Lag in updating location on Maps in RA4 - Help

[Sactoyman]

I updated my 2015 Ram 1500 with 8.4 RA4 system. Everything works fine Including navigation works and it tracks my vehicle, but it's just slow and lagging with updating my movements. It updates about every 20-25 seconds.

Anyone else has seen this problem? I tried 2 different RA4 units and both have same issue. Please help.

I remember changing a setting on which type nav sat system to use and made mine work perfect. Look under settings in nav, can't remember which one I picked. Think there are 3, the 2-3 ones worked great for me. I will take picture of setting when I get in truck to go to work. When I first changed out my 13 8.4a to 2015 8.4an my map spun and took forver to find location. Once I changed setting, locks on in seconds.

Thank you...I can’t figure it out so if you can post the pic of your settings it would be great.

This is what I selected, not sure what it does, but worked for me.

Not sure if this even does anything. Was trying to find info on it But when I selected I it, my maps were stuck on Cali where the trucks radio came from Right after selecting this it updated my location in WA. Might have been coincidence but can't hurt.

That is what mine is on already.

Latest updated radio, good antenna connection is only thing other I can think of. I know I live in a rural area with tall trees, it doesn't lock in as fast, I don't even have a gps antenna on top of truck, is inside somewhere.

What does the accuracy number show on your system?
