How do i update my Binotone 430?

your device uses co pilot software to update the maps you will need to update them from copilots site email them asking what map versions are compatible with your version of co pilot


it also runs on windows ce5 so its possible to unlock the satnav and that will allow you to install other satnav software like igo or tomtom

You need to either get the previous owner to remove the satnav from their site or give you the log in details. To remove it from the previous owner's site;

• They need to log in to myGarmin
• Click on the "myProducts" tab at the top of the screen
• The name of the satnav (i.e. nuvi 255W) will be shown here and under it in blue writing the word "Details"
• Click on "Details"
• On the next screen click on "Delete Registration"

Once it's deleted you should be able to register it under your own name. If you don't know the previous owner or can't contact them I'm afraid it won't be possible to update it.

• Connect your satnav to your computer with the mini USB lead
• Go to www.garmin.com and select your country from the drop-down list
• Click the "myGarmin" tab at the top of the screen
• Click on "register your garmin product"
• Click on "Automotive" and follow the prompts to register your satnav
  

You'll be asked to create a username and password. Keep them safe as you'll need them to download map updates.

When you've registered your satnav log into myGarmin. Then click on the myMaps tab. If there's a map update available it will be shown there. Click on "Get Update" and follow the prompts to get the update. You can get more details of how to update your maps at http://www.fixya.com/support/r5628920-update_garmin_satnav_maps

To register;

• Connect your satnav to your computer
• Go to www.garmin.com
• Select your country from the drop-down list
• Click on the "myGarmin" tab at the top of the page
  
• Click on "Register your garmin product"
• Click on "Automotive" and follow the prompts

You'll be asked to create a username and password. Keep them safe as you'll need them to update your maps.

It's unusual to get a lifetime update for maps with a garmin satnav. This may be a special offer from the dealer but I would be suspicious. To check for updates after you have registered

• Go to www.garmin.com
• Click on the myGarmin tab and log in using your username and password
• Click on the "myMaps" tab at the top of the page.

The maps on your satnav should be shown here. If there's an update available it will be shown beside it. (otherwise it will say "no update available") If there's an update available click on the "UPDATE AVAILABLE" link and follow the prompts. You'll soon find out if they want money of if you have a lifetime update.

If you bought the satnav new then you should be entitled to a free update from www.garmin.com. Garmin claim that if a new map comes out within 60 days of the first time your satnav acquires a satellite connection you can update it free from their website. Details on how to register and update your satnav can be found at http://www.fixya.com/support/r5628920-update_garmin_satnav_maps

Note: When you register the satnav log in to myGarmin and click on myMaps. The map on your satnav should be shown. If there's an update available it will be shown beside the map name. When you click on GET UPDATE it will let you know if it's free or has to be paid for.

1. If you downloaded the map updates from the garmin website you can download them again free if you need to. However if you downloaded them to your computer you may not need to download them again. Connect your satnav to your computer. On your computer click START, then click GARMIN and then MAPINSTALL. If all these are on your computer the map is probably there and will install to your satnav.

2. If it's not on your computer go to www.garmin.com and log into myGarmin. Click on myMaps. You will see the name of the map you downloaded previously and under the word DETAILS.
Click on DETAILS and it will bring you to a page where you have the option to download it again. When you're setting up the download and it says download to your satnav if you click on the dropdown arrow you get the option to install it to your computer, you computer and satnav or just your satnav. If you want to install it to your computer so you can reinstall it to your satnav in future or if it all won't fit on your satnav you can select to download to your computer. When it's downloaded it should automatically give you the option of installing to your satnav. Click yes to install. If it doesn't then follow the details in paragraph 1 above to install it.

You must have your satnav registered with garmin to get the updates. If it's not registered connect it to your computer and go to www.garmin.com. Select your country from the drop-down list. Click on "Register your garmin device" and follow the prompts. You'll be asked to create a username and password. Keep them safe as you'll need them again when you want to update your maps.

To get the updates go to www.garmin.com and log into myGarmin. Click on myMaps. The maps on your satnav will be shown there. Beside the map name there will be a message stating either "No update available" or "Get Update" If it says Get Update connect your satnav to the computer, click on the message and follow the prompts.

To update the maps you connect the satnav to your computer. If you haven't registered your satnav already you need to do so first. Go to www.garmin.com. Select your country and then click on myGarmin. If your satnav is already registered skip to the next paragraph. If it's not registered click on Register Your Garmin Product. When registering you'll be asked to create a username and password. Write them down and keep them safe as you'll need them anytime you update your maps.

When you have registered your satnav, or if it's already registered, Click on myGarmin, enter your username and password and log in. Click on myMaps. If there's a map update available it will say so beside the map name. Click on Get Update and follow the prompts.

To update the software, connect your satnav to your computer, download and install webupdater from http://www8.garmin.com/support/collection.jsp?product=999-99999-27 if you haven't already done so. When it's installed it will search for updates. Follow the prompts.

Press and hold the on/off button for ten seconds will re-set the system on the satnav. If the screen freezes after loading the maps then connect the Satnav to a pc via a usb lead and download the latest Service update fom Navman.com. With the Satnav connected to the computer and the download compleated double-click the F10 set-up.Exe and it will update the system on the Satnav. Once complete disconnect the cable and restart the F10. That was the way I sorted mine out after recieving 'little' help from Tech Support from Navman.com. My problem seems to be in the Multi-drop ability of the F10 [program one location and try and add another to plan a route] but I have never got anyhelp from the tech's other than "Buy a Connectivity kit from us and you may be able to use that to fix the problem....". If you get a "Not enough memory to complete update... " message after double clicking the F10 set-up, you will need to go into your F10 Satnav memory and look up some of the saved files from previous routes you have stored in there. I deleated some of these to free memory and it didn't seem to affect the Satnav's programming and allowed the update to complete. My F10 started fine after that. If you need any more help, Navman.com tech support may be able to suggest something....., just don't hold your breath....
