How Do I Load Multiple Poi Files On To A Garmin 7200 Sd Card?
You can use POI Loader
How do I load multiple POI files with POI Loader?
Each time you use POI Loader, it erases the custom points of interest in your GPS and replaces them with new ones.
If you want more than one category in your GPS, you need to load multiple POI files at the same time.
Here’s how:
* create a directory for POI files on your computer (if you haven’t already)
* place all of the POI files you want loaded together in this directory
* start POI loader and select the directory that contains your POI files
* POI Loader will find all of the POI files and let you set alerts for each one
When you’re finished, data from all of the files will be loaded together in your GPS.
Another (more manageable) method…
Load up one POI file.
Bring up your card in Windows explorer – by either putting the GPS into Mass Storage mode, or by loading the card in a card reader.
Explore to GarminPOI – the file will be named POI.gpi (IIRC).
Rename the file to something more memorable.
Then load up a new file with POI loader, making sure you don’t clear all the files.
Repeat as desired.
If you copy the .gpi files to your PC, you will be able to selectively load them up, or remove them as needed.
Although POI loader will only create one gpi file, the GPS will read any *.gpi file in the POI folder.
