To use this function with the AERA series you will need to place a micro-SD card in the GPS card slot ( in the battery compartment of the AERA series). To use the export module you must have ProPlan version 5.40 or higher.
Damn, why didn't I spot that.
That did the trick, although I didn't need to put a card in,just plug the unit into the laptop's USB port.
Created my route in Navbox, selected File>Export Existing Route As>GPX
Then saved to Garmin>GPX>Aviation and lo and behold my route was on the GPS.
Thanks, should have worked that out for myself, but appreciate the steer.
I suspect that importing tracks from the GPS and transferring W&CG and other data is pressing my luck, but that's the single biggest thing I wanted to do.
