F920 - speed cameras and maps — AVIC411 Forum Archive

Hello guys!

I'm from Germany, and very sorry for my bad english

I have the F920BT radio by Pioneer.

In Germany Pioneer doesn't support "speed cameras" in the maps.

How can i get them?

Also I want to know, how I can get new maps - without paying and how i can install them.

Thanks for your help!

Greetings from germany!

If the unit doesn't support it there is no way to add the feature. And there are no map updates available at this time.

Perhapse you understood me wrong.

I meaned, that you can't install the POI's from the german Pioneer-homepage.

So I don't know where I can get the Speedcamera-POI's and what POI's I can install.

NAVGATE FEEDS is the PC app that will allow you to install custom POI and you may be able to install camera database files from there. But if the unit does not support a camera database warning system then it wont matter.

and where do i get the camera database?

I installed navgate feeds on my computer but I don't understand how I install the database and where I get the database.

I called the pioneer service and they told me, that the camera data isn't available in germany. They also told me, that it is possible to install the speedcameras from other countrys.

Hope you can help me.

greetings from germany!

I dont know. I don't live in Germany. Call them back and ask them if German units supports a camera alert feature as the EU units do. If it doesn't then it wont matter what file you use, it wont work.

I do not know for Germany, but for Belgium, if you register the AVIC-F920 on the pioneer site, you get a free suscription for POICON

Then you install the PIOBASE software and you can install the speed camera's (called black spots in the radio)

It uses the micro SD card to install special POI on the radio

Check the support section on the pioneer site, then see software update...

You could try to register in the Belgian site (pioneer.be) Since in Germany they blocked this free service

seems to be also possible within Germany: register at POIBASE, get the coupon from Pioneer, and off you go!

check this instructions (unfortunately in german)

cheers,
