    These questions have probably been answered in the TND 500 thread but there are so many pages, I dont I have time to read. I have to questions regarding this GPS.

    1. Does the main navigation display show your current heading or have a compass rose to show what direction you are heading?

    2. Lets say Im going from Phoenix Arizona to an address in Topeka Kansas. I put in destination address and GPS plans route to get to destination. My question is this. Is there a way to change the route so that it will go the route my company wants me to take? Because sometimes I get a route from dispatch that is diffrent from the route my current GPS plans for me.

    Thanks for the help.. :)

    Most of the time you can add a waypoint that will correspond to the companies directions. That is what I do with my PC Miler 430 when I want to go a certain way and it refuses to let me and wants to continually route me some other way.

    As for the direction I have no idea.

    I have asked this be moved over to the support thread... but I am going to answer..

    Yes their is a small area on the map screen that shows the direction heading.

    Via points are insertable, but you can always put the via points in and also set recalculations to manual.

    Thanks,
    Mark
