I’m a newbie to the GPS world and this forum. I have a new 60CSX and Mapsource City Nav N America on my computer. I’m trying to learn to create Routes on Mapsource and navigate them on my 60 CSX. I have created a test route of my neighborhood which has about a dozen turns and covers about 2.5 miles. I having the following issues and would appreciate some help. I figure I’m just doing something wrong:
1: As I navigate the route the displays indicates I’m approaching a street that I’m supposed to turn on but it never tells me to actually turn. If I go ahead and turn it catches up and show the new street I’m on but then says approaching the next street but never shows to turn. It’s as if the GPS is running behind my actual location and then tries to catch up. Sometimes the GPS seems to just get lost and reverts to another part of the route.
2. When I display the actual directions either Mapsource or the GPS has inserted a u-turn that I didn’t intend. It’s like the GPS is trying to re-route me. Is there a way to edit out the u-turn and force the GPS to follow the route I created without trying to correct me?
3. When I select the GPS to display the actual turn direction it alternates between the map view and the turn list. Is that normal or is there a way to make it stay on the turn list?
