water proof and you cannot see the screen in bright sun light plus my not so Smart Phone is keeps forgetting to look up to find the satellite Shocked


Anyway sorted now I used my convert tool and created a GPX file and put it in the X:\Garmin\GPX “where X: is the zumo” worked first time.
