Hi,
sorry can't reproduce it. ETA shows me times to be expected.
Sorry, it was my fault. I forgot to change the ETA calculation (on mean speed instead of on the track).
Use this website 'https://mapy.cz' (worldwide and no login required) or apps (mapy.cz for Android and iOS) to make a route; then export it by TwoNav Link from smartphone to Cross+ (or any other TwoNav device) and see that ETE=0, ETA=actual time.
Most probably it is a matter of current the 'mapy.cz' fault.
Dears,
check please, if ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) is right when navigating the track?
I think ETA is wrong when navigating the track and it shows the actual time...
Cheers, Marek
Hi,
consider future updates, I've just been waitin' for a little bit more sophisticated digital elevation plots, i.e.:
1) an elevation plot of the route recalculated "on/off roads - on fly after recalculation";
2) a climb pro function.
Cheers,
Marek
Edit: Strava live and Geocaching live would be welcome too 
Thanks for your tip!
BTW, is there any other solution for "Automatischer Start von Freier Aktivität" without need for modification of options.cxml (for Cross Plus and Android app)?
Grüsse, Marek
Danke,
Autolaps von Slope funktioniert, aber es scheint sich in einer frühen Entwicklungsphase zu befinden. Die Anzahl der erstellten Laps ist inakzeptabel und muss optimiert werden. Es hat nichts mit den weitaus besseren Garmin-Algorithmen zu tun. Das Gute ist, dass das CompeGPS-Team daran arbeitet: GPS, Software and Maps for Professional Services (twonav.com)
Grüße, Marek
Kann der Proto-Modus in TwoNav Cross aktiviert werden?
Hallo
Das TwoNav-System kann Distanz/Zeit Autolap (Land 9 kann: Thermik&Übergänge - thermals&transitions).
Wissen Sie, warum Cross dies nicht kann Thermik&Übergänge (thermals&transitions) ob diese Funktion in Zukunft implementiert wird?
Grüße,
Marek
I am so sorry, but I must admit that it was my mistake - everything works smoothly.
Meanwhile I wrote also a ticket to Compe team which I have to withdraw.
I cannot complain about Cross Plus anymore.
You know what?!
It seems that there is a bug in the "trackattack".
It does not work on v-map when autorouting is active.
Once the routing is deactivated, "trackattack" works again.
Thanks, it (trackattack) works fine!
Therefore I appologize for bothering you, I did something wrong.
The topic can be closed.
Thanks for detailed explanation!
Trackattack - I simply press "Go" > "Trackattack" > activity from the list.
So, I used one from the previously recorded activity - I checked it a few times, but the "green arrow" of the virtual partner does not apper, and the dist attack/time attack fields are "null".
I used either *.trk and *.gpx files.
I also checked it in the mobile app - but it the smartphone it works flawleslly.
Edit:
It is strange for me, as all the basic functions work well - like recording, wireless sharing, mapping, navigation - all them works as should.
Only specific functions does not work, also the function introduced with the ver. 5.5 of the firmware (course point choice does not work).
Edit2:
Is it possible to downgrade to the first (factory) firmware version of the Cross Plus?
The problem is that in my unit some functions does not work - such as: "Trackattack" (virtual partner).
I predict that it is cause by my faulty firmware instalation, as in your case it works well.
I only noticed that when the GPS fix is received "under sky" (outside), it is a little bit better to get fix inside, on the window's sill.
Also, at train is good to seat next to the "emergency window" which is bigger, and probably made from different glass than the others - at least in my case it worked today.
Edit:
To summarize: the unit shall be turned on and receive the GPS fix outdoors, otherwise (indoor) we may wait for the GPS fix endlessly.
Edit 2:
In my case (southern Poland), the best choise is GPS+Beidou and the GPS fix problem seems to be solved.
I have no idea what is going on with the firmware in my unit...
Is it possible that when I updated the firmware via Wi-Fi, some old files left and cause troubles?
Can you tell me what files are required in the: [AppData], and what files can be erased?
BTW, next time I will update my Cross by Land.
Hi Gert,
I have installed 5.5.3, but the "trackattack" against the recorded activity does not work either.
Is there any special way to start the "trackattack" of previous activity?
Looking deeply into the functionality, I noticed several things which shall work, but they don't work in my unit. Apart of the "trackattack" fail, I also noticed lack of the function which is claimed in the 5.5 version, i.e. switch to any from the course points when navigating along the course - as I use GPX course files, I cannot "jump forward" into next course point or jump back to the previous course point as it shall work...
I have not idea what is wrong with my unit... I can't complain about its functionality - it works, wireless transmition is smooth, GPS reception outside is great, but it lacks functions which shall be working...
Regards,
Marek
Here is mine - GPS + GLONASS in both cases.
What's weird that Garmin Etrex 30 gets and holds fix immediately, whereas Cross Plus endlessely acquire sattelite system (the same sattelites are recognized: No. 10, 21, 32, and 88, but only eTrex 30x gets a fix). Opening the window solves the situation (both units shows almost the same accuracy).
Maybe there is not that much a problem with GPS reception, but rather with the GPS fix (both: cold fix and hot fix).
I have tried several things: erasing gps.ini, downloading fresh A-GPS, switching off all the radios: BT and Wi-fi.
TwoNav fimware version is already fresh installed: 5.5.3.
What firmware version have you got?
I have 5.5.2.
Though, it is generaly fine, I noticed strange behaviour in particular cases, such as:
a. poor GPS reception inside,
and others:
b. no trackattack,
c. no switches to course points when navigation along the course...
I have done several tests and with comparison to Garmin Etrex 30x.
It is evident that my TwoNav Cross Plus is extremely sensitive to any physical barriers (even glass window) and immediately looses GPS signal once the window is closed.
# edit: I have already reported firmware version 5.5.2 at the Compe GPS (TwoNav) website.

Marek
That's true. Nevertheless, in my "indoor" test I keep all other radios: BT and Wi-Fi switched off.
That's not a big deal, but I am just curious why the GPS is so hard to get and also the GPS signal vanishes immediatelylty when I enter the car/train/building... In the case of Garmin I can still rely on GPS signal at least inside the car and the train - TwoNav requires to be so close to the window...
Maybe, it is somehow connected with the bulit-in anthenna position (?)...
Edit #2:
In my case, the GPS signal vanishes immediately under even small bridge, tunnel, etc.
Dear colleagues,
I noticed that my TwoNav Cross Plus has very weak GPS signal reception inside the house/car/train. The Garmin receives the GPS signal much faster in the same locations.
So far, I did not noticed any problems with GPS reception of the TwoNav Cross Plus outside - what's more, outside the GPS reception of the TwoNav Cross Pus is even better than Garmin.
It's strange, isn't it?
Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen,
ich habe festgestellt, dass mein TwoNav Cross Plus im Haus/Auto/Zug einen sehr schwachen GPS-Empfang hat. Das Garmin empfängt das GPS-Signal an den gleichen Stellen viel schneller.
Im Außenbereich sind mir bisher keine Probleme mit dem GPS-Empfang des TwoNav Cross Plus aufgefallen - im Außenbereich ist der GPS-Empfang des TwoNav Cross Pus sogar besser als bei Garmin.
Es ist seltsam, nicht wahr?
Grüße,
Marek
Hi Gert,
it is great news (!) since I am very pleased with my new gadget (Cross Plus) so far.
Regards,
Marek
