      Hi

Timed School Zones, you know so they only activate at the correct time of the day.

If a GPS Guider and a Road Angel (ov2 file) can get it right, why can't ov2 files in TomTom 910 get it right?

Does someone know how to edit files. POI edit is not up to it.

Cheers

To have your School Zone warning alert operational during school times only is a manual function of disabling the warning.
The Point Of Interest alert has no Time Of Interest function and as far as I'm aware no GPS unit has an automated time zone alarm function.

Interesting.
Do you recommend these obsolete, third world GPS technology devices instead of many other more advanced GPS models?

It would be great if the poi works during active school hours

How can you call a GPS obsolete and third world, when the very latest TomTom XL340 DOES NOT HAVE TIMED SCHOOL ZONES.
From what I can gather you cant even do this with a TomTom.
Why. Perhaps the TomTom is a third world obsolete piece of junk, considering I have a mate who has a Road Angel that is 2 years old and it has timed school zones and not only that it only alerts on school days.

My thoughts are it is a feature in software such as Road Angel which I guess must look at the device calendar and time, and not a function of the POI itself.

The other possible reasons for not having timed zones are:
1. Makes the files much larger and eats more memory.
2. Even out of the timed speed reduction, there are still kids around the schools and it doen't hurt us motorists to be warned that we are in a school zone.

Seems incredible doesn’t it the GPS has so much functionality but something so apparently simple like time activated POI’s appears to have skimmed over the heads of the programmers, or is it too difficult? Wonder what the answer is? Rolling Eyes
