I am using the Edge Touring for my customers.
I rent electrical bikes with half day routes, on these garmins.
There is extra touristical info in a booklet, linked to waypoints.
I have 10 devices, on which I load the tour that they want to ride.
This gives the custromer on the Edge touring:
- 1 route under Saved > Courses,
- the waypoints are under Saved > locations.
The routes were recorded with the edge touring.
The waypoints are created in Basecamp,
exported to a .gpx file and loaded via the Garmin\NewFiles folder.
This works fine.
However I have 2 questions:
- Can I use my own icon ('custom symbol') for the waypoints? On the Garmin forum,
I read that this should be possible in software 2.70, that I run,
but I cannot find how to get this done.
This should replace the actual symbol <sym>Navaid, Green</sym>.
How do I name the custom symbol?
In what folder should I put the .bmp file for my waypoint?
- Can I add a proximity alert,
in order to have an audible warning when I arrive at e.g. 10 m
of a waypoint?
I entered 'proximity 10m' in Basecamp,
but after loading on the Edge touring,
the waypoint is shown, but no audible alert is coming.
