Setting "Home" phone number

Post by kernowing »

Having recently installed an Autocom system on my bike, I'm confused as to why when I try to "Call Home" in (the 660's phone menu) it tries to connect me to an 04684***** number. My actual Home number is in my phone's contacts list with the correct number. Is there a way to alter this to give me the shortcut to call home?
Thanks, Pete.

That number is probably programmed in to the zumo and will be calling that number and not the one in the phone

I was rather hoping someone with a 660 could tell me how to delete & replace it.

I believe that you can add a number to your home location - which is in Tools / My Data / Set Home Location.

Sorry, i no longer have a 660, so I can't verify this, but that is what the manual says.
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

That's spot on Sir, reset "Home" and phone #. Unfortunately, I tested it shortly after your post and woke the Missus at 01:00 :roll:
Thanks for the reply.
Cheers, Pete.
