The location of a Road Safety Camera is a special POI.
These cannot be searched like other POIs, and there is a
special proximity warning only for cameras.
Alpine Navigation Software can provide you with even better
routes if Traffic Message Channel (TMC) information is
available. TMC is a specific application of the FM Radio Data
System (RDS) used for broadcasting real-time traffic and
weather information. TMC is enabled by default in Alpine
Navigation Software.
INA-W900E Navigation Module is sold with a TMC
module, which is needed to receive TMC data. To receive
the signal, you also need a TMC antenna – several models
can be purchased as accessory – ask your local dealer for
further information.
If public TMC data are broadcasted at your location, Alpine
Navigation Software automatically takes into account the
TMC data received. You do not need to set anything in the
program. The receiver will automatically search the FM radio
stations for TMC data, and the decoded information will
immediately be used in route planning. The moment Alpine
Navigation Software receives traffic information that may
affect your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating
the route, and navigation will continue with a new route that
is optimal considering the most up-to-date traffic conditions.
You can access the list of TMC events, change TMC related
settings, and select or ignore specific radio stations in the
list of TMC events. On the Map screen, tap
