Hello to all,
having just configured my gps (Mio M400) with LK8000 I really have to say a HUGE thanks to everyone who has been involved in the software development - Amazing technology for free !

I now have lots to learn and look forward to that and will I suspect become pretty active on this forum.

The issue I have found is that the time shown on the Mio (LK8000 software) is exactly 1 hour slow - The Mio GPS software shows correct time. Anyone have any ideas or is this due to me being in the UK and Europe being an hour behind ? (Day light saving issue perhaps?)

Any ideas gladly received.

Regards

Darren

go to config / "config 1/3" / SETUP system / get to menu 9 / UTC off-set and then play with diferent offsets until local time is right.
Hope this helps (if wrong, please someone correct this)

It may also depend on setting to use, or not use, gps time on p22

You should keep GPS time; it's the most accurate source you have.

It will be UTC- presumably the MIO onboard GPS software is working out what time zone it is in from the location, whereas LK8000 needs the time zone offset entering manually.

Currently the UK is one hour ahead of UTC, so you need an offset of plus one hour on menu 9. If you fly in the winter you will need to change back then.
