Custom POI-Speed Cameras

Hi everyone,

Mine is a Garmin nuvi 2350 and already have the speed cameras but only with the bell alarm. I have tried so many times to get the "warning speed camera ahead" following the instructions but still unlucky. I have unzipped the sox.exe from the sox-14-0-1.zip and put it in the same folder with the POI Loader and everything to no avail. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks
Holiday

Did you try both the MP3 or WAV sound files ?
The file must have the same name as the speed file you download and be in the same directory to work.

Speed camera ahead warning

Yes, I did. I downloaded both the mp3 and wav files, named them like the speed cameras and put them in the same file. Should it be just one? either the mp3 or the wav? Im getting desperately challenged. Please help.

Yes. Either the .wav or the .MP3
They work in different model GPS units, and not sure which units use which file, so one has to experiment and find the one that works for you.

It depends as to which model GPS you are using.
I just got a new 3590LMT and it uses .mp3 files.
