Navigation Self Diagnostic Extra Modes

[Pete82]

Hello,

While playing around on the weekend i found the self diagnositc mode for the Navigation system.

In this mode you can test all components connected to the DVD rom navigation unit, eg tv tuner, gps antenna, etc.

I also found these extra screens.

By pressing the MAP and DISPLAY buttons together for 5 secs you get into the diagnostic mode.

The first screen has 2 options, the top option is self test, the second one has this screen

If you hold the MAP and DISPLAY buttons down for another 5 seconds on this screen you get this one

You notice you get the additional function of SRAM (i think this resets the whole system)

If you take the 3rd option down it has 3 functions -

1st option is gyro angle adjustment

2nd option is speed calibration

3rd option is this screen showing all gps data

I have tried to work out what each set of figures mean?

Can anyone else work out what the different menu options say?

Cheers

Pete

i forgot to ask a fellow stagea owner on the weekend. if i see him thursday night ill ask to borrow it and ill attempt to copy it. ill make an image of it available assuming it works. maybe a torrent or something.......

Nice one!

I'm wondering if adjusting the gyro angle may be able to sort out our Compasses that are off here in Oz? ... or would that just be relating to the VDC perhaps?

disc is a DVD and yes it can be copied.

one item you missed there was the greyed out langauage button.

these screens were covered about a year ago and the translations of the sub menus.

1st option is gyro angle adjustment

2nd option is speed calibration

3rd option is this screen showing all gps data

Regarding the 1st option.... I wonder if that would solve the 'inaccurate' Compass direction?

Have you tried if you can make some custom adjustments in any of those options/screen?

The best way is probably install a Japanese IME on your laptop, bring it over to your car with a local WIFI to your home ADSL, and you can translate most of the screen easily using google translators...

Does anyone know where I could download the nav disc from? Is there a torrent?

I've been looking for this for over a year now.

Thanks,

Tom

have a chat to andy - his username I dunno but he organise the work on russian translation thing... I think it's andy56b or something like that...

have a browse on this forum you'll easily see his name come up around

I played around, didn't get anywhere... almost killed my battery since took me some time with laptop and google translator with Japanese IME character recognition pad open, lots of copy paste...

Going into navigation directional setting there is one setting where you adjust the % (accuracy?) with left and right turn, I am not sure what it is...

probably trying to compensate for delay in the GPS signal and tuning the timing between a turning timing etc? well what the heck...

it's a finicky to work with and cbf anymore...
