[dazz600]

Can the radio be used in the background, might do this on a long run next week

[Rustynuts]

Radio can be used, but navigation is disabled while updating.

Hi there,

Does anyone know how to backup the destination's to an SD card? I'm changing my car and have about a hundred destination's In my Sat nav and I'd also like to backup the resent destination's as I went on a two thousand miles Trip across Europe and as it keeps track of your trips I'd love to be able to re run it on a map.

Any help desperately needed as I've been told that my new car is going to be ready before I expected....

Hi just got a black edition - I have one that looks like the earlier picture - How do I find out the version of map i'm on?

And whats stopping us posting the sd card to each other and "sharing" one purchase? or making an image that is shared via the sites file storage?

[mig15]

I was told that the card is unique to your vehicle once you have started the update in your satnav

It locks itself to your car. 

 

Go to sav then hold down set up for 5 seconds then go to versions and it will tell you.

Thats suggests that if i clone the SD card before I use it, I could give it to you and it will work in both our cars?

[mig15]

You may be right but it must be protected in some way or people would of done that ages ago

Nope, not possible. The sd card is tied to being used only in Amundsen Plus units, and the data which controls this is not accessible to normal machines, either Windows, Mac, Linux or otherwise. Once used in any Amundsen Plus unit it becomes locked to that unit alone.

 

There are ways of cloning an sd card, but it's way more complicated than just copying the data.

The best tool I know of for copying SD cards is HDD-Raw-Copy-Tool.  However, I know that some SD data/update cards have a corrupted area at a random position that is then noted in the valid data area.  Copying these cards will not work.

Wow. mine is a V5 map, so well worth the update. Lots about on ebay, one on amazon for £74. Just need to make sure I get the right one I guess? My manual says its an amuzen + but its the 6 button one like

So I need a N135 card?

 

Also the citigo nav would show your GPS speed in MPH, this one doesnt? or will a new map include any new features like my speed? very handy in average speed camera zones

*How to define which unit is fitted in the car  RNS310 or  RNS315: 

 

Press SETUP and hold about 10 sec. On screen choice "Versions"

 

RNS 310 have only 3 information lines : 

 

    1    Part number

    2    Software versions 

    3    System hardware versions

 

RNS 315 have 5 information lines:

 

    1    Part number

    2    Software versions

    3    System hardware versions 

    4    Navigation data: part number 

    5    Navigation data: version

Just putting that there which may be of use to someone...

This guy will give 25% off your next purchase if you have bought from him before and return the sd card.  Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152386293741

[stooz]

thanks - still cant decide on a rns315 or rns310, there are lots saying the SDcard is not compatible.  Ive google images the 310 and it looks the same.. how do I tell??!

[mig15]

If you do a check on your satnav the way it tells you in your earlier post 3 lines of text is the RNS310 and 5 lines of text is the RNS315 

[stooz]

So I bought a RN315 from the guy an ashby dele zouche - and it didn't work. I get SD CARD ERROR. :(

[mig15]

Have you contacted the seller?

I jumped from 4 to 9

The only thing now is,sometimes when putting a postcode in not all the postcode letters light up on the keyboard

Even when I know the postcode exists.   :(

[mig15]
