« on: January 21, 2016, 12:23:08 pm »
To be honest I don't know much about this at all so if someone could help please .
I have a rns510 B version so not to get battery drain . If I was to install the new maps say
V12 or v13 is it just a case of popping in the map DVDs and let it load , job done ?

B v. doesn't mean you can't have battery drain issue, just your unit has the oldest software on it, should be 1xxx. To get latest maps working you need to update your software to 38xx and if your gateway is not compatible, you will get drain issue. For new maps you need more space in hdd, so it is solved with sw update, hdd gets more space for maps, less for music.
