Memory map GPS beginners guide?

kopite1979

I`ve bought a memory map adventurer 2800 GPS. I took it out on the marin trail to test it out and it tracked my ride nicely but, I can`t figure out what to do next!
How do I view the route, mileage, elevation etc?

you need to transfer the route into memory map.

Open memory map and import route. Then you can view the elevation profile,speed profile etc.

says there`s nothing to import so I`m guessing I didn`t save it! aaaaarrrrgh! :evil:
do you have to press anything to save a route at the end?

Transferring routes, tracks and marks from the Adventurer 2800 to your PC
To save your routes, tracks and marks for viewing in Memory-Map on your PC please follow the steps below:
In Memory-Map on the 2800 tap the 1) Menu button and then the Settings button and then select Overlay > Save As from the menu. Give the file a name using the keyboard button and then tap OK to save.
Connect your Adventurer 2800 to your PC with the supplied USB cable and tap the 2) USB Mass Storage button on the screen. The 2800 will now be seen by your PC as two removable drives.
In Memory-Map on your PC click 3) Overlay > Import. In the Open window that appears choose the Removable Drive that contains the SD card inside the unit. It can be easily identified as it will contain a number of Memory-Map folders and a Userdata folder.
Double-click on the Userdata folder and then open the file you previously saved on your Adventurer 2800. The overlay file will now be displayed on your PC.

Hi,
Maybe a little bit different problem but also refering into Memory Map.

I'm a little bit techno-phobic regarding navigation. Printed map still is the best thing for me.

However it is dificult to run from all this techno-fad...

Downloaded few routes/tracks from Godiva Trailriders and wanted to view them on my PC. Went into Memory Map website - track were saved as .mmo - and downloaded app for PC.

Everything seems to be fine but my screen looks like this:



How can I view actual route, not only this orange, squashed fly in the middle of map? Am I missing something? Or just unable to magnify map because of my PC-indolence (map seems to be at it's max magnification).

Cheers!
I.
