Could do with an option that maps 'all' petrol stations during navigation, instead of mapping each individual 'brand' such as Shell etc - sometimes you just need go-go juice from wherever!
If i am missing something let me know, but pretty sure the option wasn't there. |

From the POI Download page select Fuel and next to the download button is a radio button/ checkbox saying "Combine sub categories in to single file" make sure thats selected and you get all the petrol stations in a single file.
Now the sting - the POI Download page can only combine 20 categories in to a single file at any one time, the fule POI category contains 30+ sub-categories, so you have to download the data in two blocks then use something like POIEdit to concatenate the two files in to one - Mike |

Then convert, if necessary, to suit the device being used. _________________ Richard

I don't think you can. With Telmap we are limited to what they've got configured. A good request for some CIP. |

Yes - I can confirm Syborg is right.
You can't load your own set of POIs into Telmap5. |
