|
|
When I plan a route and then run the Demo of the route on my 920T it always suddenly stops running and reverts back to the live position display after about 1/3 of the route, its always done this, its never once made it to the end, is this normal? surely not. |

This is normal, there is a limit to the actual length of any demo, the demo mode was probably introduced to show the units off in the shop rather than watch an entire trip.
You could break the trip into smaller sections using the AtoB Advanced Planning/ Prepare Route option and watch each one in turn - I would just drive the trip though TBH - Mike |

I think it's a time limit rather than a distance one, but it WILL certainly complete a short demo route - I do that all the time to test camera positions or Mapshare corrections.
As Mike says, it was only ever put in as a gimmick or marketing aid. |

I believe it is distance limited .... either 50k or 50miles, I forget which. |
