Hi,



I was wondering if any iCN510 owner could do me a favour. The PiN/PPC version of SmartST V3 currently sends any Custom POI files to the My POI folder in the device’s Main Memory by default. I’ve found the line in the .ini file mentioned in the Subject field, but can’t alter it to send those files to my Storage Card by default. I was wondering if the iCN had a similar line and, if so, what it might be. The .ini file is in Programs\Navman\Navman SmartST Desktop Version 3 for PocketPC.



[TargetLocation]

icNSmartSTDir=NAVMAN

PalmSmartSTDir=PALM\Programs\NAVMAN\SmartST_Pro\Maps

POIDir=Storage Card\NAVMAN\SmartST_Pro\MYPOI

FicinoSDDir=Storage Card\Navman



I’ve altered mine, as my storage card is named Storage Card, but this just creates a directory in the Main Memory and sticks the files in there. The pertinent line is the one beginning POIDir.



Any light you could shed to get this to send the files direct to the SD card would be appreciated.

Tim, you are missing the leading backslash

\Storage Card\etc...

Nice idea but no joy, Lutz. Adding a '\' puts them in the same place as without it. Keep those ideas coming, though.

Hi,
I have checked my icn 510 set up and the poieditor.ini reads the same as your except the POIDIR which reads:
POIDIR=MYPOI.
If this just creates another dir on your device and not on the sd card then there may be another ini file involved.

Hope this helps.

Hi again

Also checked for other ini files related to this and in

c:\program files\navman\ navman smartst desktop version 3 for icn500 series there is a file called icnconfig (obvioulsy on ppc the path wil differ) this also has dir entries relating to device or sd card locations, not mypoi but surely this could be added.

How about "Hey Navman, fix your program bug! " ?
