Since the Communicator is not very compatible
with the Triton, there is a mod for the software available. This one will correct the
wrong waypoint-flags for the Triton. The link is here:

The short how2 is:
- Download
- rename the TritonComm.dll in the Communicator-Folder to TritonCommMgn.dll
- copy the downloaded TritonComm.dll to that Folder
- enjoy the now functionating Communicator - feature for the Triton.
Thanks to Pico2220 for this great peace of software.
Now you have different icons on your Triton for Parking site, QTA, SOAM...
The development seems to continue.

geocaching.com.
The following extentions are made:
- Waypoints get the symbol "Crossed Square".
- Umlaute will be converted in a Triton-compatible way.
- Description is cleaned from HTML.
- Shortdescription is supplemented by container size.
Further changes in version 0.4:
- Only the following cache typs were transfered:
Earthcache, Multi-cache, Traditional Cache, Unknown Cache, Event Cache, Letterbox Hybrid,
Virtual Cache, Mega-Event Cache.
All the other types will be transfered as "Unknown Cache"
- Names of waypoints are extended by the name of the corresponding cache.
- Waypoints will be displayed as following symbols:
Parking Area => Truck Service
Trailhead => Nav Aid
Reference Point => Box
Stages of a Multicache => Golf
Question to Answer => Tourist Info
every other type => Crossed Square
Requirements:
"Magellan Communicator" must be installed.
Installation:
Step 1:
Close your browser to prevent "TritonComm.dll" from being in use.
Step 2:
