Can't help there, but you are aware that the newer TomToms won't take the PGPSW camera database the way you would want it to, aren't you? |

I.m fully aware that a new TomTom cannot accept the PGPSW database but that is not that important to me. The main thing I want is the zoom at junctions etc mainly for driving in Germany where there are far less speed cameras to worry about. _________________ Dave R (h5djr)

Just saying, in case you were 'into' speed cams. A few people have bought first and asked later, only to be disappointed at the answers. |

Hi h5djr,
According to the TomTom GO manual, you can select Automatic zoom to change settings for the automatic zoom in Guidance view when you approach a turn or a junction.
Click on the above link for the relevant part of the manual.

Well having tried a new TT device I think I'll stick to my trusty XL Live IQ Routes for the time being. I mainly use the TT for speed cameras and will continue to load it with the PGPSW database.
For navigation I have the latest Audi navigation system in my A3, which whilst it does seen rather complex at first at least I can find destinations on Google on my PC and send them to the car with just a click.
The Audi system cannot take the PGPSW database,hence my retaining of the TT XL. _________________ Dave R (h5djr)
