Can an XXL 550 be set so direction of travel is up?

Hal_Giles

I'm new to this uinit, like it well enough, but the screen is set with North at the top. I'd prefer to have the direction of travel at the top.

Hi and welcome to the forum where TomTom users help other users.

I think you mean a Rider 550 for Motorbikes.
When you plan a route it was shown in the Routviev

To change in the Drivingviev tap on the arrow above the + and -

Then you can see the Drivingviev

Hi
@Hal_Giles

If you Tap on the direction of Travel Icon, above the + and - Signs
To toggle between the North-up Overview Planning Map and the Driving Map view chosen in the Setting menus i.e... 2D (In direction of travel) or 3D

The Pointer for the North-up Planning Map is wider and more squat

You will see the direction of Travel Icon is thinner more pointed in the 2D in direction of travel or 3D Driving view

It is in fact a XXL550 vehicle unit, that came with a suction cup windshield mount. That being said, your advice was correct, and it is now running direction up. Thanks.
