bdanek Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hi, I just updated my 60Cx to software 3.00 and gps 2.90. Now when I am moving along with the map page showing, the map jumps around by 30-45 degrees every few seconds, as if it's hunting for my location. My track is correct (I can reverse my route and it tracks perfectly along the path I took on the map). It's just the direction jumping around that is annoying. Has this happend to anyone else? Is there a way to roll back the software? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
freeday Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Change the map from "Track up" to "North up" and it will be fine. (Menu - Setup Map - Orientation) Quote Link to comment

(Menu - Setup Map - Orientation) Hi, Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried that and it still does the same thing. It also has the problem on the compass page. The compass is constantly moving. It's as if your looking at a map and someone is turning the map CW and CCW with your position in the middle staying fixed. Quote Link to comment

bdanek Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hi, How do I go about doing a reset? I checked the user manual and there is a referece to a "factory reset" in the startup times, but nothing on how to actually do any kind of reset. Thanks. Quote Link to comment

If the map is jumping around, it sure does sound like the map is set to Track Up. Check that again to make sure it's on North up (i know you already did that, but just in case you missed it, it's worth another look). Quote Link to comment
bdanek Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 When I switch to North up, the jumping does subside, but then the cursor jumps around. It still doesn't help when in the compass mode. I should be able to use the device in any mode I want without this happening, don't you agree? My point of the post is that there seems to be a problem with the new software, at least in my unit. Does your unit do this when in Track up mode with the latest software or is the display nice and steady? Quote Link to comment
8mmag Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 (edited) I'd try reloading 2.90 again and see if that resolves your issues... EDIT: For hard reset instructions see the FAQ Edited December 11, 2006 by 8mmag Quote Link to comment
bdanek Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 Wow! Awesome link. Thank you. This will keep me busy for a while I'll let you know how I make out with the reset and reload. Quote Link to comment
