This functionality is available from the "Nav" menu, under "Waypoints, Routes, Tracks":

Move the cursor up to the "Options" item, press the right arrow buton and from there, you can:

"Select All and..." Export (to MMC/SD card)

Yep, that was a change with the last software update (well, the one before that on some units...).

I got the data exported from the 597 onto an SD card. Then I fired up the 998 and inserted the card and it gave me a notice that the installation was successfully completed, but when I rebooted the unit, there was no waypoints on my lake.. Any ideas?

Thanks

Post by: reddog on June 18, 2012, 11:07:45 PM: I tried that, and couldnt find any waypoints, or groups. its odd. its not that big of a deal for the guy that owns the unit, because I think he only had 6 waypoints in his 597. lol.. It still bugs me though when stuff like this happens,

Post by: Humminbird_Greg on June 19, 2012, 10:12:17 AM: Rollie,
Unless you loaded the waypoints when the unit was running in the default Simulator mode they should be in there somewhere. ???

Post by: reddog on June 20, 2012, 01:01:19 AM: Greg, The unit was on the boat at the time I loaded it with transducer and gps connected.. The 597 was on temporary power, and wasnt hooked up to transducer or gps though..

i did export my waypoints and trails from my 997 and was able to upload them into the 998, so I think if theres a problem, it may be on the 597s side, but its Ok, because that units going away..

I'm not going to send in the 998. After playing around with it some more,(I think I explained it to you in a PM) I am able to zoom in and out readily now. The zoom in button requires a little bit harder push than it should, but its been getting better with usage..
