RNS510 map zoom issue

[Matto]

Since updating the fireware I have found that when I access the map screen it doesn't remember the last zoom scale. i.e If it was last set to 100yrds it forgets this and will be zoomed right out to 300miles. Not sure when it does this but can only guess at it being when the car he been turned off.

Only seems to have done it since the update. Has anyone else had or seen this issue and is there a fix?

What update were you on and what have you gone up to? Did the update finish correctly or with an error?

[Matto]

I believe I was on 3970 and went to 4120 on a Rev H. And yes everything update correctly with no errors.

And when you turn it on it's always zoomed right out to 300 miles? Does it lose position and reset to Regensburg?

And, have you set the zoom to Auto?

Mine does this too. Bloody annoying when its showing you the entire uk and part of europe!

It seems to pick and choosed it again earlier and it had gone to 200yrds from 100yrds. Need to do more testing to see if there is any consistency. I wasn't aware of the auto zoom but had a look earlier and that was definitely off. Position wise it is fine. Doesnt seem to suffer from Regensburg syndrome.

It's known firmware bug. You might try to solve it by upgrading to josi's modified firmware 5238.

I have a DAB RNS510 with map version 7918, SW version 5218 and my map zooms out mysteriously when it's previously been set at a local view. Does anyone have an idea how to stop this?!
Thanks

As above, you haven't got the zoom set to Auto, have you?

[galaxie500]

Hmm. That is a very good question!  I'll take a look when I'm back in the car later. I dont think I knew about this setting so many thanks!

Had the opportunity to play with my RNS 510 this evening whilst stuck in a monster traffic jam due to a diversion off the A3!
I couldn't find Auto zoom function on RNS510 - any pointers?
Thanks

On the "Maps" screen on the bottom right hand side where it tells you the altitude, is there a small letter A in a circle next to it? That signifies Auto Zoom. Touch the Altitude display and it'll change to a large letter A, touch this to turn Auto on and off.

Thank you! I'll check shortly. In most other ways the RNS510 is pretty great although it didn't tell me about the huge traffic jam & diversion last night we encountered on the A3! Resurfacing apparently.
I'll put up my zoom findings later. Thanks again.

This isn't an issue with the autozoom. I've tried that. I believe it's a bug in the 4120 firmware. I just need to find out what other firmware I can go to.
