Default Speed Alert

Hi Again,
So finally I'm using my Zumo on the bike :-) It will take me a while to get used to it, but it works perfect... that's what I've been waiting for.
One annoying thing I cannot switch off is speed alert! It keeps coming on every time I'm getting close to the speed limit or I'm over it. How can I dis-activate it? I'd like to be inform though about speed camera, but it seems to be not connected?
Cheers

I think it should be possible to switch off the warnings by going to main menu -> warnings -> POIs (presuming your speed camera warnings are loading using the .gpi file as they normally are)

This will however, completely stop the warnings appearing which I guess is probably not what you want either.

The only other options would I think be to switch off the audio for navigation (this would still allow you to see the speed cameras but not hear them but also not hear audio navigation) or to simply copy the .gpi file that resides under \garmin\poi on your Zumo to get rid of the warnings completely.

Or you could of course just put up with the warnings

David

I think I found the answer. It wasn't Garmin Camera POI making speed aletrs. It was the Custom POI. I've switched it off and it's quite now when I'm speeding but there is a waring when I am approching the speed camera :-)
I'm pretty sure I've seen option of editing those custom POI but I don't remember if that was in MapSource or in Zumo...
Do you know how can I look into my Custom POI installed on Zumo?

Cheers
