    In the [interface] section of sys.txt add

    extra_settings=1

    then, in the settings menu, select "extra settings" -> "arriving destination" and then, among other things, you can select what happens by tapping in "destination menu".

    Thanks for the reply...Unfortunately it has shut down the whole gps side of the unit...(blank screen..)..No navi menu etc...It may be more of a unit problem started by igo...Has anyone some idea... Thanks

    PROBLEM FIXED...Leaving the battery disconnected for a few hours may have cleared the memory of the unit...Pheww...Thanks to all replies..

    Hey chakar, just curious,.. what did your unit display? GPS not found or something similar?

    My 2DIN unit did exactly the same a few months back and have had no idea on how to fix it, reset, etc,.. has made no difference. Got to my destination and it then 'shut down', GPS never been detected since.

    Will try to remove power from it and see what gives.

    Thanks,

    Jim.....

    Hey chakar,

    Disconnecting power momentarily did the trick for me,... just enough to lose its memory settings,. bizarre how a 'reset' wouldn't achieve the same ?

    Anyhow all good now,.. just need to apply a setting to Primo2,.. to avoid this happening again.

    Thanks again,

    Jim.....
