#21 of 963 : anyone found a way to ... (dcrisler) by dcrisler Sep 30, 1999 (2:20 pm)
well that was enough of a hint to find it in the manual...(pp61) from 1st setup screen    press previous     then follow the instructions to delete any of the addresses on the list or all of them! Thanks, David. Also in the other topic, someone had trouble setting up the pin for the use personal addresses list... the 1st time you try it, you have to enter done with no numbers i.e. there is no pin yet so don't try and enter one... (pp 52 in the nav book)
#22 of 963 NAV SCREEN by e173m Sep 30, 1999 (6:10 pm)
Does anyone know the size of the NAV screen and weather it is an active matrix display or not.
#23 of 963 Pin number by pkrbkr Oct 01, 1999 (10:47 am)
I had trouble setting up the pin number. When I followed the instruction to press DONE I got a "pin number error" or something to that effect. I finally entered the anti-theft "CODE" number for both user 1 and user 2 and that solved the problem. Try it. I too have tried to delete previous destinations. I think you just enter new ones and the old ones eventually go away because the system will hold just so many.
#24 of 963 : Pin number by dcrisler Oct 01, 1999 (3:25 pm)
Well I will try the pin number thing... but the poster above that expalined how to delete the previous entries was correct, hit setup then previous then scroll through the entries and touch each one to delete. fast and easy. nav screen, maybe 3.5 x 5? but it is not lcd... at least it does not look it, or have the problems with looking at it from an angle... it is very bright and viewable from any angle, side to side or high or low.
#25 of 963 Screen type by jimblock Oct 01, 1999 (3:50 pm)
Again, I'm at work, so I don't have the manual, but the screen certainly looks like an active matrix LCD screen. It is very good display, well-backlit, visibile even in sunlight.
#26 of 963 Screen type by dcrisler Oct 01, 1999 (4:22 pm)
if it is an lcd... it is the best I have ever seen, with absolutly no degradation when viewing from the sides... Although from the application and size contraints... I would have thought it to be an lcd... but it does not look like one or behave like one... i.e. when I touch my laptop display... the colors shift around the point I touch, this does not happen on the nav. It does feel a little like the lcd display, but that is the touch membrane ... (if I ever find a reason to pull off the dash panel I will know.)
#27 of 963 Better NAV system by trif Oct 02, 1999 (10:45 pm)
Since the NAV system already has a satellite receiver, the next step up is a continuously updating map database streamed from a satellite. It would be paid for by advertisers who want their establishment beamed to every customer with a NAV system, the NAV software would be smart enough to figure out to store the highest possible detail for the area you happen to be driving in and delete detail in areas you aren't. Any guesses on when a NAV system will feature in the first criminal trial? "Where were you on the night of October 3rd?" "I was at home all night." dramatic pause "Not according to the NAV system in your CSS '02 Ody EX-NAV you weren't!" "Rats, I forgot about that."
#28 of 963 DVD crazy question by jadams2 Oct 03, 1999 (2:34 am)
I'm almost positive this wouldn't work but does anyone know what would happen if you put another DVD disk in the player. Like a movie disk. We asked the dealer and he didn't know.
#29 of 963 : DVD crazy question by dcrisler Oct 03, 1999 (3:15 am)
since the system knows the database is not avail. i.e. I removed the dvd and the system blanked and then said the database was unavail. ... It would seem it has an operating system of sorts, that is waiting to find the database and continue startup and initialization...
#30 of 963 Screen type (dcrisler) by dhaxton Oct 03, 1999 (3:27 am)
I suspect what they did with the display is put a fairly thick layer of glass between the touch sensitive layer and the LCD layer. Normal LCD panels don't need this extra weight and expense because being touched/pressed is not their normal mode of operation. I think the colors change on regular LCD panels because the crystal carrying liquid is being compressed.
