|

Help please... Since upgrading to CP6 I cannot get the speed camera's to work. Everything else announces OK, Garages, hospitals etc but no cams.
I did the pocket PC6 D/L from here...

I still cannot get it to work. Any ideas please.
.
Thanks

- Download the latest zipfile release from this site, not the ALK site.
- Look in the "\single file version\ov2 bmp files" directory for the .OV2 and .BMP files, and rename them to "Speed Cameras.*".
- Use ActiveSync to copy the two files to the "\Save" directory on your PDA.
- Restart CP6 and wait a couple of minutes for the files to be imported and deleted. This is a one-off wait.
- Go into POI Alert settings and make sure that "Custom\Speed Cameras" is ticked.
- On your desktop PC, copy the same files into the "\Program Files\CoPilot\PocketPC6\EU\Save" directory, and restart the desktop program.
NB: If you import the files with more than one name, you will have to delete all of the custom POI's first, by deleting all of the "aopoi.*" files from the "\Save" directories. _________________ Ian

or the really easy way if to just copy the ov2 files direct from the camera database file to the save folder on the sd card _________________ currently using aponia truck navigation on windows phone. Good bye IOS don't let the door hit you on the way out .

Thanks All. I think I have done it correct as per above. I'm not the most
technical minded doing these things.
Is there a way to know if it will work without having to do a journey and approach a camera.

- Go into GPS settings and switch off the live GPS.
- Open an existing GPS track file for a day where the first trip passed cameras, and you know what the destination was.
- Set up a trip with that destination.
- Go back into GPS settings and start the track playback.
- Close the GPS settings and watch the track playback at a speed that you can set in GPS settings.

Thanks for the prompt reply Ian. Another query... When I go into Open GPS track then into Co-Pilot_UK all I get for the track name is Co-Pilot_UK_Sample.gps and nothing with old trips. Any ideas.

I think the actual folder is "/my documents/gpstracks" on your card. _________________ Ian
