Maybe it will be clearer to explain that one is for the Approach (1st) alert and the other for the Overspeed (2nd) alert. |

Ash10 - thanks for a superb piece of software! Used it with my new Nuvi 660 and it works perfectly.
Just wish the Nuvi could discriminate between co-located or closely located fixed and mobile cameras by just warning about one of them so I don't get a quadruple "bong"! _________________ Tony

If you mean that you've got two copies running in your system tray, just quit them both (using the Quit button in the settings window) - then run the application again (just the once, mind). |

Hi Ash,
Thanks for all the work you've put into the Camera Manager. Is there any way to alter the overspeed warning? I used to get a fairly constant "DING DING", but now have the warning repeating itself approximately every 5 secs. I'm not sure if this is a feature of your utility or not?
Regards, Ian. |

You can disable either/both of the approach and overspeed warnings, by setting the alert time to zero.
What you can't do however, is vary how often the overspeed warning sounds - that's dependant on your particular model of Garmin. On the i2/3/5 this is around once every second, on the Nuvi it seems to be nearer every five seconds or so. |

Many thanks Ash.
I've got a Nuvi, and it did give me an overspeed warning every second or so, but this has now changed to every 5 seconds. It must've changed with one of the Garmin updates.
Regards, Ian. |

i have a garmin i2 and am having problems with ash's software. I have windows xp and have downloaded the camera manager but it just says camera manager idle. When i try to load POI's from the garmin folder it says there aren't any in the folder.
i am using software version 3.20
Also a question- when i do load the POIs that the camera manager downloads onto the unit, will it automatically delete or overwrite ones i have loaded on before?? |

Open the settings window and have a look at what is the latest database version, and the date it was last checked. |

In that case, Camera Manager has successfully downloaded the database.
If Camera Manager is idle, and is not reminding you that updates are ready - then it must think that you've already updated your Garmin (it does this whenever you run POI Loader).
Go to the settings window, change one of the timings slightly, then click on the OK button.
You should then start getting reminders to update (as you've effectively changed the database by specifying different timings). |

thanks ash. I have now changed the timings, but as yet i have no reminders to update, is this normal?
I have previously manually downloaded a speed camera database onto the unit, do you think this is what is is detecting?
Also do any new updates automatically replace any previous ones? |
