5.1.5 Road safety cameras and other proximity alert points
There is a special proximity warning for road safety cameras (like speed or red light cameras)
and other proximity alert points (like schools or railroad crossings). These alert points are not
part of Navigation Software. You can download them from http://xzent.com/ or you can
upload points in a specific text file if needed.
You can also add your own alert points or edit the previously uploaded points. See page 64
for details.
The application can warn you when you approach road safety cameras like speed cameras or
dangerous areas like railroad crossings or school zones. You can set up the different alert
types individually in Sound and Warnings settings (page 80).
The following alert types are available:
• Audio warning: beeps can be played while you are approaching one of these points, or
extra alert sounds if you exceed the given speed limit while approaching.
• Visual warning: the type of the alert point, its distance and the related speed limit
appear on the Map screen while you are approaching one of these cameras.
For some of the alert points, the enforced or expected speed limit is available. For these
points, the audio alert can be different if you are below or above the given speed limit.
• Only when speeding: The audio alert is only played when you exceed the given speed
limit.
• When approaching: The audio alert is always played when approaching one of these
alert points. In order to draw your attention, the alert can is different when you exceed
the speed limit.
Note!
The warning for road safety cameras is disabled when you are in a country where
road safety camera warning is
prohibited. However, you must ensure on your own
liability that using this feature is legal in the country where you intend to use it.
5.1.6 Speed limit warning
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. Navigation
Software is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be
available for your region (ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all roads in the
map.
Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Sound and Warnings settings (page 80).
You can set the relative speed above which the application initiates the warning.
The following alert types are available:
• Audio warning: you receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the
given percentage.
• Visual warning: the current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it (for
example:
).
You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.
