Transferring waypoint out of Humviewer
« on: January 31, 2010, 08:41:13 AM »
I've figured out how to create a waypoint in Humviewer using the feature in the "Utilities" button...

How do I get that waypoint back into my Hummingbird unit...??

I am a new-bee and just started using the recording function. Found all the great features on humviewer and then created weighpoints my next step was to transfer back to the unit but I hit a wall.
Now I will be watching for replies to your post to get help. Now they know that there are more than 1 person that needs help with this issue.

Hm,
took me a bit before I figured this out. But the search function and "export HumViewer" helped.

Here's what to do:

1. Go to the "File" tab in HumViewer and choose "export"

2. A pop up window opens, asking where to save what type of file.

3. Name the file (i.e. "Battleship BISMARCK" or whatever you've found) and choose "humminbird files (*gpx). Save it under "My_HumminbirdPC  in the "GPX_Files" Folder.

4. A pop up window will show asking "what to include in export". Uncheck / Check the apropriate check boxes and hit "OK" (at the bottom of the pop up window).  A pop up window will show up saying "data saved successfully".
Now the waypoint is saved in HumminbirdPC.

So far, so good.

5. Next open HumminbirdPC

6. Hit the "open file" icon in the tool bar on top of the HumminbirdPC screen.

7. Hit the File with your waypoint's name.

8. Hit "waypoints". Your waypoint will be shown. Now you can modify it with icons or rename it or whatever (in case it's not the "BISMARCK" you've found).

9. Now you can upload the waypoint either by using your card reader and your SD card or using the ASPC2 connection cable.

Voilá that's it. Hope it helps  ;)

Regards / Harry

Ok, so i did all of the work to pick waypoints off the scan videos and change the icons. the files are on the SD chip. When I plug in the SD chip and turn on the HB, it says there is no new data and the waypoints dont transfer. There is no UPLOAD menu choice anywhere that I can find. What am I missing?
