Support Thread for the TND 500, TND 700 or future Rand McNally products. (part two)

Tail of the Dragon 318 curves in 11 miles great time on bike TN has signs in place as of January https://news.tn.gov/node/13281

 

Incorrect truck speed limit on i40 in TN from the NC border to ~440. I think RM says 50mph, which was the NC truck speed limit, but TN just shows 55 for everyone.

 

Seems at least every other update screws up a bunch of Speed Limits.

Speed limit I80 Utah, when it drops to 55 in the Curves (Westbound from Wyoming).
It does not go back up around MM148. And doesn't change again until MM99 when it goes to 80mph.

 

Speed limit doesnt change back anywhere after going thru a truck reduced speed limit zone...just have to reboot to go back to correct speed limit....

i am sure they are aware of this bug and will fix it....

for all those griping about bugs in the update..you obviously have never used a computer or android device because they are constantly sending out updates to fix bugs that come up...

 

yea it shows 35MPH lol so my gps trys to take me us highways lol

 

I just completed the maps update. What about the software update, should I wait for the next release? I show I am running v4.31.3322.0040
thanks

 

Make sure you do the regular update to get the additional files needed for that mapset.

Thanks
Mark

 

Ok, Mark, done.

New maps, I checked for the inclusion of a major toll road that was missing last week, Houston's I-99 Grand Parkway between 290 and I-10 on Houston's west side. https://goo.gl/maps/2JKVW

Why is that hwy still MIA? thx

 

It did this on the prior version, but I never mentioned it: when I first boot the tnd & resume a prior trip, it does not display the current city or crossroads or milemarker. Not a big deal, but mildly annoying when trying to remember what town I need to flag for my logbook...

Mine does not seem to do this, at least not always. Sometimes the speed limit sign will stay orange after leaving a truck zone, but it'll usually show the correct speed.

Unless maybe you're talking about when crossing state lines? Because I've noticed it hang onto the prior speed limit twice now, but both times were after crossing into a new state (i40 NC to TN and i65? from KY to IN)

 

Hey Mark. Any idea if there's a quick and easy fix for a 720 that freezes up every time I set a destination? It just locks up. Tried the reset button. That un freezes it, but when I go to set a destination again, it locks up.
