+drbadskwerl Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Hi all, I have a Garmin 62cx handheld that I use only for Geocaching. I have had an issue with the GPS for years and Garmin wasn't much help so I thought I'd turn to the forums. When I am on the compass screen navigating to a cache that I've uploaded from Geocaching.com and I use the page button to change to the map screen it won't change to the map screen... it just remains on the compass screen. Some more info: - It won't do this if I am navigating to a waypoint I manually entered - If I mark the cache as found it will allow me to navigate to the map page - If I hit the page button and select 'Compass' (even though I am already on the compass page) then hit page and go to 'map' it will change to the map page When I spoke to Garmin they said they didn't know what was wrong and informed me that Garmin doesn't 'officially' support caches from the Geocaching website so they told me they couldn't really help. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment
+PeoriaBill Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Here is something to try: 1. On your compass page, press MENU. Change your dashboard from "Geocaching detail" to Geocaching. 2. On your main menu page change profile from Geocaching to Recreational. (This is useful if you try to navigate to a waypoint and the GPS keeps pointing you towards the nearest cache.) Hope this helps.

+Red90 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 There is no such device as a 62cx. Can you clarify if you have a 60 or a 62 as they are quite different. Quote Link to comment
