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

Yes in the upper right click the time bix and your presented with a menu of arrival time, yard time, time remaining, elevation etc. or you can click the green/black speed circle below the speed limit box on the left and the dashboard will pop up and it should be in that screen as well.

 

In Nashville 840 is not on the gps. It's a loop runs east and west to bypass Nashville. Speed limit 70mph

 

Cool. Is there a way to show elevation without losing distance remaining? I think elevation is useful and would be even more useful if it listed current elevation and the elevation 1/3-1/2 mile in front of you -- but I dream.


GIS note of the day: heading NE on us24 adding as via the TA in Napoleon, OH -- it wants to go to the exit past and loop back. The routing is correct to the petro at the same exit (but opposite side of highway)

 

Not using the corner box there isn't. Only way to get both is to use the dashboard.

I've been using my GPS for almost 5 years and I haven't used the dashboard once. I just don't see the usefulness if it. It takes away the main use if the gps which is the map and roads. Maybe I'm missing a useful feature in the screen but I've tried it a couple times and just don't like it. Does anyone use it? If so maybe explain to me what exactly you like about it so I can try it.

 

I dont find the dashboard very useful either. Maybe if you were on a regular route and didnt need turn by turn directions?

Nevermind -- I think this is just part of that old/new us 24 and will probably fix itself in the next update...



GIS note of the day: The flying J just outside Montreal (20-ish miles west) no longer exists. There are concrete pillars with the flying j logo -- but the place has been razed and is roped off...

 

My TND 720 is inoperable after an update. Is their anything I can do to fix it. It just stays in the loading screen and it dings and displays and error message saying it must restart.

 

I was on wifi. We uninstalled the dock and now it won't install again. Goes about 20 min and days connection failed.

 

Is their anything else I can try? I'm not very trust worthy of letting someone I don't know into my computer by remote. I was trying to figure how to do a complete restore on the GPS. Is their such thing as that?
