Stop import from contacts

Another sys.txt tip. This tip is for Igo 2006 SE + only
If you don't want to import all your contacts as POIS put this in sys.txt:
[interface]
skip_contact_import=1

Show one way directions on Igo or Mio device

In a previous article we showed how to set the route simulation to normal speed, this was done with adding a line in the sys.txt file. Now we have an other option for the sys.txt file. When you add the line "show_oneway=1" then you will see the one way directions and stop signs for forbidden roads. The sys.txt file looks now like tis one

[debug]
slowsim=1
show_oneway=1


If you don't have a sys.txt file then you can create one and place the file in your IGO or MioMap directory.

Route simulation fast or slow

Default route simulation is fast. But if you wish you can change the settings so that the route simulation will be in normal speed. Do following:
Create a text file called SYS.TXT and add following lines

[debug]
slowsim=1

Now place this file in your IGO or Miomap directory on your storage card.

Modifying voice instructions

When you approach a roundabout (rotary/traffic circle) then voice  instructions are given 800, 300 and 100 metres prior, but only the very last one tells you which exit to take. It would be much better if the 300 meter announcement would contain the complete instructions, including the number of the exit to take.
 
So now we are going to change the voice instructions. The voice file is stored in the map voice, every zip file is a voice you can select in I-go or Miomap. In the zip file you find an file called commands.csv. We have to modify this file, extract this file to yoour pc with full file path. after the modifications we have to add this file to the zip file also with full file path.

Look for following line in the file:
,"300[equal,minsilence=10,if_not_2]","*prepare_to_enter_roundabout",
"prepare_to enter roundabout in %dist"

Replace this line with following:
,"300[equal,minsilence=10,if_not_2,exit]","*enter_roundabout_exit",
"in %dist enter roundabout take %exit exit"

Now we have a voice command in 300 meters prior to the roundabout telling which exit we have to take.
