Garmin POI Loader Instructions
Where to get POI Loader?
- Download POI Loader
Downloading the Pocket GPS Safety Camera Database
- Download from Pocket GPS Safety Camera Database page by selecting Garmin and then the required files.
Extracting the Database on the PC
- Extract the ZIP file contents to a directory on your PC
- In Windows XP right-click the .zip file and select "Extract Files Here..." or use a program such as WinZip or WinRar to extract the files - if you do not extract the files POI Loader will not be able to use them and will report that there are no csv files available
Installing Pocket GPS Safety Camera Database
-
Connect your Garmin to the PC via the USB cable
-
If POI Loader does not automatically start, run it now
- Browse for your POI folder and follow the on screen instructions
- Use ' auto' mode to quickly transfer the database to your unit
- Note that any other POIs you wish to load must be uploaded at the same time as the Speed Camera
Displaying Speed Cameras on Garmin units
-
Ensure that you have Proximity Alerts turned on in the units settings
- If you have a newer unit with the Garmin / Cyclops camera database installed then you may want to turn off alerts for this database to avoid duplicate warnings.
