Welcome to the forum Andy, when you say speed cameras are they the files from this site? and also what hardware/ software are you trying to use the files with? - Mike

This site doesn't support the use of POI Edit for any of the POI downloads, you need to be a site member, logged in and download the required file type using your Internet Browser, the download is then unzipped to produce the actual POI files which can be copied to the device.

Can you be more specfic as to the software you intend using the speed camera files with as I have not heard of "smart sd software" before? - Mike

The instructions to download and install the camera database to various devices are HERE where there is a large green and yellow table showing every model and with clickable links to the specific instructions for that model.

Unfortunately, it would appear that the Navman iCN v2 is one of the few models that cannot use the database, but so long as you have the v3, you should be fine.

So once you have subscribed to the members area of the site, just download the ".asc" file format version and follow the instructions HERE (especially the note in red halfway down!)

I had a Navman 635 and used the PGPSW speed cameras before they started charging.

I had trouble with the files.
If I LOADED & SAVED WITH Excel they wouldn't load into Navman. You must open them with Notepad only.

Also I had to search & replace the @ symbol with AT
I did Email PGPSW at the time but they didn't change the database format

Hope this helps.
