Sat Nav

[gregers]

hi can anyone tell me how i can load the saftey camera info into my sat nav,have been given (which i think)is the right info,but cant seem to get it to load?

the info consists of bitmap images and something called CSV FILES have loaded them all onto my sd memory card and nothing happened.

 

what am i doing wrong?

 

as usual any help on these matters is greatly accepted

 

merriest regards gregers :lol:

CSV = comma separated variables. Depends on what satnav system you have

[NikpV]

don't you have to use the poiloader to convert to gpx system (use an ipaq myself so not certain )

[Guest gooner52]

Comma Separated Values ...... it's a format designed for importing data into a spreadsheet or database of some kind.

 

"Sat Nav, garmin streetpilot c510 deluxe" ... taken from the topic title :lol:

 

Is there any info on the Garmin site for this? Do you need special connection software to link the unit to your PC to transfer the files to a specific folder on the unit itself?

 

I know on tomtom on a pda they have to go in the map folder for it to pick them up and on my Navman you have to use the connection software to add more POIs

 

EDIT: OK .. saw your editted reply too late :lol:

 

Glad you sorted it lol

[gregers]

the info was sent to me in an email only about 350k of information in rar format.

amazing really that it can hold so much

 

once again thanx
