I loaded version 7.162 into my 910 and checked the "Switch off when external power is lost" check box.
It works but...as I'm driving along occasionaly and randomly the message that the unit is shutting down is displayed. Sometimes it goes away quickly sometimes it counts down a couple of seconds.
I also noticed that the battery/charging indicator seems to switch between charging and not charging and shows that the battery is not fully charged even when it is not displaying the word "charging". It also shows an increase and decrease in battery charge level while it displays the word "charging". I see the same thing when the unit is on the docking station. In either case the green external power light never even flickers.
The randomness of these two issues seems to indicate that they are related.
Although the battery/charging indicator acts this way with or without the auto shutoff selected, it does not seem to affect the unit in any way except when the auto shutoff is selected.
Any thoughts?
