Yes, there should be no problem.
Instructions are here
(ignore the fact it doesn't mention the XXL in the title!)
But do be aware that they never got properly updated to include the set-up for the (now standard) voice warnings. The original instructions for those are still here, but quite hard to read.
The relevant bits are:
| Quote: | Select the first camera in the list, if asked whether you want to delete or remove the warning answer NO.
You should now be asked to select the warning distance, followed by the Warn Only if POI on route – please set-up these options as per your normal preference, remember everyone will use different settings dependent upon how they use the device.
Note: You will be asked to choose a sound but will not be offered any options, this is normal. You will be asked 'Is this the sound you want?'. You should answer Yes on this screen. If you do, you will then see the warning distance screen and can proceed as normal.
If you mistakenly answer No then you may get a message saying No Photographs and the unit will freeze. If you have mistakenly done this, simply reset the device and start again, this time answering Yes when prompted.
Now repeat the above, setting up the POI warning for EACH camera category you have installed to the device. |

One last warning... I don't know if there was ever an "XXL2" model made, but if you have one of those, all bets are off!
They made an "XL" (same as the XXL but with a smaller screen) and the camera database and warnings work fine on that. But then they brought out a "simplified" (i.e. ruined) version called the "XL2" and you have to fiddle about trying to install a custom menu on it to get the necessary features back.
