Hi all,

Just downloaded and installed the latest version for my Navman.
And when I select the map, the device is beeping like there is no tomorrow as it is telling me that there is a speed camera 10 feet away from my house!

How do I find the incorrect entry for deletion from the database?
More importantly who do I inform about this inaccuracy or error?

Is it a Mobile Camera Site? Has a Camera ever been there?

If you are 100% sure that it is an incorrect Camera Location use the Yellow Submission section of the Camera Page.

Read the instructions on the Page carefully.

I was using the consolidated file which gave me the problem. I have sidestepped the issue by using the single file version instead.

There is no camera icon on the map when I use the consolidated file. All I have is the message on the Navman ICN520 which tells me that I am within 10ft of a speed camera and the incessant beeping of course. When I disable the GATSO and Mobile POI the beeping stops.


To my knowledge there has never been a camera on my street. I live on a suburban road which does not have through traffic. Using the camera submission page I noticed that there was a mobile camera about 1000 or so ft away.

Should I PM with my location to see whether there is an incorrect entry?

cheers

Andrew

You can easily see by looking at your location on the camera submission page.

When you open the consolidated files in your POI editor you will see the following entrys "control 1","control 2", "control 3" delete these entrys as
they have Lat/Lon of 0,0 which Makes the ICN520 show speedcam in
*10ft* before unit has obtained satellite fix.

That sounds like a good reply xhosa1. This has cropped up a couple of times, and it has been assumed it was an actual entry that was wrong.
Is this something that has always been there but only upsets a particular model? Is it something that needs altering by the PGPSW "camera team"?

Thanks. That did the trick!
