Hi

I have downloaded these files from PGPSW as .gpi and also excel comma separated with a bmp image file, but I am struggling to load these to my Camper 770 using POI Loader.

The POI Loader error message says they have to be .csv or .gpx files.

I have searched but cannot find an answer - can anybody do a walk through with me please?

Thanks in advance

POILoader converts CSV or GPX to .GPI

If you have downloaded a .GPI file then you don't need POILoader, put that file into the POI folder on your Garmin.

We don't provide .gpi files so you have either downloaded these from elsewhere or already run POI Loader on the downloaded CSV files.

Instructions for Garmin can be found here: https://www.pocketgpsworld.com/uksafetycameras-garmin.php

Note that this is for speed cameras but the process is the same for POIs.
