Garmin 510 navigation


JeffD

Recommended Posts

Today I tested the navigation/ routes function of my Garmin 510 with a Spruit route in preparation for Berg and Bush as I had never used the function before.

 

When I got to the end, the Garmin peeped, displayed end of "training ride" & then switched off by itself straight away. I now have no data from my ride as the ride wasn't saved which you usually do manually.

 

I don't want this to happen after 99km of Berg and Bush Day 1 & I'm a bit bleak that I've lost a ride in terms of stats, goals, Strava, Vitality etc etc.

 

I don't want it to happen again, please help.

 

Thanks!

I found the activity file using the USB connection to my laptop. The file would not manually upload to Garmin Connect, only Strava. 

 

I now have the Strava stats but Strava does not link to Vitality, only Garmin Connect, therefore this is still an issue.

 

I'd prefer save on the device & automatic sync to my phone from the get go.

 

I could not find anything of use on the DC Rainmaker website.
