    EZ Moto Tim, I have to say this is such a helpful series! I've been a nitwit for the past few years because I essentially had all of the tools around me, but never took the time to search for training videos on BaseCamp. Despite being quite technical, I was just plain stymied by the BC interface since it behaves so different from every other GPS/routing platform I've touched. I was determined to get better at creating adventure routes for riding my 1200GS. This series is telling me everything I need to know in a very learnable sequence to use BC! Thank you so much.

    Hey Tim, I enjoy your videos on Garmin BaseCamp, you breakdown the steps into easy to understand modules. There are many tutorials on TH-cam regarding BaseCamp however, yours is the easiest to understand.
    It would be helpful to number the BaseCamp series from lesson 1 to the last episode in the series (1,2,3,4, etc.). I watched the first few videos and then don't know which video I should view next in your series. Plus your BaseCamp videos are mixed together with your other videos. Thanks

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. I used to number the videos, but then I added new ones and rearranged the order. Updating the descriptions and thumbnails was a pain. There is a playlist on the channel, but the easiest way to access the videos in order is to go to my website, ezmototim.com/basecamptutorials/ It's also easy to go back and pick the ones you want to watch again. Thanks for watching.

    EZ Moto Tim, this series has been incredibly helpful as I've been amazed (and frequently frustrated) with how unintuitive the Basecamp software is. This video on creating routes was very helpful but I'm now trying to understand why I can't load all of the routes to my Garmin device. I've started putting them in Trips but not sure if that the correct was to do it. A video on how the difference between Routes and Trips would be great.

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  ปีที่แล้ว

      Here's how it works on the Zumo XT - Routes in BaseCamp are placed on the GPS storage. You import the Routes from the storage into Trips. Then you can find the Routes in Saved Trips. HTH. Thanks for watching.

    Tim, thank you so much for the work you have put into this series. It has been incredibly helpful, and you put out a great instructional product. Not sure if you are willing to answer a question, but I am trying to figure out how to deal with route planning when BaseCamp thinks there is no road where I know there is a road, and it forces a difficult route out and around where I am trying to go. Thanks again! Al from Seattle

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  ปีที่แล้ว

      Try this procedure to create a direct segment within your route. (It may require a little experimentation.) Put a waypoint at each end of the gap and insert them into your route in the proper sequence. In the route details box, R-Click the first waypoint, Edit Via Point - change the profile for the point to Direct. Recalculate. That should give you a straight line across the gap. Thanks for watching.

    I just bought Montana 700i last week and it took me almost three days to find your useful videos. So disappointed that You tube did not put your videos at the top. I have finished Basecamp creating routes -part 3. I will continue to watch all of your videos in the next few weeks. You are definitely a great teacher and showing us slowly and step as step. Very thankful teacher, I will buy you coffee after finishing all the videos. Question: I mostly do canoe trips, which activities should I pick? Can you explain your understanding regarding the different activities between off road and direct on basemap . Thank you.

    • @EZMotoTim

  • @michaelwasielewski5042
    @michaelwasielewski5042 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Beginning at 7:27, EZ Moto Tim cautions his students not to left click with the mouse to move the map once the draw route pencil tool is activated, because doing so will create via points instead of moving the map. Instead, he instructs his listeners to use the arrow keys to move the map and the mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out.
    While this is certainly true, I find an easier way to navigate the map while the create route pencil tool is activated is to use the map overview window. If the map overview window is activated prior to activating the route create tool, simply moving the mouse into the map overview window will change the cursor into the hand icon automatically and will allow the active map to be repositioned on the screen. Sliding the mouse back over the active map window will change the cursor back into the route create pencil icon without interruption. The overview map window can be sized and positioned anywhere that is most convenient.
    As far as I can tell, this is the only useful function of the overview map, but I do not see a reference to its use in this manner in the Garmin documentation or any other guides to using Basecamp software.

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  ปีที่แล้ว

      Correct. Look for a series of BaseCamp videos where I explain the use of each toolbar icon, including the Toggle Overview Map feature.

    I don´t know what Im doing wrong, because when I select "driving" as an "activity" the route doesn´t follow the roads...even with the tarcksource map selected...when I change the profile to "motorcycle", the route follow the roads!

      @@EZMotoTim It is a selection under the preferences menu under controls/keyboard. Preferences on the Mac version looks to be similar to Options on the PC, but it has 7 submenus one of which is controls. On the downside, the Mac version of Trip Planner doesn't automatically copy a hotel that ends one day to the start of the next day. I have to copy and paste each time which is a nuisance. I am still amazed that the Mac and Windows versions are so different and seem to not share a common code base.

  • @seanfrench1029
    @seanfrench1029 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great tutorial. I do lotsa offroad and tar routes mixed up on my adventure bike. Is it best to compile the route and then convert to track afterwards? Also, after creating a route, the majenta line doesn't always match up with the actual route/road/track on the map. Will this be a problem once downloaded on GPS and starting on the route or track?

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I haven't done a video on this yet, but you can designate the activity profile for each segment of a route. That is, you can have a route with several waypoints with the motorcycle profile, then the next segment (offroad) to the next waypoint can have a direct profile. Follow that with segments that have the motorcycle profile. Thanks for watching.

    One one of your Base Camp instructional video you showed us how to create different data bases to better organize. Do you know how to transfer data that I have saved from my default data base to a new data base I have created. My default one is so cluttered so I want to do this to better organize.

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. Use the export feature to export what you want to keep to a gpx file. Switch to your new database and import the gpx file. You will probably have to create several gpx files to select just the parts you want to keep. You can export whole lists or just the routes and waypoints within the list you want to keep. Thanks for watching.

  • @LTVoyager
    @LTVoyager 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would argue there is a 5th way to create a route and that is using the Trip Planner. Put waypoints into each day of the trip and a route will be created.

      There are other channels with videos on how to use your GPS. Waypoints can be transferred to your GPS where they can be accessed under "Favorites." Continue watching this series of videos in order. Part 11 is about the Trip Planner, which may help you enter rest stops. Thanks for watching.

    Great videos! Improved from before quite a bit. Thanks!
    One thing that has always annoyed me - you can't set up "mini" routes and connect them together in a trip plan.
    Example - I have a route set up for Willow City Loop that goes the way I like to ride it and stops where I know there's a photogenic site.
    It would be nice if say I had a route to go to Luckenbach to link it up to the Willow City Loop for a new route that joins the two.
    If you've found a way to do it I'm all ears!

      @@EZMotoTim yes. Sorry I wasn't clear. I've been less than pleased with how it does it on occasion.
      I confess it may have something to do with how I made the route. I need to revisit the routes I made BMTT (Before Moto Tim Tutorials). I've learned a lot - including how routes sometimes get points mixed up.
      BTW - have you considered making Zumo reference videos? You seem to be thoroughly familiar with them and there are tricky things that I still haven't figured out concerning POIs and uploaded maps.
      Questions are like "where do I put the maps?", "How to switch to a map", "Where to load the POIs, make them show up and how to search for them". I loaded a database of Quik Stop stations that carry ethanol free and danged if I can get them to show up. An alert would be nice as well!

      I'm afraid I can't answer that question for certain. It looks like it has a USB port, so you could connect it to your computer and possibly load routes . That would be a good question for Garmin. (In the next few months I'm going to work with a Zumo XT, BaseCamp, and Garmin Explore to see how they fit together. The Overlander appears to be similar to the XT.)

    Hello Tim, I am enjoying your tutourials and am getting more comfortable with it every day thanks to these tutourials. 1 question, and I may have missed it in the videos. I have a multiday trip that I am planning and 1/2 way thru one of the days I want to cross a river using a ferry. Basecamp does not recognize crossing the river and keeps sending me back down the river to cross on a bridge way down river. I have tried to split the route but it keeps doing the same thing. Can I start a new route on the same day? Or what is best to achieve a solution? Also departing the accom on this day the route goes in a direct line to the final destination, I click and drag to the roads I want to use, so no problem there......

    Not sure what I am doing wrong. I created a simple route with 4 waypoints in Google my maps. I was able to import it into Basecamp seamlessly. When I ‘send it to device’, nothing is available in the GPS. Very frustrating. I ended up manually creating it in the Garmin 595LM but it was cumbersome to do so.
    I will try again. It must be something I am doing wrong but this was a good tutorial. Thank you

    When I planned my route to the destination and saved it to my Zumo XT, I wanted to come home the same way but when I inverted it in base camps and saved it, it changed the original route also and so I could not use it. I had to go in and make the same route home and save it under a new name?? Inverting a route would be great but when you save it , it then changes the original route the same way. what am I doing wrong?

      If you are creating a another route in a list that has your Home waypoint, create your destination waypoint, then highlight the 2 waypoints and R-Click Create route... If you want to use your Home waypoint in a different list, copy your home waypoint in one list and paste it to another list. Thanks for watching.

    Hello Tim, Watched a bunch of your videos on Garmin BaseCamp and already have an issue. Once I finish entering two addresses and click on GO for BaseCamp to calculate route it actually stops midway and never completes the calculation.. Have you seen this before? I actually captured a screen shot of what's happenning but not sure how to forward to you... Thanks much!

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, I haven't seen this before. Check that you have selected the map for your region, not the Global Map as it isn't routable. Then try all the usual things. Reboot your computer, reinstall BaseCamp. Try it on another computer, etc. Perhaps there is a gap in the map or you have an avoidance turned on that you don't want. Thanks for watching.

      When you copy and paste an item (route or waypoint) from one list to another, the two items point to the same record in the database, so changes made in either list show up in the other. What you want to do is duplicate the route then cut and paste it to the second list. When you edit the duplicate your will not be editing the original. Thanks for watching.

      I've never heard of an OSM map being pre-loaded. It's possible that map is not routable. The other possibility is that the activity profile for the route is set to "Direct." Thanks for watching.

    I have a Garmin Tread. I can create the routes in BaseCamp and they are as I want them no problem. But then I copy them to the Garmin and then select the route, it "calculates" the route and every time it modifies what I create in BaseCamp. No matter what settings I seem to try, it gets modified. Do you know of a way to make the Garmin respect the route that I created exactly as I did in BaseCamp? Thanks.

    For Ireland and Northern Ireland which is UK and a National Border, the roads marked are limited. This makes the methods or routing in Part 3 not really workable. With only shortest and direct routes offered Basecamp is showing limitations for flexible route planning. USA might well be more detailed. Maybe in later parts routing by waypoint selection might be easier and more effective.

    • @EZMotoTim
      @EZMotoTim  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's good to know. I don't have any experience with maps outside North America. There seems to no constraints in routing across the US/Canada border. Perhaps you'll be able to adapt the concepts for what works in your area. Thanks for watching.
