Greetings,

 

I bought a 2001 996TT a little while back and I finally got an old school NAV CD to test the PCM.  Really bizarre.  It loads the map, you can find way points (like the nearest airport) but when I try to get directions, it says "vehicle is off map".  But the latitude and longitude displayed in the the info is correct.

 

There is no map on the screen at all at this point (and there never is) just the purple direction arrow.

 

Here is the version screen:

PCM Software:

PCM/IDIS V5.44

Navigation Software:

Ver.PONA629C

Database:

dca9/18602627

 

I can't find anything that references PONA629C.... I see PONA642 & PONA628... but not a 629...

 

I don't drive it enough to merit a PCCM+ but having some form of map on the screen would be nice.

 

Anyone have any thoughts here?

 

Thanks,

Jon
