how to upload poi files to a navigon 2100?

I found a post from a couple months back about the 5100 / 7100 models. The feedback at that time didn't look promising for custom POIs.

JM the answer you gave is not accurate information, you can load the POI files you need with third party software in all Navigon products, including the 2100.

Go to POI-Warner for more information.

JM,
I was at CES this January and spent sometime with the vendor from Navigon and really liked some of the features of the top of the line 7100 model. I was surprised when he said that the top of their line cost around $500.00 so I inquired how they could sell it so cheap and upon discussing the matter with him, he stated Navigon left off items like an mp3 player, viewer, etc that Garmin adds to their top of the line, but the main point was that you could not add additional POI's to their unit at this time, I said I really like that feature, especially allowing to add Red Light Cameras to your unit.

The Navigons themselves do not allow adding the poi files like the Rep said. With the add on software I can add them to the SD card. The Traffic is more important to me than the mp3 player, I have a sat radio. And yes I do have the red light Camera file from POIFactory loaded in my 2100.

dog_poop, thank you for your information. At least I know that POI-Warner can use with 2100 to import red light camera from POI-Factory. My friend consider buying 2100 soon. Do you have a link for how to add poi by using POI-Warner?

Reading the POI-Warner site is next-to-useless. It's obvious that English isn't their first language and among the questions I have are:

- Can I upload third party POIs using this tool?
- Does the tool itself provide any North American content or is this really just a European tool?
- What format do my third party POIs need to be in to upload to the device?

I use the files from this site, the POI-Warner site is a European content site. The program is well documented in English. and is well worth the Money.

Like I said The files from this site work great. My 2100 has red light and speed camera protection.

Does anyone know of a different program that will not cost me money to just load POIs onto the navigon?

I myself just spent the $50.00 bucks, it's the bomb.
The Garmin and Tom Tom users only wish the could load individual poi files and have them all running at the same time. Right now I have 12 POI files running with different approach angles,sounds and a list of adjustments.

it's worth the money

Hey Bob,where/how do you put in the Redlight/Speedcamera in the 2100 Navigon?
I have the C330 also.I have the folder of Redlight/Speed camera in my C330
I see the folders in the Navigon when I click the removable Sd card that is in the 2100 that came with it,lower states.
I just put in the 1.2 update.Wow took a long time.Thanks
Ron

Can you load poi files on the 7100 with the POI-warner program. Can you put the red light and speed camera protecion on it. So far every thing I tried I could not get it to work on the SD card.

I just purchased and added 7100 maps and poi info to my 2100 navigon. I already have the data on my computer, so if anyone wants to buy the 7100 sd card for $15, let me know (includes shipping.)

When I go to POI-Warner,an click to register for my Navigon 2100 mobile navigator6 or is it Navigator4 to start at? which one do I click on for the setup download? Has 3 different setup to click on? and what's next after that?
How much is it in US dollars? is it a one time Charge? Thanks
Ron

Hi Ron,
Your Navigon uses Navigator6. Not sure what the cost is today, because of the changing dollar, however it is a onetime charge.

Bob

Thanks Bob.The last time I checked the price was around $44xx.
Sorry did not get back.We were at the Lake.That help me to know it's a one time fee.
May get it but may be latter some time this year.Thanks.
Ron

Hi pooperscooper,
I am interested in Gettig those Navigon 7100 Maps from you for ,my Navigon 2100.Let me know your address & contact details .
Thanks

Is POI-Warner still the only option for loading POI files into a Navigon 7100?

The http://www.navigating.de is a little confusing as it lists Navigon 4, 5, and 6. Does only one apply to the 7100?

Looks like the program is about US $38 (includes VAT?)
