Recent trip made hard !
-
Hi All,
First trip planned on MRA (which I love for planning) to Spain and the length of Portugal.
First experience with MRA, exporting into Tread in the suggested 1.1 manner.
What I discovered......
Shaping points did not move across accurately. Meaning that planned roads to ride, The N2, were missed in places causing all kinds of confusion in the group and frustrations. In total over 9 days a few hours of riding was lost.
Exported gpx files, somehow, we're different across different XT2 devices, besides a few hours of comparing settings in apps and on devices to confirm consistency of the settings.
I understand that some of these issues will be a Tread issue and am not placing full blame on MRA, however I am no a happy person with the MRA set up for GPX accuracy to export to Garmin XT2. The sole purpose of the purchase was the advertised accuracy of the GPX to export to the Garmin XT2 and this was simply not good enough.
If there is a glaring fix please let me know and I will hold my hands up to being an idiot.
I have tried everything I can see in the forums including exporting direct to memory card, correct settings etc etc.
Please advise .....
I currently feel I have purchased an expensive piece of software that is useless to me.
I am however hoping it is just user error on my part .

Have a look on this thread on the Zumo forums regarding tread and how it changes routes/waypoint positions.
https://zumouserforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=3007
Most users seem to have disconnected their Zumo's from tread. I have an XT and have disconnected it from explore as its a poor piece of software. Hence why i'm here and use MRA for route planning and navigation these days.

This post is 2024 and base camp is unsupported now. I feel this is irrelevant tbh as the whole point of buying MRA was to have it export to Tread seamlessly......
Some of the waypoints in MRA moved to Tread 500m away from the road I wanted to take. Not particularly accurate co-ordinates it seems ...... feel at a loss at the minute. Hopefully someone at MRA will address the software.

Your Zumo is the problem. Not MRA.
The most simple solution is to buy an AA/ACP screen and use it in combination with MRA -

@Evzie delete Tread and use the 1.2 export.
