Speed Camera and other warning tones?

I'm running a F20BT, which is the Australian version of the Z120BT, and am wondering about the warning tones.

 

First up it seems that it's not smart enough to know differentiate things that are on my route vs speed cameras etc which happen to be on close by side streets I'm not driving on. Is this normal/right?

 

Next, there seems to be lots of train crossings (I think thats the icon I'm seeing) which set off a warning, problem is due to the above proximity limitation I get lots of audio alerts everytime we go past them... sort of annoying if your on the freeway which happens to run parallel to a train line with crossings. Anyway, the question is, is there a way to pick and choose which alerts are turned on? I can see way to turn on things for parking garages or banks etc, but can't seem to see one for turning off particular traffic warnings. Am I missing something or is it an all or nothing thing when it comes to the alerts?

afaik there are no camera alerts in the US. My Uk F10 has this and does the same as yours, unfortunately I can't see any way of changing this as such

Do you have backup from your unit?

Can you share firmware from your unit?

We try to hack this familly of units here so I think it can help us.
