I downloaded some of the POIs, but what do i do from there? should i just put the files in the download folder? I tried that, but my TomTom doesn't recognize them. |

Copy the OV2s into the map folder. There is a maximum of 39 on v5 & 100 on v6. _________________ Jock

And for every file ending with .OV2 there is a corresponding .BMP that also has to be copied into the folder containing your map. _________________ RQ

Don't forget to open the downloaded .zip file on your computer first, so that you can see the .ov2 & .bmp files in order to copy them as mentioned above. |

If you are still unsure as to exactly what to do please have a read of the set-up guide Here it was written around a 910 device but shows you the entire process from downloading to configuring the camera warnings - just ignore the warning set-up and the Text To speech part, if you are installing POI's other than Speed Cameras the process is identical - Mike |
