Hmm...
When I create a route/trip/track, call it what you like, but use BC standard settings.
BC automatically save the createt trip on the left side of screen in BC.
When finish, I just mark the newly createt trip, and choise "send to unit" (assuming you already have connected the 595.
Then when you start the 595, procedure as my first reply.
Agreed, it should be that simple.
The OP indicates his unit is not doing that, so I assume there's something wrong with either his GPS, or his SW, or his methods.
OP, if you're still having problems, here's my .02:
Power the GPS, and erase everything. Routes, Favorites, Track Logs, anything that can be erased. Then, turn it off, and remove the battery. Wait 30 seconds, and re-insert the battery. Do not turn it on yet. (ie: this cleans and resets the GPS).
Now, over to Basecamp. Create a simple trip. If possible, start it from your front door, or somewhere close. End it at a reasonably close location, maybe only 10 minute walking distance (so, you can walk the trip, to test it).
Turn on the GPS. Allow it to boot. Attach the GPS to the Basecamp device, and upload your newly created trip after the BC device recognizes the newly attached device.
When finished with the upload, then Close Basecamp. Now eject the GPS from the Basecamp device. (Use the OS to perform the eject the GPS from the Basecamp device OS, or just "pull the cord". You choose, but remember which way you did). Now turn off the GPS.
At this point, you should have the trip stored in the GPS memory, but not yet Imported into the GPS route / track management embedded system support SW (if that makes sense to you).
Turn on the GPS, allow it to boot. At this point, you should see a request to Import a new (route / track / trip, something).
If you don't see this request, then I believe the GPS is faulty somehow. If you do see it, push the "yes" prompt. The GPS should then begin the conversion process I mentioned earlier. The GPS embedded system should "map" the requested (route / track / trip) data points to the loaded map files. When finished, there should be a trip or route selection available for you to select. There should be only one, the one you just uploaded (which is why we cleaned out everything previous to this).
If it's not there, there may be a problem with the memory card (if you have one installed), or the uploaded map images (the reference map: City, Topo, whatever), or the uploaded trip file (from Basecamp), or some other hardware problem.
You could try a new battery, or a different (new?) memory card. If there's no external memory card, then it's possible that the GPS internal memory was full from the previous tracks / files.
If you do see the created trip imposed over the displayed map, then go walk it. Does the GPS now provide the expected navigation? If yes, you're done.
If no, then report back, and I'll try to give you a "what next" when you tell me what happened. If possible, please try to use the above described process flow. If you deviate from it, try to remember where you changed it, and maybe why?
Hope this helps, good luck.
