Navman 720 - Fix for Time Zone Bug

Found out while on my trip to Cairns that the Navman 720 has a faulty time zone file and that you will need to get it updated from Navman.

When you cross the border to Queensland the time reverts back to the default time when you first start the device when new or you reset the device.

Good observation Tony.
Would be great if you can provide link as Navman web site is not user friendly at all.

Sorry, Navman doen't has a link to fix this problem. Had to take the unit in to get the updated time zone file installed.

I will give them top marks for installing this file. Only took a few minutes and so far it seems to work.

Wish that Navman would provide a link for the update.

Regards

Tony :D

time zone fix

Well, things do get complicated from here...
I found the information on how to update the time zone problem on the navman site...I also discovered' where that file is located on my 720...BUT, their "link" to that time zone file only brngs up data inside an excel spreadsheet, I expected to get a csv file, but all i got was a page of data....so, very UNhelpful navman !!!!!

if anyone has the actual file, I would love to get a copy of it
