If you are talking about the OBD adaptor that was included. Plug it into the OBD port. On the apps screen there is an OBD app, select this and tap connect. Worked for me

First impressions.

Sat Nav again very clear and LOUD. (Went into the various settings both on unit settings and SatNav settings and now all sorted)

Overall very pleased with it indeed.

A couple of questions.
The back button/home button on the touch screen don't seem to work or is it my sausage like fingers?
How does the DVR camera work?
OBD/ Torque Pro. Can this be let on all the time in the background?

Last but not least. Thanks to my neighbours boy I now have a mini disc stuck in the CD slot Any ideas how I can get it out without a) destroying the unit or b) without breaking his fingers

which setting in particular to sort out the sat nav volume. used mine this week for the first time but had to mute the sat nav as even with the volume at zero it was still way too loud.

any way to set the USB drive music player to sort by Artist? it's just showing an alphabetical album folder view, not a big deal but would be nice to sort by different criteria.

screen is great , sound is great , sat nav seems to take longer to lock on that the old unit, any ideas? I have the GPS receiver stuck the underside of the dash in the center.

cheers

On the nav app press the speed button in the bottom left of the screen.
The sat nav volume buttons are in the settings option.
I also went into the general settings and reduced the nav volume.

The lady is now quite easy listening lol

from the general settings page from the home screen there's a section that says something like 'SWC' which when opened gives you a full screen menu that you can choose what you'd like controlling. You just press the button for volume up on the scene then touch you steering wheel control and it's set, do the same for down and all the other things are you're ready to go.

Made no difference to my head unit, I even changed the settings on the SYS.TXT file on iGo. without and reduction of the volume, this is only loud when I have a TTS voice, (before you say anything, I have asdjusted the setting on the TTS program too).
