Mine displays it when I'm just on the map and not navigation mode.
You need the cameras installed on the disk then its a case of selecting them via POI

If you have the cameras already installed its:

Setup

Map

Select Map Details

Then you just select what you want to be displayed on the map. i.e. speed cameras

^^^as Steven said really, the cams sadly don't come with the nav system from the dealers, its a extra bit of software you have to download/purchase...

A fellow very helpful member sorted mine out...and yes you can just have the cams displayed via the maps function...

I've never heard of a sat nav showing red lights, is that something new? Seems a bit pointless :huh:

They are easily added via the SD card if you have the latest firmware.

I downloaded the file HERE (https://rapidshare.com/files/3580059761/SpeedCameras.rar)

Extracted the file and put it on the SD card in a directory called PersonalPOI

Put the SD card in the RNS510

Go to SETUP - NAVIGATION and select My Points of interest, then press import and it should import the database.

Got to SETUP - MAP and Select Map Details, scroll down and Speed Cameras should be the last POI category

It is also handy having them on SD card, if you go to France, as they can be deleted easily if stopped by the Rozzers saving you that €1500 fine  :laugh:

Do the French not let you have speed cams then? Why not?

Yep, from the start of this year  :shocked:

Quote

Effective from 3 January 2012.

French laws prohibiting drivers from carrying devices capable of detecting speed cameras have been extended to include devices able to warn or inform of the location of speed cameras e.g. satnav or gps systems capable of showing speed camera sites as PoI

Penalties can include fines of up to €1,500, confiscation of the device and of the vehicle.

That's interesting, if the wording is followed exactly, the VW Sat Nav is not permitted as it is able to display, even if it is not displayed/enabled. Wonder how the French are going to interpretate this law.

And what about the speed limit sign . I do remember seen it before when I first got my rns 510 but now it's not there is it in the settings or something?    Also here a picture I just took of speed cam (http://i1166.photobucket.com/albums/q608/tconl/th_1fa0cedb.jpg) (http://s1166.photobucket.com/albums/q608/tconl/?action=view&current=1fa0cedb.jpg)

I don't have the my points of interest option. All I have is
3 alternative routes
Nav announcements
Time display
Define home
Advanced settings

Can anyone shed some light y it's my working.

It will probably be the firmware version, I think it has to be 3810 or above.

What version do you have?

Those are pirate copies of the original discs but would just be the maps.

If you upgrade your firmware, depending on what version you have at the moment,  there is chance you will wipe your maps and music as it can repartition the hard disk. However the maps can easily be reinstalled if you have the original disc or you can obtain the new ones.

The advantage of the new firmware is that you can install POIs from SD card.

I believe that i am running older firmware as the startup screen has green on the globe picture.

Can i update to the brand new one without knowing which one i am running at the moment.

Tempted to get the new maps as using the car for work i am normally going to estates where there are no street names just an industrial estate name and postcode.
