Hi all

I'm having trouble in that my skydemon software is not recognising my new 796 so i cannot upload routes etc. Connecting via USB and selecting Garmin device in connectivity, but just says no device found on usb and garmin screen locks in charging mode. Any ideas?

Thanks Tim I will be in touch after the 25th.

In the meantime I have a quick work round.

First update the firmware in the Garmin using webupdaterfrom Garmin, then leaving the GPS connected to the computer run Skydemon andgenerate your route when you have finished the route goto the FILE menu and ‘SAVEAS’ change the file type to “GPX” thenin the left hand pane select “COMPUTER” and navigate to the drive that is theGarmin, select the “GPX” folder and after naming the route hit “SAVE”.

Unplug the GPS and you should find your route in Flightplans.
