Posted: Wed Dec 16, 2009 12:08 pm Post subject: Not getting certain camera warnings!?!?!?!? |
|
|
I have a Garmin 1340T and have successfully installed the PGPSW Speed Camera database and voice warnings
Everything seemed to be working fine (thanks to all the resources and helpful people here ) but I have run into a bit of an issue
There is a stretch of road near me that has a mobile camera site situated a few hundreds in advance of a fixed GATSO site
When I approach I get the warning for the Mobile site but do not get a warning for the fixed GATSO (luckily I know it is there but this could be an issue elsewhere - or for other people approaching this particular site!)
I know that the fixed camera is in the database as I get the warning if I travel in the opposite direction
I have therefore concluded that the issue is down to a "clash" with the mobile warning and fixed warning - i.e. I am not getting the fixed camera warning as the mobile camera warning is already being given at the time the fixed warning should be given
Is it possible to give "priority" to fixed camera warnings so that they "cut through" mobile warnings
I intend to install and have a play with ASH's camera manager to change the warning distances between Mobile & Fixed cameras to ensure they don't clash, which I hope will resolve the issue - I will report back if I solve it
Has anyone else had this issue?
Any thoughts? |

it's down, entirely, to how garmin handle 3rd party poi alerts. ash 10's manager MAY help the issue as you can shorten the warnings - i find the default garmin ones are far too long anyway!
well, let us know how you get on!

I use Ashs camera warnings and have a warning time of 40 seconds for mobiles but only 15 seconds for Gatsos , works well , mind there is one place I go where I see about 8 cameras on the screen at once , gets quite noisy then. _________________ Asus Zenfone 2 twin sim, Garmin Zumo 550, 660 and pocketgps speed camera database
I keep on learning but they invent new things faster ,How do I keep up ? |
