Hi,

 

I downloaded several offline maps ( Portugal&Spain, France, Belgium Germany ) without any error during the download process. But only Portugal&Spain are visible. All other countries are not displayed. After one day even Portugal&Spain vanished. After rebooting the device (Carpe-Iter V4b) Portugal&Spain are displayed again, all other still remain vanished.

 

Any advice?

Thomas

In the current DMD2 version the app will try to load only maps for the country where you are at the moment.
This can be changed, in the same screen where you download maps, after you download any map, there is a “Always Load” button right next to the download button.
If you enable the “Always Load” it will, as the name indicates, always load that map.

If even after this a map is missing then you need to delete it and download again as it is probably corrupted.

For the next big DMD2 we changed this. EVERYTHING about the map layers is configurable so you will need to enable / disable EVERYTHING you want on the map, this goes for the offline map source, online maps or any other layer.

Thanks a lot for this information. That helps. By the way: is there a manual where you can read things like that?

btw.: what is the reason for choosing whether a downloaded map should be displayed or not? Displaying all downloaded maps is too costly concerning energy or processor time?

We are working on the manual, will be fully available in this website along with many tutorial videos.

As for the map load you are correct, the more maps you load at the same time the more resources it will use from your device. This will be even more important once we implement the POI search / browser feature…

Hello, since yesterday I am a very happy owner of the DMD-T665 Nav Phone. I love the way it mounts on the bike.

I do have one issue though. Previously I used a samsung s20. On the samsung i was able to download most of the maps of europa. I was able to keep them all “loaded” and visible on the phone.

On this carpe iter DMD-T665 I am not able to load more then 3 maps. For instance, I live in the Netherlands. I go often to Germany. The moment i load the German map, the dutch map is blank. I find this very uncomfortable.

I did a test and downloaded the maps on the internal memory of the phone. All of a sudden I had the same experience as on the samsung. I could load most of europa and have everything visible.

Is it maybe the SDCard that’s limiting?
