How to Use Text to Speech on StreetPilot i5

 
Tue, 03/27/2007 - 10:31pm

Hello,
I loaded my i5 with Red Light Camera data and it accurately displays a textual alert on the screen.

However I have two problems:
1. I also uploaded a mp3 with the red light camera poi. But i don't get the speech warning when the visual alerts are displayed. Is the text to speech functionality available on the i5?

2. I loaded two POI files one Red Light and the other my custom points. However, all my custom points are now showing a textual alert on the screen as if they were red light pois? Any suggestions? Should I load the POI files separately?

Thanks
Kirt

How did you load them. If the name of your custom points file has a number in it, it might be considered as a proximity alert if loaded automatically. If you load your files with POI Loader 2.4.xx(beta), there is a manual option and you can choose to add or delete proximity alerts for each file.

Proximity Alerts

I loaded them with Garmin POI Loader.
Both CSVs in the same folder. I used manual updates for each file. I will check to verify I am using POI Loader 2.4.xx beta.

Thanks

Proximity Alert

Thanks that worked.
I installed the POI Loader version 2.4.xx and was able to select proximity alerts for only the red light camera poi file.
