Course "FIT" files
Former Member
Folks, for a Garmin 810; I can only load 6 "FIT" course files, tricky. How do I load 12. The 810 keeps deleting anything after a count of 3. Any and all help appreciated. I have tried methods many, hence the ability of 6 files but no more, ie, 3 per Folder="Courses". Thanks, Leo.
. Thank you for responding to my help request. I do appreciate what assistance I receive. Loading .gpx files is not a problem. Indeed, I can/could load any file onto the device. The problem: the device only seems to support 3 course files at any one time. Having said that, it is possible to load a further 3files but this is a clunky work-around. Using GarminConnect, I can download 4 or more ".fit" file to the device via Garmin Express (who designed this antiquated need of GarminExpress). These land into the folder "newFiles". Ok so far. Upon rebooting the 810, the files will reside in the folder "Courses". Ok again, but, anything above a random choice of 3 will be lost/deleted. This has to be an aberrant behaviour. Surely, one would not design said 810 with a limit of 3 course file. This makes no sense. Thus; HOW, does one load greater than 6 fit files onto a Garmin 810. I have not tried more than 2 gpx, have not tried tcx files. Presently, my focus is on ".fit" files. Again, thanks for suggestions or clarification.
