Speed Cameras and red light Cameras in AZ

 

I recently made a trip to Arizona. Before leaving I downloaded the New speed and red light files (19'th of November 2008). For some reason at every red light and speed camera,my nuvi 750 would start ringing and alert me that the speed was 12MPH. If I look at the file (Speed Camera) It show's anywhere between 30 and 75 MPH What is the problem. Nowhere do i see 12 MPH in the file.

Thanks

Check the file names for all your POI ans see if any have numbers in them. This is usually the cause.

12 MPH Alert

This is the name of the file in my POI File

"Speed-Cameras Update Nov 19 2008"

Camera files

The files in the zip are Redlight-Cameras and Speed-Cameras.CSV. This is what should have been unzipped and put into the file for POI Loader. Having numbers in the name of any POI file can cause a speed alert to be set equal to the number in the file name.

If you manually go through the speed camera file, you can put the @ sign in front of the speed which will cause an alert if you are going above that speed when you are near the camera.

Since you are getting a 12 mile an hour alert it could be taking the 19 and converting it from kilometers to MPH.

Here's what it should

Here's what the file should read on the cvs
arrow speed camera 65 mph .02*** for example
This should be in the third column only. Anything else will cause you to have probs.

If you add @ in between the camera and 65 then it will alert you starting at 58 mph if you loaded it in manuel mode on the poi loader

The number after the mph is camera ID
