I can't get on with the Garmin Speed Camera warnings. It is the same sound as the speed change warning.

I use Pocket GPS worlds after market downloads. On the 550/690 and 590 you could set POI in the excel file to ping only once. You changed the @ to a -

But it does not work now. Any pointers or can I get a differnet audio on the Garmin or change the POI files. I have set both to "once" in settings

I don't know, but can you find the sound file that is being played and change that ?

I had the PGPSW data base on my 595LM and it worked perfectly including a voice announcing the upcoming camera site. I have now got an XT, running PGPSW as well, but it does not function anywhere near as well, as it did on the 595LM. I get a visual banner at the top of the screen and a 'very' short ping to warn of the camera.

I too use the Pocket GPS world safety cameras database and use the female voice with no prefix, Works just like the other Garmin's I've had. It only annunciates once if you're not above the speed limit.

How do you do stay below the limit ;)
That could be the issue.
