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).

the number of existing POIs). Use the rocker pad to
rename your POI.

Selection screen that consists of a library of POI
icons. Here you will be able to allocate an individual
icon to the POI.
