|
|
I purchased a second i3 for my wife from Maplin. It came with speed camera database disc similar but not identical to the one that came with the first unit.
It downloaded uneventfully, Route maps work perfectly but NO speed warnings despite POI apparently downloading 695(I think) camera sites
I tried uploading the new disc onto my original i3 (working but in need of an update) and again, despite apparently downloading all the sites the warnings on the i3 itself almost ceased to function ( only one alert between mid Kent and Bournemouth.
What have I done wrong. I am quite happy to pay for updates but don’t quite know how to go about it. |

The Maplin disc contains our database under licence but i suspect it will be well out of date by now.
I'm assuming you are using POILoader and following the instructions to the letter? _________________ Darren Griffin |

Hmm it is always possible that Maplin's have a problem with one of their CD masters I suppose. _________________ Darren Griffin |
