They should appear in the same way as they did using TTN5, how many other Custom POI files have you put in the same map folder? - there is a limit of 100 Custom Categories, if you exceed this the device will decide which POI files it wants to let you see.
You have put the files in to the correct folder, if you go to Change Preferences/ Manage POI/ Warn When near POI and scroll through the list do the PGPSW speed camera POI's show up in the list - Mike |

Hi thanks for the speedy reply just to confirm
I downloaded the eur speed zoned cams and dropped them into the western eur folder ...i did the warn by bit and then went to browse map expecting to see them ala ttn5 and they do not appear on the map...
Ant suggestions to get these seen would be great as this is what i mainly use this for
Thanks again |

The EUR files are for mainland Europe. For UK Cameras you need the UK files, these still go into your Western Europe Map folder.
This is explained on the download page. The files are separated in this way as EUR files are set-up for KPH and UK for MPH.

Hi Thanks for that i have downloaded the uk cams and put them in th W euro folder but they do noy appear on the map when you browse ...do they appear on the map ttn6? like they do in ttn5...does my ipaq have to be connected to my gps for them to activate.....i am trying not to assume with this upgrade as so far nothing has been easy.......the other thing is ...is the speed cam database in a oner ie when i download it are all the cams there....and not just the updates from the last month..
Thanks again |

Have you configured them to show on the map? You need to ensure they are all 'ticked' in Manage POI's or whatever it was called in v6?
Each month's update is the full release and overwrites the previous one.

| You did unzip the download on the PC to produce a set of files which should be copied to the map folder rather than just putting the download straight in to the map folder as a single zipped up file? - Mike |
