Copy and paste the POI file into the Garmin device in folder poi. Mac Finder doesn't display the device. And paste the file poi. Now your Garmin is ready for a safe trip. Note: Make a real test drive. Alerts doesn't work on simulated route. Repeat all steps of the guide above to update the speed camera data on your device. In general, it is not necessary to delete old data before. New data overwrite the old ones if you choose the same name for POI file e.
In case you have any problems with the installation, you should delete old POIs from the system beforehand. Monthly updates are recommended.

As I recall there was a date stamp on the Cyclops file, and there would be times I would check and nothing changed It reduces false alarms by only activating for cameras in the direction of travel.
It does not activate in construction zones or high possibility areas for mobile speed camera sites. It may update daily but Garmin does not send out updates too regularly. My last update was one day after I bought the subscription on Sept 5 To answer common questions on this and other forums, the Cyclops Safety Camera Subscription for the U.
It is generally not compatible with the newest devices which leads me to think that perhaps Garmin is discontinuing it some day and before one downloads a subscription, they should check the compatibility list.
Thinking that the list was just not updated regularly, I checked it on my wife's LMT and when I tried to install a free trial subscription, it said it is not compatible. It did work fine on my Nuvi 40LM, which is on the compatibility list. Yes, that graphic explains the differences quite well. Cyclops will not alert if the camera is facing a different direction. As I am finding while creating a database of school zones in Winnipeg, it takes an immense amount of work to set up POIs so they only alert on the affected streets.
While it is easier to set up the location of a camera and then add a proximity alert, you do get false alerts in other than the direction the camera is facing. When I create a school zone speed alert, I need to set up a POI on each street that is affected, and NOT to use the physical location of the school or its street address. Some schools can have as many as three or even four streets that are affected, and each one must be added manually.
Each POI has it's own proximity distance, and in Winnipeg, that can vary from street to street. Some are as short as meters from end to end of the zone.
Others are as long as meters. Once the gpx file is created, then it must be uploaded as containing proximity points, and the speed alert set at the appropriate speed for that jurisdiction.
So that's for only one municipality, with elementary schools, using about individual points-of-interest. It is for this reason I can respect the amount of work that goes into the Cyclops database.
Yes, it costs more than a user-supported database I use both but it was worth it to me. To me, a safety camera alert system lets me be heads-up in a school zone watching for kids, instead of looking at my watch, reading a lengthy road sign and trying to figure out if it is to hours, Monday to Friday, September to June. Yes I guess this is very vomplex, I have much study to do, there is a tutorial here, because just use poi loader, Garmin, I n, not have lot of options, I imagine that done it otherwise?
FYI, there have been two more Cyclops updates in the past three weeks. It is beginning to look like it is updated about once a week.
