Thank you for helping, here is my version no

Hmm I hope that isn't an option they've taken away! Especially as I was planning on downloading and updating mine soon as quite a few roads are missing /wrong now.

What is the firmware version for your Amundsen?

 

Mine displays speed limits and has the menu option to turn on/off. System information is:

 

Device 5E0035874A

Hardware version: 040

Firmware version: 0435

 

I'm using the latest maps database too.

My device and hardware is the same, but software (firmware) 0465

Interesting. You seem to have a newer firmware version but an earlier car. Mines June 2014.

There's a possibility mines been updated by the dealership, but not the maps. Mines a September 2013.

My codes are much earlier, so may explain why I don't have some features

Maybe a dealer software update will solve this then (hopefully).

I checked the update site with my VIN and no software updates available. As you say,probably needs a visit to the dealer, which I'll get around to sometime.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

 

My car is a Vrs with Columbus and MY15. when I go to set up and update POI, it doesn't see the Db3 file and seems to be looking for Vcards ?

 

Any ideas ?

 

Thanks

 

Steve.

I'm sure, thats same as mine. But no speed CAMERAS alerts, big difference.

 

I think you are mistaking with traffic signs tickbox. If not please send your speed cameras tickbox screenshot.

You're having a giraffe. I sold the Octy 7 months ago!

Well done, yet still find time to reply in the Octy forum - now that's what I call commitment

[vRSAnt]

Maybe wait for the Russian hackers !

 

After all, I have a 10 year old Pioneer and recently looking even that seems apparently capable of things the Amundsen isn't ( like 3g connecton ! ODBII clearing MIL lights etc supposedly)

 

Plus support for multiple map providers and of course hacking your own maps on !

I used this to load cameras on to my Nav Pro so it works, only get a quiet BONG when approaching a camera which is easily missed but the cameras are shown

That's on an Amundsen II, does the same thing work on the original Amundsen?

[vRSAnt]

Apparenty defintely not, but after a bit of searching this might:

Reading this thread after trying to find out whether or not anything other than the speed limit is displayed under 'Traffic signs' in the U.K. - it sounds like it's a 'no'!

re Speed cameras, I understand why warnings about these might be useful but considering that there are so many mobile speed camera vans in multiple possible locations, perhaps it's not that useful after all?
