Vacation

 

I have my new c340 gps, external antenna with window mount, clear touch anti-glare, ac power cord, poi's (camera, attractions, checkpoints, radio, rest areas, speed, tolls and tourist loaded for the n.j, del and md areas). I also received my Mapsource dvd fron Garmin. I'm planning on going to Baltimore, MD and then Ocean City MD.
How can i plan this trip with mapsource? Mapsource only lets me upload waypoints from the gps. Do i edit the poi's and save the ones i want to write to a new poi file? ANy help will be appreciated.

Using my c330

I actually do this and find it not as hard as you would imagine. Just takes a little time and is really the fun part of it all for me, tweaking here and there as we go. Don't know if this helps, but it works for us. Have a safe, fun trip, don't forget to stop and smell the roses...

You can't plan trips with that unit. The best thing that you could do is to set up waypoints along the route and go from waypoint to waypoint as you travel.

If you have locations that you want to add to the POI files that you have downloaded, you can simply make those changes to the files in the proper format, save the files, and reload the files to your unit.
