Low Bridges

Hi Guys, have hit a big problem with the Low Bridges software.

Downloaded and installed it onto my Tom Tom 300. It shows in the POI section and I have put a 400 yard warning and ticked the enable box.

However, it is not working at all. I then tried it on my wifes TT One and my neighbours TT one...........same problem, not working. Tried my mate snew TT 510 and still not working. Have checked and re-checked the installation and installed files and all looks well.

1) Is anyone else getting this problem?

2) Any boffins on here that can put me right ?

Thanks in advance mateys !

I doubt that I have no more categories than anyone else. The only different cats I have to when I bought it are speed cams.

Its also a 1 gig SD card so it shouldn't really matter.

If the problem was just on mine, then fair enough, but on 4 units ?

petsonally I've never used lowbridges data.

I use robindata for day to day and find it fine

I also use robin's excellent data at www.willow-house.co.uk it’s a very good data- base.

Try http://www.amngps4.wanadoo.co.uk/poifil.htm for an alternative bridge
Data-base

I am currently using a file I created by merging both sets of files together using "poi manager" which has managed to fill in quite a few of the gaps in robins data, + I add bridges to the data base as I encounter them on my travels

If you are using tomtom be sure to have a valid bmp file with the same name as your ov2 file i.e. bridge.ov2, bridge.bmp or your poi’s will not show up!

My Low Bridge is showing up on my Tom Tom as a POI and I have placed a warning to sound when within 300yards of one, but not working.

I will check out that other link you have provided and see what happens.

Many thanks for all your help.

Its getting annoying now Laughing Out Loud

Is this data kept up to date, as It seems to be about three years since anyone posted, which seems odd as it would benefit so many people.

Is there another source for this free database.

cheers Kev.
