I have a two part question.

(A) How do I get my unit to show a route demo from a starting point
500 +KL from my present possision ?
It seems everytime I try and get my unit to show me a route demo it will start from where I am now and it will only go about 100 or so KL and then
start over.

(B) That brings me to question 2 is there any way to extend the distance of the route demo?
Gary

a/ Use AtoB (Advance Planning) and set a departure point then arival point, when the device shows the route summary press "Details" and then "Route Demo" this will let you see the route demo without your GPS position fix messing up the start point.

b/ There is no way to increase this, it was intended for shop demos left unattended, if you use the method (a) above you can split your trip into smaller chunks and view all of it - Mike

What happens if you increase the speed of the demo? I seem to remember that it was a time limit rather than a distance limit but I can't test it myself at the moment.
