I have a Amundsen Navigation system (GEN2 MIB2) on a 2020 Karoq. Has anyone else noticed, a small black chess like symbol on local roads on their maps? It seems to been where there are road names. I've never noticed it before.

 

 

 

I think that’s just where you’d be taken when ‘You have reached your destination’.

Also, this isn’t Google Maps and is the built in version from your SD card.

Hi John999boy.  If I route to a destination, the route is highlighted by a green line showing the route. The chess pawn very tiny markers are still on the map.

I have no idea what they are.

They will be there and my last answer still stands. 

Just a pointer to show which road the name relates to??

Correct

Thank you all for your replies, appreciated.

Thank you all for your replies, appreciated. Just wish I could sort out how to place speed cameras onto map. I load them in, but the camera icons are just blurred. Looks like a 1cmx1cm pixilated square.

I use pocketGPSworld for files, and use POIbase to load onto card.

There's a few threads about that on Briskoda.

Just do a search for pocketgpsworld and they'll pop up.

Thanks John,

 

I've spent weeks searching these forums, and most are 3 to 5 years out of date. You can load them to work with the Columbus system. They don't work with the Amundsen MIB2 system. I have been using pocketGPSworld since 2006, never had a problem.

The problem is getting software to convert the files and icons from PocketGPSworld to work on the Amundsen unit.

Never mind I'll have to use Waze, that works very well. Once again thank you.

Could this thread be of use?

Thank you John, I will look and see if it works. Thanks.

Thank you John999boy.

 

I downloaded from the site, and the speed cameras showed up on my map. It works. Having said that, it says the database was updated 04.06.2020. I have to inform everyone that it's well out of date.

Cameras that have be around for a while, were missing, and cameras that have been removed are still showing.  It's a pity they can't be updated from another source.

I suppose you cannot complain, it being free.
