Which uk ones to install

Hi all

Just joined the speed cam database and wondered which UK ones to install on my new TomTom Go 530?

Consolidated by type: Contains one file for each type of speed camera.

Single File: Contains all the speed cameras in a single file irrespective of type.

Speed Zoned: Contains the speed cameras in individual files for each speed limit and each camera type.

Thanks

Hi Mike,

The choice is soley yours, depending on your needs or ways you like to be alerted.

Personally, i get the "Speed Zoned: Contains the speed cameras in individual files for each speed limit and each camera type. "
I have them all set to warn on route.
It is always worth knowing what camera your up against too, hence why i get these onces.

However, i.e, if your a cabby, you might just prefer the "Single File: Contains all the speed cameras in a single file irrespective of type. "
Which you can set to warn when near one, as you might always not be bothered to set up a route, just have it on just because.

Hope that helps

Hi

I have just downloaded the latest speed camera database and installed it with no problems. However, the redlight alarms only sound for traffic lights with cameras

I have seen, perhaps an older version of the speed camera database that warns of all traffic lights.

just wondering if I have missed anything or there has been a change to the way redlights are alarmed in the new version.

Also where do I get the download for the camera capture application/plugin for a PPC (WM6) running TT6?

thanks in advance

No, you haven't missed anything - the database only warns of traffic lights with redlight/redspeed cameras:

redlight - activated when the traffic light turns red

redspeed - as above, and doubles as a speed camera when the traffic lights are green

We've never had a database that recorded every redlight. Personally I have misgivings about offering redlight cameras at all but as some now have a dual redlight/speed function it was decided that they should remain.

Quite why you would need to be alerted for every redlight escapes me though?

Its an MWg Zinc-II which I mentioned in This Thread, it is time to update that thread though having used the new toy for around 6 weeks, there are some good points and bad - Mike
