Greg,

What format is your speed cams? and are they in the IGO8\Content\Speed Cams folder? In my case they are in TXT format.

I would suggest you download a skin for the IGO8.

The best one I have found is Gurjon, the link to the web site is:-

http://www.gurjon.com/

Use the GJ 6.17p_da_480x800_800x480, but it does depend on your SYS.TXT (Which should be in the route directory) file on which one you use.

Here is my SYS.TXT File

[interface]
skin="ui_igo8"
resolution_dir="800_480"
vga=0
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
laneinfo_signpost_enabled=1

[rawdisplay]

class="landscape"
highres=0
screen_x=800
screen_y=480

[map]

[roundaboutcam]

centery=20 ;(50)

[screen]
menu_animation=0

[timezone]
sync_os_timezone=0
reset_os_timezone=0

[navigation]

show_countrychange=1

[map]
auto_nightmode=1
3d_max_tiltlevel=9000
3d_scale_carmodel=1
3dcarsizemin=500
3dcarsizemax=600
3dcarsizemul=3000

[warning]
speedwarn_alt_builtup_based=1
speedcam_visualtype=1
speedcam_soundtype=2
speedwarn_tolerance=100

[sound]
sound_q_length=200
queue_length=200
ding=0

[msnd]
msnd.start=0

[gps]
set_messages=0
port=2
baud=9600


Which is set to run IGO in true 800x480 mode on my unit.

You will also have to add a audio folder to the root directory of IGO8 below is a link to upload the Audio file, it can only be uploaded 10 times, so be quick down loading it.

http://ul.to/ujmcrt

This is a Ziped file so you will have to unzip it. Add it to the route directory of IGO.

You will only be able to set up the speed cams once you have a GPS signal for the original skin on IGO and it should only give you a bleep. Once you have downloaded the G.J skin you will be able to give the voices to the speed cams I.E "Redlight Camera", "Gatso 50mph" ECT

I also have fully voice instructions running on my unit (Without "Out of Memory" errors), I.E "Take 3rd Exit On To A2" and "Take next left On To Mayo Road" ECT, but that is another story.

I will be doing a "HOW TO" soon, but its getting the time to do it for the forum.

Hi Tony, I have been trying to get my sys file the same as yours. Mine is different in " yours ding =0, mine ding=1, yours has a map group autonight mode =1, 3d maxtilt level etc, mine has protocol= nmea". Have I done something wrong?. Also when I turn the unit on the sound is deafening, I have used the r/c to turn it down but it is very high every time I switch on. Many thanks, John.

Hello John

The "0" turns things off "1" forces them to work.

The ding is before voice announcements (which I think is annoying so I removed it)

Autonight:- mode is it makes the screen go into a darkened mode so the screen is not bright.

There are many different setting, I could give a link to the forum I use for info on IGO but there are over 500 pages to read through!!

As for the loud volume, its stange, I know when I 1st installed my unit it had a very high volume, I just turned it down and its fine now, have you had a look on the settings menu, I am sure if click on one of the tab, there is settings there that yo can adjust.

I would suggest you save your SYS.TXT file onto your computer, then copy my settings to your unit and see how it goes, if need be you could then restore your original setting if needed

If you want I can phone you and go through them with you, just let me know.

Hi Tony, Thanks for that quick reply, I have saved my sys file in my doc. folder. Can I contact you after lunch as I have to go for a blood test at 9.30?. Many thanks. John.

Hi petrutms

The only member that I know that has the TMC working is David Lawrence, I have sent him a P.M and asked him to use your device manager to identify the COM port on his unit.

Hopefully, we will get a response.
