Checked the links tendriver, and kept both tabs open while i copied over all of my .bmp & .ov2 plus my old poi.dat & mapsettings.cfg, ...... I am amazed this is the first time it has gone without any glitches, I never had to use Home, just turned on the TT and did a quick goto poi of my own and it worked perfect, all speedcams workings as well.
I have had my speed cams set up in way so that they are poi's this way i can get the TT to tell me in advance 75 yrds for a 40 mph, 100yrds for a 50 mph, ect ect..... i'm wondering if i need to keep this like this with the new speedcam premium files? or could i just delete these now. as I read in the readme that "* These cams DO NOT show up as POIs. The alerts are set in TomTom Services."
I can see a set of six icons, report safety cam, update safety cam, change warning prefs, disable alerts, *this one has a red circle and a white x inside it* enable auto updates, enable report button.
I have a feeling that the premium cams are not even on? would I be correct??
"original instructions came from pocketgpsworld"
[Please Register or Login to download file] How I remember doing it before was to go to "manage pois" "add poi" lets call it "UK gatso 20"
"warn when near poi" tap "UK gatso 20" change it to 100 yards, choose "Type in your own warning" and then manually type in "Warning! Speed Camera, Speed Limit Is, 20 M P H" the ! and , and spaces are necessary otherwise the tts gets it all wrong.
This is why I was worried about having to retype all the cams, well over an hours typing.
And I've had to do that about 4 or 5 times in the past.
Advice would be a true blessing, I just need to know if the premium cams give tts or just a noise (like a beep or whatever).
Thanks again for your time and patience....

Just did a quick demo route which I know has 4 speed cams on route, plus a set of traffic light cams.
Two of the speed cams that were on the opposite side of the road were highlighted as speed cams, even though they are not on the route, and also the traffic light cam was highlighted even though it pointed in the opposite direction.
I tried the "warn when near poi" and tried "on route" on and off, but it made no difference.
So I must be doing something wrong. all cams are working but it seems only as POIs.
So do i need to delete all of the POIs that i have typed in and turn on something within "tomtom services"
I'm hoping you can understand what it is that I am trying to explain, and anybody's help would be very much appreciated as this seems to be the only thing that doesn't seem to be working correctly.
