On your Delorme inReach Explorer, you have two types of track logs: the default 10 min track points that you can share with others using Mapshare and the 1 min detailed track log that you can view on the screen or using the Earthmate app.
But how can you export the detailed track log onto your computer in order to do some work with it? For example you want to make a topo map and add the trail detail, or even submit your track to openstreetmap.
We will look at the simple process of updating the firmware on your Delorme inReach Explorer or SE.
First thing we need to do is to find our USB cable and plug it into our PC or mac. Now open up a web browser and login into your Delorme Portal.
We take a look how your can send 2-way email & mobile text messages with your Delorme inReach Explorer (and SE). Now, you can send messages using your paired smartphone and using the Earthmate app, but for this video we will use the inReach as a stand alone device.
But before we start using our inReach to send a message, we need to first setup a few items in our Delorme portal.
We go over the steps to calibrate the Delorme inReach Explorer electronic compass and altimeter.
The Delorme inReach Explorer contains an electronic compass and barometric altimeter. To calibrate both items, go to the SETTINGS page and scroll down to COMPASS & ALTIMETER
From here you can calibrate the compass & altimeter.
In this video, we’ll show you how to load geocache waypoints on your Delorme inReach Explorer.
Now we can enter manually waypoint information, but we want to load up multiple geocaches into our device. To help us do that, we need to create a GPX file that will contain these multiple geocaches or waypoints.
We will take a quick look at how we can take coordinates from our current location or saved waypoints on our Delorme inReach SE or Explorer.
We will take a look at the new Map page feature found on the Delorme inReach Explorer.
In this video we will look at sharing your current location using the Delorme inReach SE.
In this video we will look at how to pair our Delorme inReach SE with an iPhone or iOS device. First thing is to download the free app Earthmate, this will allow you to download Delorme maps and control the inReach using Bluetooth.
