It's not one we are aware of... (see the "compatibility table HERE.
Having said that, it might work, or it might be a re-badged system from another company which works.
The first questions we need to ask (or you do!) are
1. Can it accept "third-party" or "user" POIs (points of interest)?
2. If it can, does it have some sort of proximity warning system for them? _________________ "Settling in nicely" ;-) |

The spec says that the Nav is iGO Primo on SD card. So yes you will be able to add our cameras, and they are directional on the iGO navsoft |

Firstly, with the standard skin, you have to have a sat fix otherwise the setting does not show.
Then it's at something like Menu, Settings, Warnings, Speed camera warnings. I have a custom skin, so it may be slightly different on yours.
As an alternative you could try RTFM here |

Hi
Here's the problem I'm encountering....
In the speed camera database that comes with the system there are 2 files,
speedcam.spdb
SpeedcamUpdates.spud
They're located in a folder called speed cameras under content.
If they're in there - I can select speed cameras - and I can select warnings etc..., which is fine, this however must be igo propriety database - as it's not directional, and doesn't warn of the type of camera etc, that I've been using for many years.
If, however, I delete them, and replace them with the PocketGPSworld database, then I can't even see the speed Camera warnings showing up to be selected. |

You copy the PGPSW speedcam .txt file into the folder that you have mentioned. When iGO starts, it should 'hang' for a few seconds on 'INITIALLISING WARNING DATABASE' or some such. It will create a new .spdb and .spud file containing the PGPSW data which is directional. I suspect that the supplied database does not contain the direction data.
And remember you must have a GPS fix for the enable 'button' to show on a standard skin. |

Thank you for your help and patience - I'll give it a try.
I don't normally have these sort of problems with tech - honestly Guv |

The .spud file contains any speedcams you add to the device manually or the location of any cams that you have deleted/modified from the main list. The main database is in the .spdb file, and WILL work (eventually) ;-) |
