Suppport Thread for the TND 500, TND 700 or future Rand McNally products.

When I get home I will hunt for the receipt.

 

Mark, the way I understand it is that it's based on the 14 hour clock.

 

I'm talking about the 30min break.

 

The way I read the Reg, it's tied to the 14hr clock, not lines 3 & 4. Also, take your break after 6 hr. Then, if you do use the full 14 you won't have to take another break.

 

Just took my first trip with new software and maps from Grand Forks BC to Oceanside CA and am not impressed. My route goes through a lot of small towns in WA OR ID NV CA and none of the speed limits that have been wrong for at least 2yrs have been updated which means the speed warning audio announcement constantly comes on,very annoying so I end up muting the unit, to me this is unacceptable. Verbal speed warning still linked to car speed limits,new function "user defined speed limit" useless as you get no verbal warning if you exceed it,still just turns ball red which I can't see while wearing sunglasses and what professional driver watches his gps constantly,we need verbal warnings so we can concentrate on driving a 75 ft vehicle safely.
Would it be so hard to hook the verball warning to the ball turning red? Maybe RM should make a Truck GPS and get the car stuff off of it as making it functional for both doesn't work. I am glad to be able to turn off the curve ahead warning and that US 395 CA is now updated to show truck speed limit even though u don't get a verbal warning if u exceed it.
To me the most important function of a gps is its verbal communication and should be geared to trucks only,leave the car stuff to the other guys.
If someone comes out with a truck only gps I will certainly buy one no matter who makes it.

 

There is also a change for the Speed Warning...
Can set it to warn at a certain speed regardless of speed limit.
