i have the red light cameras loaded on my garmin drive assist 50
when approaching a red light camera it shows the speed as 35 khl when its actually supposed to be 50 .
im assuming i can just edit the .csv file and replace the value .
i used poi loader to load the .csv file , but what folder is it actually installed to on the gps , i selected internal , but i am unable to locate it.
Hmmm ...
The file will have been put in the POI folder, note the csv file is converted to a gpi file by POI loader. As for the reading are you sure you selected the correct speed setting in POI loader?

Seeing that x-28 is in Winnipeg where everything is in metric, I assume that maybe his GPS is not set for metric but rather is set up for miles.

Red light camera?
Are we talking about the red light camera file or the speed camera file?

Good catch. the RLFile
Good catch. the RLFile doesn't have speed limits in it.

That was my thought too.

35 kph is 28 mph
50 kph is 31 mph
80 kph is 50 mph
I would think that if the device settings were mph and not kph you would be seeing "31 mph" not "50".
I never get lost, but I do explore new territory every now and then.
Speed & Proximity information in csv file
Garmin has a support page describing poi csv file format with speed and proximity information: http://www8.garmin.com/products/poiloader/creating_custom_po...

If you are using the Poi Factory speed camera file. Report the file to moderator for correction. So all members can benefit from the correct setting. http://www.poi-factory.com/contact

I'm very newbie and having the same situation. I checked the poi loading everything is set for km display. I also restarted the devices but getting alert for miles not for KM! I check my nuvi and drivesmart not as are showing same. I checked the CSV feed file, here in one field speed is written as @18.6 which is mile of 30 km. Then I load the file as feet and mile unit. Now checked speed is showing almost correctly. Speed limit is showing 29KM in limit area and 30 KM showing on upper alert area
So we need to load file with feet and mile while loading via POI loader.
