11. POIs (Points of Interest)
11.1 POIs Overview
POIs are Points of Interest: points on a
map linked to geo-referenced data (latitude/
longitude), displaying text or images with
information about that point (e.g. hotel,
restaurant, viewpoint, historical site, etc).
POIs can be added to the unit in two ways —
either by map or by grid reference. (POIs can
also be added by postcode for some units in
the UK). Individual icons can be allocated to
each POI. These allow for better management
of POIs and faster recognition.
Note: Use SatSYNC to add graphics or
more detailed information to a POI. (See the
SatSYNC 1.5 User Guide).
11.2 Add POI by Map
(GPS MAP → MAIN MENU → OOI Menu →
Add POI by Map)
Alternative access:
(GPS MAP → MAIN MENU → OOI Menu →
OOI Folders → Create New POI)
To create a POI using the map, select Add POI
by Map from the OOI Menu and press Select
or centre press the joystick. This will take you
to the Add POI screen where you will be able
to set a POI icon.
The orange locator circle has a red cross in
the centre to indicate you are in edit mode on
the Add POI screen. Create a POI by either
pressing the top left '+' button or centre press
the joystick in the desired location. Use the
lower left 'x' button to remove POIs.
Once you set a POI you are prompted to name
the POI on the keypad screen. When a POI is
created it is called 'POI 1' by default (or similar,
depending on the number of existing POIs).
Use the joystick to rename your POI.
Pressing Done will take you to the POI Icon
Selection screen that consists of a library of
POI icons. Here you will be able to allocate
an individual icon to the POI. Use the joystick
to scroll through choices and press Done to
select the icon. Move the joystick up/down to
access more screens with POI icons.
The Add POI screen appears with your recent
POI creation in the centre of the map. Press
Back to return to the OOI Menu.
Alternatively you can access the Add POI
screen by selecting Create New POI from the
OOI Folders menu.
