POIs and Camera locations out by 200m with TT5

baggaa

wondering if anyone has this strange problem that I am experiencing with TT5 and the Points of Interest and the camera locations. I have noticed that when ever I am notified of a POI or camera the location seems to be approximately out by 200m. That means I am notified of the POI and/or camera after I have passed them.

Strange.. I am using a SysonChip BT GPS receiver and do not appear to have any other problems.

Are there any controls to change the Datum your GPS sends positions in? 600 feet is a typical error between WGS84 and OSGB36.

Not aware of any of the controls that you mention. As I indicated this only seems to be a problem on the POIs and the speed camera locator. Does not seem to be an issue with the actual TT5.

If you are finding that TT doesn't notify you of POIs until too late, I found that to be a symptom of the TT5 POI bug. If you hide the POIs using the Hide POI Icon, but still keep warnings active, the warnings work as advertised.
