Hi tiger1,
to the forum!
The use of our POI Capture software with TomTom v5.420 has been discussed in several different threads.
Unfortunately, there will be no version of POI Capture software that will
work with TomTom v5.420. This is down to TomTom, as the 5.420 update is not suitable for TomTom GO devices running applications based on the TomTom SDK (Software Development Kit). The SDK uses application versions 5.202 or 5.203. POI Capture is an application that is based on the TomTom SDK. This is also true for every other application based on the TomTom SDK.
Once you have installed, set up, and used the PocketGPSWorld camera database for a while on your TomTom SatNav system. You may want to share and send in details of cameras yourself. You can do this by using the PocketGPSWorld POI Capture utility:
The PocketGPSWorld POI Capture utility.
You do not need the PocketGPSWorld POI Capture utility on your TomTom SatNav system in order to use the PocketGPSWorld camera database. However if you want to send in camera details then POI Capture makes the process of recording cameras much easier on TomTom Navigator and GO (original, 300, 500, and 700). At the moment POI Capture will not work with TomTom Rider, One, and mobile. This is for a technical reason, which we hope, will soon be rectified by TomTom.
The above guides may look lengthy and complicated when first seen. However if you grab a cup of coffee and read each one thoroughly then they should make sense as they have been written in a step-by-step way, for ease of reading.

Welcome to the forum Tiger
To clarify further:
The speed camera "software" is not software at all, just a database of locations in TomTom's POI format. It is a collection of files and picture icons that you download from this site (for free this month, but scandalously for £2 next month). It will work on ANY version of the TomTom's firmware.
The "Capture" application is a way of simplifying the recording of new cameras (although you can still do it manually). It is that application which won't work on firmware other than v5.202.
