  1. Hi Colin.It doesn't matter what (if anything) is in the file, just the presence of it makes Ozi double the resolution.

    In Windows, just right click a inside any folder, and choose New --> Text Document.

     

    Then just rename the file to hires.dat and copy it to the OziExplorerCE folder on your device.

     

    Or grab any existing small file and copy/rename it.

     

    I just did it on the 7" one I'm setting up for turboplanner. I'm now going to take it on a test run to Luskintyre tomorrow, just to make sure it's working properly 025_blush.gif.9304aaf8465a2b6ab5171f41c5565775.gif.

    Hi Ross,

    Thanks for that, it worked OK. Can now read all.

     

     

  2. Hi Ross,

     

    I bring up active sync, the computer and GPS are both now recognised

     

    I go to the folder on computer with All_wpts the copy/ paste to the folder NANDFlash\OziExplorer\Data

     

    When doing this a menu on computer comes up with…….

     

    Microsoft ActiveSync may need to convert files when synchronising between your mobile device and this desktop computer.

     

    Note: A converted file might not contain all information found on original file (click OK)

     

    After doing what you suggested, the only file (waypoint) installed is Adelaide.

     

    But the good news is… I am able to enter waypoints and multiple tracks manually (or) by Create waypoint at position.

     

    Many thanks for all your help

     

     

  3. Hi Ross,

     

    Not sure what i'm doing wrong

     

    Using Active sync

     

    I opened a folder on internal memory of the GPS, called named NANDFlash

     

    Then installed the OziexplorerCE program to that folder.

     

    Then went to \NANDFlash\OziExplorer\Data and copied the files from computer into the data folder.

     

    Opened the GPS, went to waypoint section and selected Import. I selected the file mainWays.wpt then the OK button.

     

    Then selected Allways.wpt then the OK button.

     

    I click on the waypoint name mainways …. Then the list button… it brings up I waypoint called YGLD Goulburn.

     

    I click on the waypoint name All_wpts …. Then the list button… it brings up I waypoint called Adelaide.

     

    I also went to a folder called, storage card, and made a folder called \OziExplorer\Data

     

    Eg \StorageCard\OziExplorer\Data

     

    Opened the GPS, went to waypoint section and selected Import. I selected the file mainWays.wpt then the OK button.

     

    Then selected Allways.wpt then the OK button.

     

    I click on the waypoint name mainways …. Then the list button… it brings up I waypoint called YGLD Goulburn.

     

    I click on the waypoint name All_wpts …. Then the list button… it brings up I waypoint called Adelaide.

     

    I’m really confused, glad I’m not flying in this condition. Ha!

     

     

  4. Welcome aboard Upthere.I have sent 2 waypoint files to your email address (which I have access to as site administrator).

    If any questions come up, post them here.

     

    Cheers,

    Hi Ross, Thanks for emailing the Waypoints. Only one (or 2) problems.

    I have Installed OziexplorerCE and some maps from Maptrax.

     

    Have placed the OziexplorerCE program file on internal memory section

     

    Have made a map folder on the sd card

     

    There is a data fold on both the internal memory section, and SD card.

     

    I have copy/paste the waypoint attachements into both folders, using Active Sync.

     

    the file (All_Wpts.wpt) is shown as 68Kb and will not open on the GPS.

     

    What am I doing Wrong????

     

    PS.. if I open in notepad it show the names and lots of numders.

     

    thanks

     

     

  5. Hi Adrian.I love the HTC phones. I have a Tytn that's probably into it's 3rd year and don't feel the need to change just yet. I use it for internet-in-the-air .

    You would have a few options for getting data in. The easiest is probably via ActiveSync. Your phone would have a cradle or maybe just a USB cable to connect to your PC. When it connects, ActiveSync on your PC (or Mobile Device Centre if Vista) should detect it and create a connection. You can use this to transfer files.

     

    The other way would be to use a Micro SD card. Get a card reader for your PC, stick the card in, copy the data. If you install OziCE to the card, just copy straight to the data directory. Otherwise, copy it to the data directory after you stick the card back in the phone.

     

    As for creating the waypoints, you can create them yourself on the phone, or more easily on the PC using OziExplorer there. Even easier - I can give you my waypoint file. There's a few hundred already done.

     

    Cheers,

    Hi Ross, This is my FIRST tome to use the foruam site. I have taken great interst in your answers to question on 7" GST units.

    I have just purchased one and would be extremly happy if you could send me a copy of your waypoint file.

     

    I'm sure I will have LOTS of questions, as I have puchased and Installed OziexplorerCE and some maps from Maptrax.
