Strange measurement provided when receiving a Red light camera alert with Nuvi 360

 

Happy Holidays to All!!

I have been using the Red Light camera POI in my Nuvi 360 for some time but cannot figure out why the distance to a red light camera comes up with a strange message shock . As I am approaching a camera I have my unit programmed with a custom verbal warning and a message that flashes across the top which reads "Alert: Red Light Camera.025ds" Does anyone know what unit of measurement ".025ds" is suppose to represent? I will also receive other strange units of measurement like "Alert: Red Light Camera.01wp6" or "alert: Red Light Camera.01z1f" as I approach other red light camera's. The positioning is always accurate but I would like my unit to provide me with accurate distance information if possible. Any help in figuring this issue out is greatly appreciated.

Thank You grin

I assume that you followed the above link and understand that the number is coming from the name field & not a measurement?
