No postcode search

[stalbansdragon]

Hi,

 

I've just bought a 2nd hand F900BT but can't see anywhere for a postcode search despite seeing posts on here talking about postcode searches on F900BT.

 

It has firmware version 3.020200 and maps version 2.000600.

 

Is there another update needed?

 

Thanks in advance for any help

Following up on last question: What does the CNSD-100FM update the map version number to? Mine is supposed to have been updated with this but has Firmware on V3 (ok) but maps on 2.000600 with dates of October 2008.

 

Thanks

My basemap says 2007.07 VMAP 080812 and United Kingdom 2008.10 with code 090529.

 

I'd be really grateful if someone that has updated with CNSD-100FM can check their map verion numbers.

 

thanks in advance

Just a couple questions to clarify...

 

where are you located? UK?

 

what are you looking to use postal codes to search for? address or points of interest?

Thanks for the reply Newman,

 

yes I'm in the UK and I'd like to use them for address finding primarily.

The only thing I know for sure is that we are able to search for cities in the US and Canada by postal code.

 

The screen that allows you to type in the city name will also have numbers on the top that you can use for postal codes. in the US our zip codes are all numbers but I just went outside and test it for Canada and it works as well. (Canada uses letters and numbers like the UK)

 

I cannot say for sure if this will work for you but go to that screen and give it a try.
