This was working fine until it wouldn't switch off with the power button the side. so i pushed the soft reset button on the base of the unit but still no fix, so i moved the hard reset switch to the left then back to the right, now the display lights up with some text on the top
DOWNLOAD IMG
i presume it is waiting for some sort of operating system or boot image to be loaded into this navman pocket pc
even if the supplied navman MMC card with the maps is inserted then nothing happens.
if i plug the sync / charger usb cable into the pc, then a new device is found, but drivers or software cant be found for it on the supplied CD's or the microsoft site.
the new device comes up as
SEC S3c2410x Test B/D
i installed microsoft active sync off the supplied CD onto the pc, but it wont see the navman device connected to the usb port. the newly installed SmartST software cannot see it either.
I cant find any support on the navman web site for this problem.
any ideas?
RECENTLY I DID PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THING
SO HERE IS WHAT I DID :
" I TURNED IT ON AND HIT THE HARD RESET AND THEN LEFT IT ON TILL ALL P[OWER WENT AWAY FROM UNIT
SECOND I HAD TO DOWNLOAN A NEW VERSION FOR MY UNIT ; MEANING MAP
THEN I TOOK THE BATTERY OUT AND AND PLUGED IN MY USB CORD AND IT TOOK IT
I PUT MY BATTERY IN AND CHARGED OVER NIGHT AND WELL IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT TO DO BUT FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND MY DRIVER GOT BOOTED OFF THE UNIT AND ANOTHER DRIVER FOR A MODEL WAS ATTACHED
HOW I DONT KNOW BUT MY UNIT WORKS NOW FOR THE LAST 4 MONTHS NO PROBLEMS
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU OUT RICHARD FROM CHICAGO

Ta, this put me on the right track!
LEFT IT ON for about 2 hours TILL almost all POWER WENT AWAY FROM UNIT with the DOWNLOAD IMG message on the otherwise blank lighted up screen
Then I moved the hard reset switch to the left then back to the right, the Navman logo showed and it booted and loaded the smart st from the MMC memory card. it warned me about a low battery, and said something about registering on the CD.
i plugged it into the charger straight away
i plugged the usb into the pc and it was recognised as a "windows powered pocket pc 2003"
Microsoft active sync now sees it as well.
everything seems to be ok now.
strange how the restart didn't happen with a fully charged battery...
I have a Navman PiN 570 GPS Receiver it doesnt respond to power on/off
button it only powers up by moving Hard Reset Switch to right then
freezes saying navman in top left corner and SmartST in bottom right
corner, can anyone give any adivce on how i may solve this problem?
thanks in advance
