Proximity settings?

 
Fri, 01/04/2008 - 10:24am

I have new Garmin 760 and just used the POI Loader to add a custom POI from this site to internal memory. The process went smoothly and I can see the data on my 760 under Where To/Extras/Custom POIs but I want to set proximity alerts but I don't see "Proximity Points" in Tools/Settings. Any advice? Thanks.

You set proximity alerts

for speed in the title of your individual POI file
OR you can set the distance and/or speed for the proximity alarm by putting POI Loader in manual mode when transferring files to GPSr.
This is all covered in the FAQS and various threads ! Do a search for proximity alerts

I was going to say to use

I was going to say to use POILoader manually as well. That has come in handy!
