CNDV-60M Application Update for French TMC information

Here you can download an application update for Pioneer Navigation products which use the CNDV-60M Navigation/Map disc.

Recently, the French TMC information format changed.
What this means is that, when you use our CNDV-60M map disc, the new TMC messages could block your navigation unit. This update will solve the problem.

Please note that the problem can only occur on Pioneer navigation units which use the CNDV-60M map disc and that the specific TMC information format is currently only used in France.

Important:

This update is designed to work exclusively with the CNDV-60M disc.
You can be sure that you have the right disc by checking that it is clearly labelled with the product code CNDV-60M.

When this update is executed on a navigation unit which has a previous or more recent Navigation/Map disc, your navigation unit will become unusable and you will have to contact an Authorized Service Centre to reset it.

5. Create the Update Disc

• One blank CD-R or CD-RW disc
• Supported OS: Windows: 98, 98SE, Me, 2000, XP, Vista, MacOS
• Place a CD-R/-RW disc in the CD drive.
• Double click the zipped ISO file named "CNDV-60M.iso".
• The CD creation writing software on your computer should automatically open. After the software opens, it should already be set to burn an image file. If not, please make this setting in your software. If your software does not open automatically, check the next bullet
• If your software does not open automatically, then extract and save the zipped file named "CNDV-60M.iso" to a folder on your computer. Open your creation writing software, and set it to burn an image file.
• Make sure the ISO file "CNDV-60M.iso" is selected as the source file, then copy/burn the file to the disc.

Update the CNDV-60 application using the CD-R or CD-RW disc containing the update files.

• Switch on your Navigation unit and remove your CNDV-60M map disc
• Load the CD-R or CD-RW disc which contains the update files
• The update will start automatically and will take between 5 to 10 minutes.
• Note: Do not turn off or disconnect the power, or remove the disc while the update is in progress
• When the update is finished the unit will automatically restart and ask for your CNDV-60M disc
• The upgrade was successful if the Version (see point 1) is the same as the version in the download table

Important Remark: You will have to update your navigation unit every time that you change the language setting.
