The TMC bar goes to 50% for a few seconds when I change the frequency (no matter what frequency I choose) but the RDS bar remains 0%.
I'm using the maps from the XLE version. They're TMC enabled.
Any ideas?

using the indepdent tool outside Centrafuse you should be able to scan and get a TMC signal from a station in your region, otherwise there are no TMC signals being sent or your antenna can't pick them up for some reason...

Why can't i use my GNS RDS 9830 for TMC? ((

Isn't there any possibitly? It is a GPS Receiver with included TMC/RDS, so I have only 1 Com/USB port....no chance? stupid...

David what about TMC in canada?

[Jan]

All we can do right now is TMC for Europe.

We're looking to get TMC in North America under Clear Channel or NavTech. if Canada will be using one of these, then it will be available around the same time as it's avaliable for North America.

If Canada won't be using one of these, then it will be longer.

sorry for asking again

[Jan]

Are you saying that you've TRIED to use it and can't or are you asking why you can't?

You can't use it because Destinator doesn't support it at the same time on Windows and they say they can't.

You need a special driver to split the data into multiple com ports, one for TMC and one for GPS, and they never got it working.

I tried it and and it didn't work. the driver you talk about sounds interesting....do u have the name of it?
Otherwise i have to search a little bit. thx

[Jan]

What I'm saying is that Destinator couldn't get it to work with their own driver. I don't think this is a driver that's avaliable online somewhere.
