Anyone got a Dension Gateway 300 v2?

If so, by a massive stroke of luck does anyone have a copy of the config file to enable text display on the unit?
I've installed it, but when I've come to download the config file from dension's website, the link is down! :(
Long shot I know, but if anyone does have a copy it would be most gratefully recieved. It's called:
GW_CFG_BMW_V2_STARTTEXT.bin
Cheers

The only person who springs to mind who has it is PawnSacrifice. Send him a PM and/or edit the title of thread with his name in it.
 
Do I really go on about it that much? :oops:

Si, I thought I needed that for mine, but it was a config issue. Have you done the setup on CD6? If not I'll dig you the details - something like you set the system to iPOD GW and then set the text row... the system works around there being three rows of text on the display, you need to tell it to move down to the single line you have on the Business CD (assuming that's what you have). Then set whether you want it to scroll or display a partial title.

For some reason this isn't in the instructions, I'll have a look now, I have some somewhere that Dension hooked me up with.

EDIT: Instructions about half way down this page - might be worth a link to see if you have any issues Adey did:
http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=14004&p=210051&hilit=+dension+business#p210051

If you have done all of the above I'll check back on another thread - someone else on here needed to upgrade the firmware... they may have the file still.
EDIT: Adey... but by the looks he did the update rather than the TEXT.BIN

FINAL EDIT: From Dension (to confirm, do the process above):
"Most cases in BMW you can have id3 text display (this feature is disabled by default) and Gateway menu on the display, except if the Head Unit:

- made by Becker
- has factory phone preparation or phone button
- has factory phone kit

The new GW100 (GW16BMx) and GW300 (GW33BMx) has a built-in text selector menu so you can set text without using any configuration files."

Good luck... anything else just ask.
 
All sorted now... thanks for the reply PS.
Very quick reply as I've got the baby today and she's tearing the house apart when unsupervised - just wanted to say thanks. :)
I'll post more details later.
