Amazon send back to the possibility the navigation within 30 days.
Especially since I had last year return Navis different manufacturers due to software defects or handling defects, with appropriate stress, here the technology supplier of major German discounter a..i was noted.

General Note:
Tested in Womo construction TEC 5760 on Fiat Ducato 2003 in cars Toyota Aygo
(Position in both vehicles with an old retainer near the steering wheel without visual impairment.)

4 stars
for accessories
There are in:
+ 1 adapter cigarette lighter to USB connection. The chunky but relatively soft cable with integrated TMC antenna for traffic information has an angle-USB connector.
+ 1 USB cable for charging via laptop or PC or for communication with the computer for up-date etc.
~ 1 window mount, which also could be positioned on a flat surface, depending on the angle on the dashboard. For example, an adhesive plate with my old equipment as standard; because such a thing is not which is then your problem)
Note this:
Some WoMo the windshield is very far away from the driver and with a telescope should not manipulate while driving. I use my ancient gooseneck placed directly on the steering wheel on an adhesive plate. Thus, also the driver's field of vision is not impaired.
+ Service card with scratch panel on the coding of the up-date-in-motion.
+ A Quick Reference Guide for handsfree operation
+ A Quick Reference Guide for address input driving targets
- A battery charger as a few years ago is not present usual.

Note:
Think that many car cigarette lighter sockets or are turned off during the engine stall it.

2 stars
for the manuals.
Two brief instructions, even for the speakerphone and once for entering addresses will be delivered with.
The detailed operating instructions 56 pages 2,3 MB You have to be downloaded from the Blaupunkt website. Although illustrated with many photos, it is a Allerweltsanleitung at the match the photos of several menus, as well as the texts, not the presentation on the phone.
For a number of points, you can not exactly read like the logical way to the correct setting works.

Example:
Quote Blaupunkt beginning
3.7 Coordinate
About the coordinate input, you can enter precise WGS 84 coordinates.
These consist of the specification W / O or N / S and a decimal with 1-2
Integers and decimal places 0-7.
, Quote Blaupunkt end
Then times lucky.

Well, that I have experience with the entry of various coordinate systems and their conversion.
I could enter 2 different coordinate systems, sometimes the second presentation was missing then just briefly turn to the next system and back.
----------------
3 stars
for the up-date procedure.
Call necessarily on the website of Blaupunkt directly after registering the PDF file 'instructions for online update TravelPilot, Moto Pilot German' with the instructions of the up data to.
The best print and reproduce in peace!
You can do a lot wrong.
For example, mistakenly formatted or only an up-date to carry out although still stand by other files.
I would like to describe here in detail, but the method is not necessarily logical.
Should anything fail, try several times, also writes of manufacturers and I can attest to that.
It is expressly repeatedly to the large amounts of data (I have about 4.6 GB determined) noted:
Quote Blaupunkt beginning
You need a Windows PC with fast internet for the implementation of online updates.
The amount of data that must be loaded for the update to your PC, depending on the model you purchased and maps can be very high (up to 3 GB and more). Therefore, we recommend a fast DSL connection (min. 2,000, 16,000 more), so that your waiting time when downloading is not unnecessarily prolonged. Mobile Internet connections are inadequate.
, Quote Blaupunkt end

At my TP software in March 2014 on March 1, 2015 was not a card up-date available, an up-date stands despite describing the every 6 to 12 months.
Because I did not believe that I've repeated the procedure and behold now there was at least an extra-up date for Blitzer and one for the new low-emission zones.

Note:
Register just before the end of the return period because you must rubles on the service map for lifelong up-date for an up-date a field. If you return the unit Be sure to clear all data and routes you have entered.
----------------------
3 stars
for the navigation device Blaupunkt TravelPilot 52 Camping EU LMU, called here by me TP.

Note:
If I draw now and then a comparison that is based on a 10 year old device from Navigon PNA 7000T. Thorough experience are at Falk, Medion, Navigon and some other manufacturers whose Navi were however at least partially returned immediately after the first few rides. Since everything was there, from terminating connections, freezing images particularly at the junction of highways to drive the left / right issue to language map, turn commands on ferries or instructions directly from the bridge into the canal.
-------------------
For device:
- The TP acts through its glossy surface is very elegant but that is bought in my eyes by extreme levels, especially in direct comparison with my old PNA that shows how it works. Due to the lateral placement of the Navi ports, a commercial shading system can not be mounted.
- The drive menu at the bottom is also because it is cluttered with ads, quite confusing.

Car connection:
- The connection of USB and car adapter is mechanically advantageous at the bottom on the left side instead. Below could at a low cost terminal Although the plug from falling out, but he breaks the side in my experience by the way the load direction of the USB port in the device. (That's me repeatedly happened in another manufacturer).
+ In order to compensate somewhat the connecting cable has a 90 degree angle USB connector on one clunky though surprisingly soft adapter cable with integrated TMC antenna.

+ There is a headphone jack.

+ Handsfree via a Bluetooth function, the connection with my Nokia 2670 Uralt has been recognized properly. Next I have not tried the feature with us is basically not using the phone while driving.

~ Volume, with the highest setting to accept just yet in the camper. If I missed anything there for announcements only a woman's voice: 'Tamara' something schräppig towards our old 'Uschi' in Navigon.
Street signs are the way original, the trendy hot as printed.
So when printed do-Brackel, Dortmund-Brackel but not DO-Brackel.
On the positive side, the announcement of street names.
The announcements are usually made in the appropriate time frame for removal action.

- Calculation times.
The first basic switching takes 48 seconds for old PNA 41 seconds.
Insertions of the sleep function are out for the TP in a 3-second range.

Long Distance.
The calculation of the route for Dortmund 'Nörre Lyngvig (Denmark) about 660 to 730km (setting cars) takes the TP 134 seconds with the old PNA 61 seconds.
For the same trip but with ferry at Gluckstadt car in the TP needs 134 seconds and 150 seconds when the camper, compared with the old PNA 61 seconds (PKW).
Mid range.
Do-Kranenburg TP 110 seconds with the old PNA 20 seconds.
Short-haul
Do about 16 km.
8 seconds TP to PNA 9 seconds.

Other routes have been tried, the TravelPilot needs usually 2x to 5x longer than my very old device.
The TP with Windows 6.0 Corel has in the medium and long-range always a much longer calculation time than the PNA from Navigon, an old unit with Windows 5.0 Corel

- According to the user manual TP has three possible settings for the driving mode:
Quick, short, economical.
Is not so, my copy has only quick or short.
The corresponding button will be operated as described otherwise in the user manual.
Shortly, this means you mitberechnen on all the above routes every road even if it is just a few meters shorter than the adjacent highway.
So of ~ 700km Dortmund to Nörre Lyngvig (Denmark) 100derte Km are routed via highway.

Note: It makes sense really only the 'fast' setting.
To let the opportunity to calculate an alternative route is because not very helpful but a step forward. If you use the zoom function to check parts of the track after a short non-operation on the map skip the navigation back to the basic view. It's frustrating.

- Can be divided on the choice of route but it was interesting that the TP in practice almost always yielded a significantly longer distance than the old PNA.
Note:
We will keep the device despite its limitations (the experience with the devices of other manufacturers were even worse), we will get an idea about the previously route including alternatives to Google and navigate to the anguish via points.
Our equipment is being scrapped by the way only because there is no longer any up-date, replacement batteries, or the manufacturer.

- The menu for trailer, car, truck, camper (cars), camper (truck), is different from the description.
+ Another menu 'vehicle data' which provides a weights and measures has your camper. Several vehicles are defined among other things, different levels of hazardous materials transportation. Another bar is used to switch off the truck functions.
,
+ There are restrictions such as bridge heights, approved total weight of the respective road, etc., when setting data camper or truck data into account.
- For example, although 'locked truck' for the restriction does not apply to the camper the map in the vicinity is formally zugeflastert with the general truck blocking shield. Most were 16 Sperschilder on the displayed secondary roads.
A 500-meter road may also in tiny letters have 8 road sign displaying the permissible total weight on this road. The sign for the bridge Unterfahrt is thereby overlooked smooth.
Note:
It is worthwhile to stop and then sometimes on-site car the mode switch to get without eye cancer continue.
- Once again: With the labeled blocking shields the font is so small that virtually unreadable.

+ A test in Dortmund showed the two were very old bridge Under rides round 3 and 2.2 meters properly.
- However, I have thirty-year-old subway bridge Unterfahrt rammed straight in our residential area with 3.3 meters height.

- Maps: The maps of TP are coarser structure than with my old PNA. That is in the vicinities are less detailed information on terrain features (eg roads) and road names. Can be displayed single street names are missing but sometimes. And connected by tapping the road with a sweeping motion over the whole map. Why why is nowhere I have found no logic. To define for tour preparation example over the map in the vicinity Poi's the TP is not so suitable. Especially since he can no obstructions or blockages on the calculated route. He can only an alphabetically or by km all disturbances in traffic area ordered at once Show.

~ The lane assistant is shown very small above the lower main menu.
~ A representation of the next turning situation as in the PNA 7000T is not programmed. There, the bending process is by arrow shown and very helpful at the same time with the arrow still the next turn.
~ Is an advertisement whether truck camper or car turned lacking in the navigation display. Instead, there is an identification of the economically correct driving style with tiny colored diodes in the lower driving menu.

++ Now a cherry on top. This-reviewed by me TP device comes bundled with the data of the ADAC camping or parking space leader 2014th
Therefore (and for the truck calculations) it costs about twice the normal car unit.
How and whether this data can be refreshed with an up-date, however, is nowhere.
But ..... A super functional with travel arrangements.
Erlebtes Example: We are tired out from Navi after a visit to the Zugvögelweiden in Kranenburg for local pitch. But he is more or few flooded.
Double-tap and we are ordered by distance additional parking spaces in the area indicated. With route, the fare, opening times, telephone, mail, etc. provide all essential information.
Another tap and the route is calculated. Just great. Was us the extra charge worth it.
However, the function of search on the likewise present is poorly described and by the logic more than to get used to
--------------------
In summary:
The device gives the impression as the manufacturers would have been easy to price the software for a navigation device in order. The contractor then has the software from well-known, to selling, neuprogrammierten components assembled without a comprehensive overview of the current possibilities to have. Perhaps on account of patent problems.

Nevertheless, the TP seems to be the best device for me as a camper driver without DIN-double shaft at the moment in comparison.

So overall 3 stars; more out of pity than of satisfaction and yet to my other experiences for today Navi still a good evaluation!

Supplement 03.05.2015
If you change your TP the vehicle you need cumbersome before driving change in three menus the entries.
For example, changing from yellow sticker on car camper green sticker.
1. Choose: Type of vehicle
2. Choose: The plaque color (Low Emission Zone)
3. Select: Switch off the truck routing.
Only then will you get charged a reasonable driving distance.

Supplement 03.07.2015
Just one day after the end of the 30 day return period froze on an inner-city short distance the image. The sound was more accurate.
After stopping and recalculating the route the reverse direction was only shown; which in turn could only be remedied by switching to three D.

Supplement 30.04.2015
On the trip from Dortmund to Bad Westernkotten the TP signals a fault 'Slow traffic' between Werl and Soest.
Since I have preprogrammed manual control asks an inserted menu to YES = NO = Continue or recalculating.
I press YES = Continue. In the next 20 km to 3 km of traffic disruption yet this menu appears 5 times. If I do not fast enough press YES is introduced, according to the TP message still recalculate.
5 times absolute distraction from the road in front of me.

Therefore, note the following for any inclined Buyer:
State of the art 2006: My old PNA had six settings for traffic problems. The most important thing: 'traffic information on the calculated route'.
So you could before beginning the journey check the distances and adapt his starting time.
Next there was the PNA meaningful possibilities of retrieval of 'All traffic messages' or 'jam' or 'disabled' or 'bad weather', etc.
All this, the TP does not, he can only all reported traffic incidents in the country on 'Order', then the sub-menu 'alphabetically' or 'by distance' list.
The execution of these disorders can be the submenu 'Detour' program on: 'Only Show' or 'automatically recalculate' or 'manual control'

For completeness, I would like to mention:
I have found no setting of TCM for the TP. No adjustment as hold transmitter, hold frequency Automatic frequency, no alternative station search option manually as Uralt Navis, no indication of reception strength.
When TP You can program only from the main menu TCM On or Off.
In the above-described driving the display of TCM symbol is changed several times from blue to red. A description of this I have not found. If Red could mean not receiving that be an explanation for the above-described multiple Menu insertions.

Why while driving without programmed route, so in pure map display, the vehicle icon is prominently displayed beside the streets:
We do not know, you do not put in it ........ and this is true for many functions of the TravelPilot.
Therefore our old Navi is still ready for operation on board from now, the new TP you can then still use a good shaving mirror.

Supplement 05.30.2015
-In The first major travel planning turned the intermediate objectives without km and Zeitanmgaben be included out. It is only the total distance in kilometers and the total travel time angegeben.Also despite the per pitch or camping guide any meaningful planning with stages possible.

-On The trip from Dortmund to Ascheberg was offered 30 areas consistently the drive over highway through long pace. The alternative route considered then for half the distance traveled a detour through other villages and the other half completely free motorway. I then programmed manually via intermediate targets the fastest route.

In conjunction with the other deficiencies described devaluation on 2 star.

Addendum June 2015
Good day,
now pending the Supplement of the last trip in June 2015th
When the tour route calculation multiply the distance from Stade-Bremhaven-Zeven charged twice.
With manual traffic jam avoidance Steurung a demand comes, and then as fast but switched to bypass that you can not respond.
The Navi has managed the we left in Bremen by the A1 and then after 20 minutes in the same place aufzufahren again.

My wife observed since the traffic of our old Navis with the indication of the noise along the route and asked me for a hammer to smash the Blaupunkt device.

Partly because of accident hazards caused by the forced setting changes in bypass menu while driving is massively increased risk of accidents.
Also by the same although many warning signs on a single stretch of road which are shown detectable but because of their small font and with a mix of height and weight limit is not.

Clear opinion: Stay away, do not buy too dangerous.
