Setting the speedtrap alerts
Your Magellan Maestro is preloaded with the location of speed cameras, so you can be alerted when
approaching a speed control area. By default, the Speedtraps file is selected. This option provides a
way to select another speedtrap file, to select speedtrap categoriess that are displayed on the map, to
set alarms for each speedtrap category and to set up the alert parameters.
Please refer to the Enhanced POIs section in the Points of Interest chapter for more information about
doing this.
Speedtraps can easily be updated by downloading a new file from the internet and using the Magellan
POI Editor PC Tool. When loading a new speedtrap file remember that it should be first converted to
the Magellan.MGLN format using the POI Editor PC Tool and then copied to the SPEEDTRAPS
subfolder on your Magellan Maestro.
