Hi,

Enjoying this site and getting lots of useful information. Smile

I have had a bit of a search on here and www, trying to locate a pdf file of the manual that came with my ICn520 asI have misplaced my instruction booklet, can someone please point me in the right direction.

Also, is the 520 able to show the actual speed of the vehicle being travelled in ?

Thanks

Marc

The Product Guide is here and yes, you can see the speed of the vehicle you're travelling in. Look on p.50 for 2D and p.51 for 3D.

If I can add a question onto this thread ~

I have a 520 and wonder how accurate the speed indication is, as there is quite a discrepancy between my vehicle speedo and the gps, like when the gps says 74mph my speedo says 80mph.

I think that is a bit more than the usual speedo error, and I was wondering if the miles are statute UK, US or nautical ?

(there aren't any of these speed indicating devices on the roads around here which I could compare with and I doubt I would get a clear run on a known road distance to do a timed run)

Any ideas folks ?

Hi
your GPS is more accurate than the speedo.
speedo is about 10% under actual.
