Red light cameras

Yes, you can load POI files from the POI Factory onto the 255. The only difference is that the 255 does not have an mp3 player so if you want to load any of the custom audio alert files to go with the POI file, you will have to use wav formatted audio files.

Thanx for the info. That's great

Very new to the GPS Stuff...How do I get the audio file loaded. I loaded the red light and speed cameras
also the speed traps.

The answer varies depending on the make/model GPS you have, so we need that information first. If its a Garmin, it depends on if your model does or does not have an mp3 player.

But an excellent place to start if you have a Garmin GPS, is to read Motorcycle Momma's tutorial on loading custom audio files:

I keep the current red light poi's on both my 680 and my wife's 350. They both work great.

Thanks, I have a 755t and yes it does have mp3.

Since you model has mp3 support, the audio will load via POIloader if you have it in the same directory as the .csv file, with the exact same name including upper and lower case but with the .mp3 extension rather than .csv extension. If this isn't working for you the most likely problem is an incorrect name; be sure that the MS "feature" to hide file extensions for known file types is turned off and check the mp3 file name to be sure that it is correct and does not have a double extension.

I got the GPS to except one file to red light cameras, It will not except speed trap or speed camera files.

It will accept all POI files that you have, but they have to be loaded at the same time, any new poi.gpx that is created on the GPS overwrites any old one. There is an alternate work around for that if you wish, rename poi.gpx to something else and then you can download more POIs without overwriting the old file, all will work as long as the file name ends in .gpx (the file extension that POI loader creates).

One small correction.

POI Loader will create file named POI.GPI.

Sorry...It did except the files but did not except
the audio files.

has some great information about using wave files on the 200 series.
