FAQ iGO OEM

I'm trying to understand the situation with the first five iGO codes. Let's say the 1.2.3.4.5 encoding is the default for all iGOs since the program's inception. Let's call this phenomenon "iGO OEM." This also applies to all iGO-based programs, such as Becker and other iGO-based ones. If you don't have iGO Primo, which was released in 2010, but an older version of iGO, such as iGO8 or iGO8.3, then your speedcam.txt is iGO OEM. Also, if you iGO OEM, you can't use spc files from HERE or TomTom. Because spc is iGO Primo's encoding, you'll get unreliable notifications.
Now, regarding usage, how many users are still using older hardware? I estimate their number is approximately 0.1% of the total iGO user base, as those using iGO Primo since 2010, newer Android devices, and iGO Primo Nextgen.
Now let's talk about OEM for iGO Primo. So, iGO Primo is a workaround for iGO's bugs, a different approach to route building, and a different coding principle. All radar coding to this day is based on iGO Primo. You can safely use spc, as this is iGO Primo's encoding.
"OEM iGO Primo" has a coding system with a 32-bit repetition rate. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] and so on up to 992.
Now about my publications: Mod AF, speedcam.txt. All files are created for iGO Primo users. Let's call this OEM iGO Primo. We've covered two concepts: OEM iGO and OEM iGO Primo. If you're an iGO Primo user, you don't need to look for special speedcam.txt files for OEM iGO with encoding 1.2.3.4.5.
Your navigator supports at least 16 notification types, and up to 32 notification types when using a skin. Older iGO Primo skins 24, 25, or 27 notification types, depending on the skin author's efforts. Mod AF - 32 types as in iGO Primo Nextgen.

History of iGO

Spoiler: +++++

iGO My Way 2006 Plus is a navigation program for personal navigators (running Windows CE) and PDAs/communicators (running Windows Mobile). Released in 2005, it was discontinued in 2009.

iGO 8 is the next version of iGO, released in 2008. Its key feature is realistic 3D navigation with terrain display, road junctions, buildings, and other landmarks.

iGO Amigo is a version of iGO with a simplified user interface, released in 2009. It retains the core features of iGO 8 required for GPS navigation, although its capabilities are limited compared to the previous version to achieve maximum simplicity and ease of use. Features of iGO Amigo:

• a built-in presentation that teaches the user how to use the program;
• low-maintenance RAM usage, allowing the program to run quickly on any device;
• Comparison of multiple route options (fast, short, economical, easy);
• The "Where am I?" function determines your current GPS coordinates and displays nearby points of interest, such as a police station, emergency room, auto repair shop, etc.;
• The route is displayed as dots, allowing you to see your direction even at very low speeds;
• The cursor shape can be selected—a standard "arrow" or a cursor representing various vehicle models.
• The app is preinstalled on personal navigators from several brands, including Navon, Prestigio, and others.

iGO My Way 2009 is a version of iGO for iPhone. Currently, the app is available in the Apple App Store with maps of North America and Europe. Features of iGO My Way 2009:

• Realistic 3D display of the map, road junctions, and buildings;
• TTS Pro (Text-to-Speech) support, which provides voice prompts for street and city names, as well as traffic information and information about road conditions within a country after crossing its border.
• Google Local Search – search for businesses, landmarks, and other points of interest near the user's current location;
• purchase of additional content through the App Store;
• realistic display of interchanges;
• calculation of an "eco-friendly" route with the lowest fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in addition to the standard quick, short, and easy route options;
• search for POIs along the route;
• select iPhone contacts, GPS coordinates, and photos as the destination;
• route calculation with multiple waypoints;
• the ability to call a POI directly from the navigation app;
• the "Where am I?" function determines the current GPS coordinates and displays the nearest necessary points of interest, such as a police station, emergency room, car service, etc.;
• Automatic device orientation detection (portrait/landscape orientation);
• Display of traffic lanes and realistic signs during navigation;
• Selectable cursor shape—standard "arrow" or models of various vehicles;
• Automatic return to navigation mode after an incoming call.

iGO Primo is the latest version of the program, released in 2010. Like iGO Amigo, it has a simple user interface, but also includes a wide variety of features and customization options.

iGO Primo features:

• High-resolution 3D terrain display;
• Point Addressing—navigate through driveways and search for houses with fractional numbers, multiple buildings, etc.;
• Realistic display of road signs in the country;
• An improved program core significantly accelerates the calculation of complex routes;
• Additional navigation tips—information about the next two maneuvers, warnings about road safety cameras, speeding alerts, etc.;
• The "Back to Car" function automatically remembers the car's position when the device is disconnected from the power supply;
• Simultaneous calculation of multiple route options, including an "eco-friendly" route;
• Accounting for traffic restrictions that depend on the time of day or day of the week (e.g., streets closed to traffic on weekends);
• Display of traffic lanes and realistic signs during navigation;
• The user can customize the quick menu and map screen;
• The cursor shape can be selected—a standard "arrow" or models of various vehicles;
• The route is displayed as dots, allowing you to see the direction of travel even at very low speeds;
• The "Where am I?" function determines your current GPS coordinates and displays the nearest necessary points of interest, such as a police station, emergency room, auto repair shop, etc.;
• The program takes into account and displays traffic regulations in different countries (maximum speed limits in and outside populated areas, permissible blood alcohol levels, etc.);
• Truck navigation (iGO Primo Truck version), taking into account the vehicle's dimensions and the nature of the cargo.

The program is pre-installed on personal navigation devices.

iGO Primo Nextgen was introduced in 2015.

What does "artificial intelligence" think about this?

FAQ Ai - iGO OEM, iGO OEM Primo

Quote:

---

Speedcam.txt files in iGO OEM (often corresponding to earlier versions such as iGO 8) and iGO Primo OEM have the same basic format and are generally interchangeable.

Basic Principles and Format
The basic principle of working with the speedcam.txt file in both versions is to use a simple text format with delimiters (usually the pipe symbol |). Each line in the file describes one point of interest (POI) or camera and contains a set of parameters:
X|Y|TYPE|SPEED|DIRECTION|...
Where:
X and Y are the geographic coordinates (longitude and latitude).
TYPE is the type of camera or warning (e.g., fixed camera, dangerous spot, railway crossing).
SPEED is the speed limit for the given point.
DIRECTION is the camera's direction of action (optional).
Differences
The key difference lies not in the file format itself, but in the functionality of the iGO Primo OEM software, which supports a wider range of alert types (categories) compared to older versions of iGO OEM.
iGO OEM (older versions): Supports basic camera and hazard types (e.g., fixed radars).
iGO Primo OEM: Adds support for additional POI categories, such as railway crossings, fire stations, school zones, etc.
Therefore, the speedcam.txt file for iGO Primo OEM may contain lines with new TYPE values ​​that will not be recognized or used in older versions of iGO OEM. However, basic camera types will work in both versions.
It is important for users to ensure that the database they are using is compatible with their region and software versions.

Autonomous radars in France

Autonomous radars

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Despite the fact that these are mobile trailers, radar databases interpret them differently. Some classify them as stationary radars, others as mobile.

So, what and where?

SCDB - classifies trailers as stationary radars, code 1.
7.246300,43.690970,1,50,0,0

POI Base - classifies trailers as mobile radars, code 5.
7.246661,43.691097,5,50,1,243

OSC - classifies trailers as stationary radars, code 1.
7.246634,43.691053,1,50,1,242

;)

* OSC - In 2026, there will be changes. New classification of trailers - code 5.

info

Radar Classification in France

The main types of radars used in France include:
1. Fixed Radars (Radars Fixes)
These are classic cameras that are permanently installed in specific locations (usually on supports along the side of the road or above the road). They are designed to monitor speed in a specific area or at a point where a high accident rate has been recorded.
Operating Principle: They record the instantaneous speed of a vehicle. If the speed limit is exceeded, a photograph of the license plate is automatically taken.
Notification: Fixed radar locations are usually marked with warning signs.

2. Mobile Radars (Radars Mobiles)
These radars are used by police and gendarmerie while moving or when a patrol car is parked on the side of the road. They are less visible than fixed radars.
"New Generation" Mobile Radars (ETM): These are systems built into unmarked (civilian) vehicles operated by both law enforcement and private companies. They can measure the speed of oncoming and following traffic while the patrol car is moving through traffic, using an invisible infrared flash.

3. Autonomous Trailer-Mounted Radars (Radars Autonomes / Radars Chantiers)
These radars are often called "construction site cameras." They are large, portable units mounted on a trailer that can be quickly moved from one location to another.
Application: They are used temporarily, primarily in roadwork zones or areas with altered traffic patterns, where installing a permanent radar is impractical.
Feature: They can operate autonomously for long periods.

4. Tower Radars (Radars tourelles)
This is one of the latest developments, actively implemented in France since 2018. Visually, they resemble tall cylindrical "towers."
Multifunctionality: These modern cameras, using lidar technology, are capable of monitoring up to ten vehicles simultaneously in multiple lanes and in both directions of travel.
Recorded Violations: In addition to speeding, they can record other violations such as running a red light, failing to keep a safe distance, using a phone while driving, and not wearing a seatbelt.

Additional types by functionality:
Sectional Radars (Radars tronçons / de vitesse moyenne): Measure the average speed of a vehicle on a specific section of road between two points, rather than the instantaneous speed at a single point.
Red Light/Intersection Radars (Radars feux rouges / Radar passage à niveau): Specially designed to record driving through red lights or railroad crossings.
"Pedagogical" radars (Radars pédagogiques): Non-penalizing devices that display the driver's current speed (usually in green or red) to inform and encourage compliance, but do not issue fines.

ASC - Average Speed ​​Control.
If you're using a modern version of a skin in your navigator, such as the 2025 Pongo skin, this issue was resolved in the 2019 Pongo skin and in the 2020 Wandel skin.
(Pongo iGO Nextgen skin from March 17, 2019. Wandel iGO Nextgen skin from April 27, 2020,)
Average speed section - starts and ends at 5 km/h. Calculates the average speed for the entire section until the section closes. To see how this works, you need to have a speedcam.txt file in the content/speedcam folder with average speed section data.

Currently, the OSC database is the only database for European countries with average speed closure parameters, and the BBS database is the only database for Spain, Portugal, and Andorra. Other databases, such as the SDCB and POI database, do not have section closure parameters.

How it works if you use SCDB database.

A circular alert system notifies each camera, both when entering and exiting an average speed zone, as a new average speed zone. Drivers must determine whether they are within an average speed zone or have left it. Average speed zones can end, or new zones can begin, one zone following another. It seems that if you don't disable the average speed zone yourself, you risk receiving alerts until you turn off your car.

How it works if you use "POIbase" database.

In this case, things aren't as bad as with the SCDB. The section ends at the first stationary camera encountered, in theory. ;)

P.S.
Timer

Code:

---

[speedcam_category:3]
max_section_time=120, 2min

---

- the time after which the area will automatically close, which eliminates the need for "Finish" coordinates and, accordingly, the problem of searching for "Finish" is eliminated.
The solution, of course, isn't ideal, but it's viable for older versions of the skin.
To use the timer, remove all "Finish" from speedcam.txt, to avoid problems, leave only "Start". Speedcam.txt "starts only"

The timer applies to Pongo skins published before March 17, 2019
