Does anyone have the ISO for the ENGLISH firmware for the travelpilot fx ?  I found an update yesterday and posts said it worked but the nav now speaks in German !  Everything else is in English though lol.

No, the actual units firmware - I have the maps and they work fine. But it's the actual unit that's speaking in German lol. 

The map and unit comes up in English writing though which is odd 

after doing a quick search around online it seems the updates are on the sd card that the maps are on and there only avalible from link below

going via all the data in that post

a much later 2011 update 5.3 was the last, but needs maps from 2009 or newer (the polish site that has a link needs you to resister to get it... but of course no idea if the link is OK  allegedly fixed lots of bugs and brings lots of later features like 7 digit post code entry in the UK, TMC and a massive list of bug fixes

 

The following claims can either be fixed with the software service pack 5.1 or 5.3:

• Destination can not be entered using the seven-digit postcode (UK only)
• Resetting during operation,
• Navigations/Radiodates no longer appear on the repeater display (combination)
• Missing Audio/Voiceguidance after starting the engine
• Voice service can not be activated even after repeated pressing the PTT button
• Unit is in navigation mode for several minutes while the pop-up window appears <Navigation activated>
• Unit is in navigation mode for several minutes while the use of a disclaimer <The Zielführung...> is displayed and the button <OK> does not work
• Unit is on the lists for the target input / target selection,
• Stuck in the speech device operation for several minutes while the pop-up window appears <Sprachbetrieb aktiviert>,
• Unit is facing Tunnel Transit / Parking garage on over a long period, the message <No GPS>
• Occasionally, the function of <Ziel Map> not be used
• Volume can not be changed
• CD / AUX button does not work
• After starting the device displays only a blue screen
• Empty / grayed softkeys, although these would be activated
• Device hangs when running from a USB / iPod / Aux audio sources
• No iPod / USB device
• Pop-up window will <CD geprüft> appears after starting for a long time (> 2 min) on the display
• Only Kuga 2008.5 with camera - parking aid: If you want the reverse gear is quickly shown a picture of the area behind the vehicle
• Only Galaxy 2006.5 with keypad - Additional Air Conditioning: No operation of the air conditioning system
• Incorrect climate information in the status bar
• Personal settings (language, etc.) are lost
• Frequent resets in the operation
• Very short (<1 second) audio dropouts while playing music
• Deep and loud hum when playing audio sources (possibly only one channel),
• No navigation voice during telephone conversations

The following objections can be resolved only with the software service package 5.3:

• Reset the navigation system with high number of traffic messages (TMC)
• After engine start audio system is again a different station
• (S-MAX/Galaxy 2006.5, 2007.5 Mondeo): After engine start will not eject the CD.


The new SP 5.3 - V.1118 - 29.4.2010 is on the polish fordclub: http://forum.fordclu...ead.php?t=80658

Hi Dave, I'm having Bluetooth pairing issues, hoping a firmware update will fix / give the unit a kick up the a**! 

If you don't mind I would like to take you up on your offer of borrowing your disc? I will post back asap of course!

Thanks Bill

 

Hi Bill, 

The software version is 4.1  on the disc I have, apparently & when I installed it it updated the fx satnav to the version in the photo below.

To my knowledge this is the latest  software version, (information is hard to find), unless anyone has newer. Check yours 1st & if you still need it pm me your address.

Dave.

I would expect the Bluetooth updated by doing a different module -

 

do you have a USB connection ? if so put this on a stick

Hello Dave!

Can you upload somewhere ISO file of this firmware CD?

go to same site above and get the one you need

Hi everyone, just bought a Focus with the travel pilot sat nav. I am after newer maps, can I just buy an sd card or do I have to update firmware? This is the sd card what’s in the unit now. Thanks in advance.

That SD card is a mere 13 years out of date. For the more up to date maps you need a new SD card.

Thanks so would this be suitable I have seen on ebay? Thanks 

I've seen comments that the 4.1 firmware update from the fordcom link above makes the nav speak in german. Can anyone tell me if this is true? and if it can be changed back to english?
