#TRANSFER GARMIN WAYPOINTS TO CLOUD DOWNLOAD#
I can get on gc.com and download the gpx file and use the Kingston app on my idevice and save it directly to the memory card in my gps. I use the usb cable to plug the gps into the router which creates its own wireless signal that I bridged to my home network. I looked into it and ended up ordering one and no longer need my computer. i posted in the 64st/650t comparison post about this and someone suggested the kingston mobilelite g2 wireless router. When I first got my Oregon 600 I was looking for a way to wirelessly send geocaches from my iPad or my iPhone to my gps and ditch my old laptop. Now this might be a crazy idea and please tell me if I'm wrong.

#TRANSFER GARMIN WAYPOINTS TO CLOUD BLUETOOTH#
It would be ideal if we could just tell all searchers to place their GPS device on the table within a few feet of the laptop, then we click one button on the laptop, and everything (selected tracks and waypoints from the mapping program on the laptop) is transferred wirelessly to all of the GPS devices at the same time.Īnyone know of a way to do this, or anything approaching this ideal goal, with either ANT on Garmin GPSMap 62s(t/c/tc), or bluetooth on 64s(t)? alternative for Garmin mass-storage models (62, 64, etc): generate/export/download the gpx from the mapping program onto the computer, then just copy the gpx file to the right directory on the handheld (of course the NPAPI phase-out is forcing us to find alternatives.) for Garmin handhelds: Garmin Communicator Plugin from our (offline) web-browser-based mapping program Then we transfer the data using one of a few methods: Right now, one at a time, we plug in from the USB port of a laptop to the mini USB port of the GPS. Because this upload procedure has to be repeated for every GPS, when there are a truckload of searchers, there is a LOT of lag time and a LOT of opportunity to streamline the process. We want to (generally) send out all searchers with the same data.
Our search and rescue team would like to streamline our procedure of sending tracks and waypoints from Windows computers to GPS handhelds. This is not strictly related to geocaching, but there are some very interesting (but not promising) related posts on this forum, so the knowledge base seems to visit here. Hello, first post here, apologies in advance.
