New 700i - fault at end of route

Unread post by Triplog »

Just taken delivery of a new unit. Everything is a default. Creating a route on the unit is fine but when I transfer a route from Basecamp it appears to create to route but at the destination the magenta line shots off into the distance (see attachment). It won't give an Eta or Dist to Dest and the line goes completely off the map area. Can anyone help please?
Software vers 15.2
GPS software vers 2.9
Thank you

This Route was created in BaseCamp and sent to the Montana, correct?

Yes that's correct. Just to update you, I've tried another route with a different destination and it appears to work fine. (I'm trying to get back up to speed from my, ropey and unreliable, 680 escapade a few years ago before i need to use the unit in anger!)
