Hi,
I just found out that the alert function in GT-31 can be used to tell when you
get close to a speed camera. I know this is a bit out of topic but
someone who is in a hurry down to the beach might find this useful :)
What I've done is very simple:
Just transfer a waypoint file containing the camera positions to the gt-31 with
the navlink program.
The file for Sweeden can be found here:
http://www.poidatabase.se/Datafiler/Hastighetskameror.wpt
Activate the alert function in the menu on the gt-31. You can set the warning
distance as you like, I use 300m.
Drive safe...

Cool. Is there only a file for Sweden available or can you get files for other country's. If you have one for Ireland that would be great

Hi Alastair,
I made a quick google for camera files in Ireland and found this:
http://www.gps-data-team.com/gps-poi.php
Download the one for the OziExplorer that has the same waypoint format as the GT-31 and report if it works. It looks like the web page is quite up to date.
