60Csx "Send to GPS" issue

I have the latest Garmin plugin. "Send to GPS" works if there are no caches in the 60Csx. The first one sent works fine, and shows up in the GPS. Subsequent "Send to GPS" says that they are successful, but nothing shows up in the GPS.

It's repeatable. After deleting all caches from the GPS, the first one goes OK. After that, nada.

Any ideas?

Do you have your unit in Garmin mode? It does NOT work in USB mass storage mode.

 

The result:

Found some user confusion going on. Mine.

The Geocaches we were trying to send to the 60Csx were for an upcoming vacation. It happens that they are about 125 miles away. So, when I did a find for Geocaches, the only ones showing up were those within 114 miles or so. At the top of the "Found" page it says "Geocaches Near current Location."

So, what I was looking for didn't appear on this page.

Doh!

Do a search "By Name".

Thanks, Hans.

Here's an expanded version:

 

The normal way to see what Geocaches have been loaded to the GPS, is to go to the FIND menu by pressing the FIND button. This shows different type of things to find, like Waypoints, Geocaches, ctc.

When you highlight Geocache and press enter, it gives you a list of them. At the top of the screen, it will say “Geocache near Current Location.”

In this mode, it only shows Geocaches within about 114 miles of a reference point, usually your current location. You could have dozens of other more distant Geocaches, but they wouldn’t show on the list.

To see all of them, press MENU while on this screen. This brings up a screen with Find by Name, Show Found Cache, Change Reference, Delete, and Geocache Setup.

Highlight Find by Name and press ENTER, then QUIT. At the top of the screen it will now say Geocache List. All Geocaches will be shown.

To go back to showing nearest, press MENU and highlight Find Nearest and press ENTER. Now it will again show the Geocaches within 114 miles.
