I've compiled a collection of tracks and routes using Basecamp to compile one long course of over 300km along trail and road. I have all of these in a 'List' folder and want to transfer them as one whole course to my Garmin Edge 800. Every time I 'Transfer to Device' I either get nothing transferred or just get what seems like a random collection of the tracks and or routes from the 'List' folder. How do I transfer a collection of tracks and routes as one whole course to a device so they're displayed as ONE course?
I know how to join tracks cmd+J on a MAC. Problem is I've compiled a collection of Tracks and Routes, so was looking for a way to transfer them to a device. Assuming I have to join them in some way before transferring them?
Looks like my only options are: 1. Compile the whole 200mile course as a track - v time consuming. 2. Compile as a Route, but when I get to an "off-road" section use the "Direct" routing mode. Problem with this option is BC confines individual "Direct" sections to 50 points, so these have to be simple and reasonable short. No good if the track follows miles of trail :-(
Convert all routes to tracks, make a separate list to drag all track to, more clear map now, and then join all tracks to one track.
Be sure that the direction of all tracks is the same!
Then send the combined track to the Edge, it will be shown as one course in the Edge 800. If the course is very long, then be sure to switch off navigation in the settings of this course.
