How do I know I got camera DB

Hi
New Nuvi350, downloaded camera database and used garmin POI loader to upload it, no errors reported as far as I know. Noticed a new setting in system settings "proximity alert" which is turned on.

Now how do I know that its actually loaded, as I have driven round and passed few fixed camera, but nothing happened!!

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

Apparently some systems only advise you of the cameras if you are speeding on the approach to them

thanks for reply.. should have said that i tested that theory already..had to break :-) pretty sharpish as nuvi kept quiet.
And that speed camera has been there for at least 3 years that i know..

Hi

garminpoi.com site( thanks to the owner)...

the nuvi will show up speed cams in 'my locations' and then 'custom points'

should be under the file 'pocket_gpsw_gatso...' etc

oh ok.. does that mean I need to install it again.. ?
Curious..as garmin POI loader said " bla blah..POI loaded"
Will it overwrite my other POI file?

Thanks

When you load POIs you need to load them all in one go. If you want to add a POI to some that are already installed then you need to install the old POIs with the new ones.
