Hello

 

I have looked through the posts and seen that a few people have installed the Panda 8080 GPS unit.

 

Just got one of these and am about to take it apart, i have a few questions though

 

1: Does anyone have IGO8 for download?

2: how do you connect the iphone to this unit

3: is it quite straight forward to extend the power switch

 

 

Cheers in advance

Power switch is much easier than I thought. you have the positive and negative connections either side and you can bridge the switch with an extended switch. Make sure you get a 'push to make' none clicking switch. You dont even have to remove the original switch just go around it!

 

Dashed line is a new cable and switch

Cheers for the replies, little confused though?

 

Do i need a non clicky power switch for this to work, i have a old switch from a PC, but its the clicky type

no you need a push to make none locking

Yeah, push to make, rather than a toggle. Basically it only supplies power while you told it down, like a PC switch. If you use a toggle switch it supplies power until you press it again to release it. That will confuse the little thing ;)

 

Did you downoload Igo in the end? I thought it came pre-installed?

I have got this piece of kit and as stated it comes with IGO6 i have now got IGO8 and am at a loss how you install it from the sd card which has the installation files.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Anybody?

 

I have nearly got this working now but might have some map issues. Could someone who has done this let me know how they edited the sys file on the sd card for this to work correctly.

 

cheers
