Empty waypoint name

Every waypoint that is used in a route must have a unique name. If you created route waypoints by clicking on blank parts of the map, you need to edit these waypoints and give them a name before sending the route to your GPS. To edit waypoints as you create them, type Enter after the new route waypoint has been created.
