Post Loading Garmin speed alerts

Yes, you have to create a .csv file with filename containing "Speed", and .bmp file for the icon, or simply download them here:
http://poi.gps-data-team.com/

Then, edit the .csv file (e.g. using POI Editor or notepad) to include the location for speed alert, in following format:
Longtitude,Latitude,"AlertName@Speed","Comment"

e.g.
-2.58985,53.90852,"SpeedTest@40","SpeedLimit"

Then use POI Loader for Garmin to load it into your GPS unit. Make sure you choose the right unit (Feet/Miles vs. Meters/Kilometers". The number after "@" will be the limit (at mph or kph respectively). The alert will appear when you are within 36 second * Speed, and appear if you exceeds the limit.

Hope this helps!


Regards,
