Reply With QuoteHi,
Finally I managed to use icons .bmp and excel .csv files from TThaven to create an .gpi file with POI Loader.
Nevertheless, all attemps to associate either a .wav file or a MP3 file with .bmp and .csv failed : it looks as if Montana is unable to read .wav files.
I tried to use both sox.exe files :the normal one and the one you modified. When I ran POI loader with yours, sox.exe didn't open while with normal one sox.exe could be run but apparently did nothing.
Fortunatly, alarm can be activated on Montana before each dangerous zone thanks to POI Loader using it in manual mode.

Very important.
The icons BMP (24x24 or 44x44) and filed GPX are provided to make yourself your own file GPI (with PoiLoader). Ok...
My GPI in bouquet rared is product with icons 24x24 and files GPX
Foe sounds: yes, you use the files offered by TTHaven...Ex: Camera.gpx.....Camera.bmp....Camera.wav (rename the file namefile.wav from bouquet TTH,to your choose)
Use Poiloader in Manual....and make sure to have the sox.exe (r.14.0.1) in the folder of Poiloader.exe [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Bye,bye

Use the latest release of Poiloader...important
Then the Montana does not process sound files custom for the POIs.
However tomorrow (or Sunday....floral period, this) I prepare a file GPI (one category) ... the test on my nuvi and I send you.
Bye,bye

Hi Roger,
I tried your simulation on my Montana : .wav file still does not work.
I only have tunnel icon and bip alert between river and tunnel.
Anyway, Wav sound must not work on Montana because Garmin only allows France cyclops dangerous zone download for Nüvi and Zümo.

Could someone that understand alerts from this french site, please explain the following alerts?
Alerte_carrefour_dangereux = DangerousIntersection
Alerte_danger_occasionnel = OccasionalHazard
Alerte_passage_a_niveau = CrossingAlert
Alerte_distance = DistantAlert
Alerte_poids = WeightAlert
Alerte_pont = BridgeAlert
Alerte_troncon_debut = TronconEarlyWarning
Alerte_troncon_fin = TronconAlertEnd
Alerte_troncon_rappel = TronconReminderAlert
Alerte_tunnel = TunnelAlert
Alerte_vehicule_debut = VehicleEarlyWarning
Alerte_vehicule_fin = VehicleAlertEnd
Alerte_vehicule_rappel = VehicleReminderAlert
Alerte_zone_dangereuse = DangerZone
Wouldn't some of these alerts (such as Zone,Tunnel,Bridge) be a span (distant) instead of just a single point?
Edit:
Ok,I've tried to match up coord from Cyclop with the France database. The type=13(speedLimit?) used in Cyclop seem to mapped to "OccasionalHazard"

Not 100% sure but i think that to comply with legislation ALL the alerts in France have to be spans/zones for a certain distance, rather than a specific point defined by a single set of co-ordinates. Originally Posted by osiris4isis

Exact. Since January 3, 2012 , the products or devices that warn or inform of the location of radars are prohibited by law. But GPS devices are still authorised to indicate the location of the dangerous zones ... Originally Posted by Neil
