Re: On-screen Movement Indication

Re: On-screen Movement Indication

Many thanks for the info Michael. I've had the unit for years but only use it occasionally so it's probably working as per specs but following the rebuild I am most likely overthinking it.

Re: Zumo 550 Cloning and Map Issues

To be honest, while I am more than happy to have the full Europe map on the Zumo I would like to find out why the unit shuts down when gmapprom on the device Is left unchanged. It could be as simple as the supp map being larger than the original.

Zumo 550 Cloning and Map Issues

I know that cloning has been covered in some of the threads previously but I am hoping you might be able to help/explain some issues I've experienced during the process.
