Hi Paul2,
Thank you for your feedback. You are on the right way with the circles. A few important things:
1- Bearing and angle alerts are not working on any GPS. Garmin never implemented them although GPI Creator and EPE supports them. EPE will even write them to the .gpi file. In any cases, the GPS will ignore them.
2- Circles and Proximity: yes, the circles needs to be inside the proximity distance or it will not trigger an alert. The alert appears when the car crosses one of the circles. They are not directional, so make sure to put them on the right side of the road is needed. Do not make them too small otherwise the accuracy of the gps may not trigger an alert. Yes, adding small circles back to back is the way to go.
3- No, EPE does not support WAV files yet, but it is coming. I have an extra effort to make it happen and I have been delaying this for a while.

The way of making circles directinonal:
Methode 1: Make sure the opposite direction do not come inside the circles.
Methode 2: The Poi it selfe is a alarm turn of. Put the Poi in the middle of road and the circles on the side you want the alert. If you drive over (staight over) the poi before reaching circles, the alert will be turned of before you reach the alertzone(circles).
Driving over circles(alertzone) before Poi will give alert.
The gps use ca 2 sec to turn of alert before reaching circles so dont put the circles closer or pass the poi.Last edited by Vestenfjell; 11th May 2011 at 10:46 PM. Reason: Typo

Excellent work Vestenfjell,
Using method 2 is the preferred option as its a lot simpler and easier. Problems with method one resolve around the accuracy issue both of the gps and the google plugin.
Cant get the bmp to work and noticed that there aren't any camera pics there to choose from. Looking forward to when we can use wav and bmp.
