Garmin nuvi 660 and camera database version

[Nick_Russell]

Hello, I would like some advice. I have recently bought a unit from Globalpositioningsystems. This should come with a camera database from Pocketgpsworld.

How can I tell if this is installed and what version it is. In System/About there is an entry "GPS SW Version 2.90 - is this yours? There are also lots of entries for Cyclops that comes with the unit.

Another question, if I have more that one installed (eg Cyclops and GPS) how do I tell the 660 which one to use?

Help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Nick

There's no easy way to tell exactly which version of the database they installed. However, the System\About is the software installed within the Nuvi from Garmin, not from PGPSW.

The Cyclops information is the Garmin safety camera database sample.

If you go to Settings\Proximity Alerts you can untick the Garmin version and then you will be using the PGPSW one. If you don't do this, the 660 will actually use both, and alert you to both, which might be overkill.

To tell if it is installed, go to Where To? Custom POIs and you should have entries beginning pocketgps.
