BMW Navigator V and Basecamp
 

Dear All

I have just joined Horizons Unlimited for some help and advice for a tour of Europe I am undertaking in June this year. One of the questions I need answering is regarding Garmin Basecamp routes and using these on a BMW Navigator V. I know how to create routes and transfer them to my Navigator, when I switch on the unit and import my track and choose the track I created, it asks me to select the next destination. I was experimenting yesterday on local roads and when I chose the final destination it bypassed the route I had created on Basecamp and took me straight to the destination and not via my planned route. What are all the next destination options for and how do I get my Navigator to actually follow the route I planned rather than take me straight to my final destination? I have spent many hours with maps and Basecamp to design my twisty road route in Europe and I am worried that when I get off the ferry and choose the final destination for that day it will take me straight there and not via my planned route?? Do you have to tell the unit to follow the route you have just imported rather than it make its mind up for you? I couldn't find the answer I was looking for in the online manual or in the Basecamp videos.
Many thanks
Ray

Know your felling well. Basecamp I found would randomly change routes. It free software so it has lots of bugs
