Updating points

[rockfshr]

I loaded my points from my TZT2 into my TXTXL. I was changing some of my point colors and it seems when you do that the old point is not replaced by the new color point. You have to delete the old point. Am I incorrect? Or missing something?

Hey rockfshr, thanks for reaching out! So, when points are transferred from an external system to another, the Lat/Long position of any point is marked with an event icon. From here you can change the event markings to a Default Point Symbol, whatever it is that you want it to be, as well as the color of the point. I've provided a link for you that will take you directly to the Operations Manual. Section 4 through 4.5 talks about Points and shapes and color, etc. I would go through this section and see if it helps. In the meantime, I'm going to check with our guys to see if they have any further experience with this topic. Thank you!

@rockfshr it is very likely that you have duplicate waypoints. I have seen this before where a customer has merged some sets of points and ended up with the waypoint with the same name, location and everything. They stack right over the other, so you don't notice that you might have 10 points all with the same name on top of each other. I had a NN3D customer once tell me that he changed the point color from RED to Green and it would be green for one second and then turn RED. At least that is the way it appeared. In reality, he would change the color of the top waypoint and since RED is a higher priority color than Green, the unlaying waypoint, which was RED, jumped to the top of the stack. I would Highly recommend reviewing your point list for duplicates because it can cause system problems as well. If you wanted, you could give our tech support a backup of your points and we can run it through MaxSea/Nobeltec program to remove duplicates and send it back to you. They will delete all copies after doing it for you. We have no interest in collecting anyone's points. You can always do it manually as well.

Johnny ,Thank you for your response! I changed allot of colors so I’m going to filter them by distance first to see if i can find them easier. If not i will delete all my points and reload. The units not installed yet so no rush.
Thank you
