Anyone else had problems getting one of these to work? All I get is a red light and nothing else. It's mounted right at the front of the dash top, where it meets the window.

Is your screen one with a heater element in it?
If the thing can't see the sky, it cause problems.

Also, have any of you guys noticed that if you come up on a second camera very quickly, you don't get a lot of warning - stil got the green "count down" LEDS on, and the REDs don't start until almost on top of the 2nd Gatso..... bit of a software fault I think.

Carl, what range is yours set at? Mine's at 0.4 and seems O.K. in those instances.

I haven't got a heated front screen but the car I've got it in at the moment is very new (Toyota Avensis Verso - stop laughing at the back!) and it may have one of these UV protected screens, though the manual makes no mention of it. I'm reluctant to hardwire it onto the bike until I'm sure it works.

I've heard nothing but good stuff about Morpheous, but I can't get through to them on the 'phone. Will keep trying.

Cabbage go ahead and hard wire it to the bike, you only actually wire in the cradle so if the unit is faulty thats all that will be exchanged, also Morpheous have recently moved offices so that may account for the ph probs try: 0870 2401701/2. Although I must add that my unit appears to be getting slower in the time taken to aquire a fix on start up so I may need to phone them myself
