Title: Latest map version: 7.0 or 7.2?
Post by: Radek on 05 October 2011, 15:03
Does anyone know what's the latest official map for RNS510? I got V7 Western Europe but apparently there is V7.2 - with speed camera locations...

He's picked up a 7.2 but doesn't mention speed cameras. Some of the techy guys like SteveP or Morty will probably have the latest maps and software so would know what the latest versions are.
I've got the v7 map with cameras and that'll do for me.

Was thinking of upgrading from V6 to V7.

Can I ask, will buying V7 automatically include the 7 digit postcode input or does the firmware need to be updated also?

Found this online for V7.2.

Is this a good deal or is there somewhere that it may be bought cheaper?

My pal has the older operating system in his nav so it won't allow the full postcodes even with the V7 maps - how does he update this software please anyone?

For a genuine map with cams that looks like a very good price. There will be rips around for much less money but at least with a genuine disc you know what you're getting.

He needs software of 2760 or higher to run the V7 maps. No idea what the software needed to run the V7.2 maps will be though, I've lost track of it as it is so fast moving these days!
Firmware is usually available to download on VW Navi, or if like me your DVD burner is kaputt then you need a friendly forum member to loan you a disc  :smug:

Does anyone know if the V7.2 speed cameras are shown as another small POI symbol, or does a larger symbol 'pop up' etc when nearing one? Maybe there's an audible warning too - similar to the one for 'Traffic Problems Ahead.'
