Town: Centurion Posted: 07 January 2008 at 6:38pm | IP Logged   Hello Don Are you getting a continuous warning, or a single "beep" when you approach the camera or trap? A single beep is normal, and you should get a continuous alarm again only when your speed is higher than the setting you have chosen. __________________ Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the Serpent, and the Serpent did not have a foot to stand on.....

When I exceed the speed setting (127km/h), it does not give me continuous alarm. Therefore the unit alarms only at the initial speed limit of say 120km/h and ignores the grace setting of 127km/h.

Town: Centurion Posted: 07 January 2008 at 7:28pm | IP Logged   Check your settings. (Spanner icon) Proximity Points Alerts - tap change On the bottom bar - tap Audio Select - Continuous - Speed Alerts. That should do the trick. (Unless I am missing something) __________________ Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the Serpent, and the Serpent did not have a foot to stand on.....

Maybe one of the other Nuvi 200 owners will be able to give you the right answer. __________________ Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the Serpent, and the Serpent did not have a foot to stand on.....

I can accelerate to 160 without any continuous warning within that zone.

I deleted the previously installed custom POI's. Thereafter I installed the new files downloaded today to the SD Card and then transfered the files to the Nuvi internal memory. Just 1 problem: Once I convert the "Mobile Hazards" file, I am unable to use it. I get "Mobile_Hazards.gpx is not a valid MapSource file and could not be opened." So for the time being I am using the previous file.
