Our Camelot did not come with this GPS Nav System, but I did research it before our purchase. You can find the disc update information on pages 42-46 of the owner's manual or you can go to their web site here.

Seems to be a Europe focused company.

Update on VDO Dayton, the supplier of data is not going to continue with any support or updated disc for the products. All previous disc are gone and none are being built. Plenty of Europe info but none for US. You can still purchase new units but they are expensive and do not compete with Garmin etc.on price. Out of luck. Monaco put these in the MH and did not support the system. US dealer is Continental and they will take your name and number but tell you they probably will never call. YUCK.

I took factory delivery of my coach and I would not accept the VDO gps system. I left with a Garmin GVN 52 that plays through the Aladdin system. My friend with an 08 Scepter received a credit from Monaco to change his VDO to a Garmin and we switched his out. Other than installing the roof antenna and running the wire down the A pillar it was just plug and play. GVN 52 has been updated to a GVN 53 now and is as low as $415.00 on line. It has an intuitive remote, and is super easy to use. An example is looking for a nearby campground. 5 ckicks of the remote and 7 seconds later up pop a list of campgrounds, by distance. Click on one and the phone number is listed if you wish to call, and one more click and up pops the directions. On mine I downloaded some custom POI's, Flying J's, WalMarts.etc. to a SD memory card, plugged it into the Garmin and saved them. An option now displays custom POI's that I can use to select which custom group I want to see.
So, if you can't get updates on the VDO, you now have an option.
