Importing a track GPX file
GPX files (GPS exchange format)
GPX files contain a very detailed recording of a route, including any off-road locations. A GPX file
might contain, for example, a tourist route or a preferred fixed route. You can find collections of
.GPX files on the internet and upload them to My Routes using TomTom MyDrive in a web browser.
GPX files become tracks after import.
Tracks have a beginning and an end but no stops, and there's a fixed map-dependent route between
these points. Your device follows this fixed route as closely as possible. You can edit tracks using
MyDrive.
Using GPX files
You use MyDrive on your computer to import .GPX track files to your TomTom device. The tracks are
saved in the My Routes menu. Your device will navigate along the GPX track exactly and will not
offer to replan your route, even if a faster route is available.
Importing a track GPX file
Note: Your TomTom Rider needs at least 400 MB free space before it can import .OV2 and .GPX
files. If you see the message You need more space, make space available by deleting unwanted
.OV2 or .GPX files using MyDrive or deleting device content, for example delete a map you don't
use.
To import a .GPX file using MyDrive, do the following:
1. Connect your TomTom Rider to your computer using MyDrive Connect.
2. In MyDrive, select My Routes.
3. Select Import a GPX File and browse to your .GPX track file.
Tip: The name of the track file in My Routes will be the same as the name of the .GPX file.
Edit the name of the file so that you can easily recognize it in My Routes.
Your new track is shown in the My Routes list.
4. Select the route and then make sure that Sync this route as a track with my devices is
enabled.
5. Wait for the track file to upload to your TomTom Rider.
6. Open My Routes.
Your imported track is shown in your My Routes list.
Deleting a track GPX file
You can only delete an uploaded track GPX file when your TomTom Rider is connected to your
computer using MyDrive Connect.
To delete a POI list, do the following:
1. Connect your TomTom Rider to your computer using MyDrive Connect.
2. In TomTom MyDrive select My Routes.
3. Select the track file you want to delete, then select Delete.
The track is removed from your My Routes list.
