Have just downloaded the latest camera updates to my Nuvi 310, how can I check that they have donloaded to it OK ???

I'm sure this must have been asked but I can't find the answer!

Thanks Question

They will be listed under My Locations, Custom POIs. Page 49 of the Manual 1.8 Mb PDF

Thanks Paul

But, how do I know it has downloaded the latest file?

I'm not sure if the download worked or not ! Confused

When you run POILoader the first thing it does is wipe out all your POIs. Then it loads the new ones. If POILoader reports that it loaded the POIs successfully then it worked.

As long as you put the new database into the POILoader folder and then upload that with POILoader and it states the POIs were loaded successfully, you can assume it's loaded.

Not sure of any other way to prove it really.

Edit: Another way would be to use the latest version of POILoader, use it to Delete All Existing POIs, check the Database has gone and then upload the new one. As long as you put the newest database in the POILoader upload folder then it'll be fine.
