Send gpx route/waypoints to GPS 76 ??

Any suggestions ? - how to send OPENCPN (v 3.2.2) gpx route or waypoints to handheld Garmin GPS 76 (not GPS 76 Map)

Logfile shows:
EnumerateSerialPorts() Found Garmin USB Driver.
Garmin USB GPS could not be initialized
Error Code is -1
LastGarminError is: SetupDiEnumDeviceInterfaces

GPS76 serial data format set to Garmin.
Have tried using Garmin-USB, COM3 & COM5 combinations. BTW – Separately, Garmin Communicator program discovers my GPS 76 as on COM5.

Same laptop thru same cable connection successfully sends Geocache waypoints to same handheld GPS76. (GPS76 cable terminates in RS-232. I have no RS-232 on laptop, so used Sabrent USB 2.0 to serial cable adapter to plug into laptop USB.)

Have tried with Windows 7 provided Garmin USB drivers and drivers downloaded from Garmin.

Thanks !!

Thumbs up Re: Send gpx route/waypoints to GPS 76 ??

SORRY ! I again tried another suggestion to use GPS Utility. I was able to load all waypoints (but not route for some reason). I created the route on GPS 76. So problem resolved....it helped to be able to get my ? and on the table! Sorry again.
