C50 Question

[wolfpacal]

Hi all, instead of putting one C50 back and forth between two vehicles, I was wondering if you could transfer the "marked locations" from one C50 to a second one. I only ask because I have two and would like to simply copy the marked locations I've saved on the one unit to the other. Sometimes the wife and I are out in the different vehicles at the same time. So far, the C50 is pretty accurate.

I believe you can print out the MARKED LOCATION database and upload it into your other C50.

Not having tried that I really don't know but it sounds reasonable.

Allyoops - under user settings you recommend 10 seconds- I have it set at 30 seconds. I guess I am confused- wouldnt 30 seconds give me more warning to an alert? What am I missing?

At this time there is no way to upload marked locations. I am glad you have asked as I am hoping that CHEETAH can see the need for this in so many ways.

Al states that he has passed the request on to the programming dept.

When you are in a heavily populated area 30 seconds could be a long time to know where to look. While in El Paso yesterday I ran into a couple of locations that were right on top of each other and 30 seconds could have easily covered 2 camera locations.

The 9500ix is short by comparison to the C50's default.

My bad, I thought it was possible. I am pretty sure that option will become available in the near future though. Seems like an easy firmware upgrade.

Thanks- that is the reason i was told as well.
Consequently I am now using 10 secs too.

I've found with speed cameras the limit alert flashes almost up to the camera location when it's set to 10 seconds and I need to rely on the over speed beeps and an inaccurate vehicle speedo to slow.

I prefer the 15 second alert time as my speed is re-displayed well before I reach the weapon of mass prosecution and I can cruise on by at precisely the PSL.

It's a personal thing I suppose, and yeah being able to reload marked locations would be a sweet feature.

I prefer 15 sec as well.

I am thinking of 15 seconds as well.
