Garmin ZUMO 390LM

While I don't believe waypoints created in basecamp for a route are counted against the device limit, I think there may be a limit on the number of waypoints (routing points etc) within a route. I have not yet run into this limit (I think it's something like 100 points), but one way around this limit I've seen on some of the discussion forums was to convert the route into a track and then use that.

The obvious issue with a track is that you won't get voice prompts but it would be better than having to stop and switch routes if you could see the screen.

It was a problem with my Zumo 500 - would not accept a route with over a certain number of waypoints (and I can't off the top of my head remember what number it was).

The other problem I found was having two different maps - the one in basecamp being a different version to the one in the Zumo.

Split routes into legs if length is an issue. Only time I struggled with a 660 was a route with an ETA of more than 24 hours.

So you were routing for too long?
