Can't get kml poi files to run on primo 2.4

Fri Nov 27, 2015 4:42 pm

Hi guys

I can't get downloaded kml poi files to run after trying to follow this instructions...
I can't find the advance settings on primo when its running on my sat nav, help please ! ...

POI installations

1. Turn off the write protection of the Memory Card if it is on.

2. Connect the memory card or the navigation device to PC, then create the following path on the memory card: igo8/content/userdata/POI.

3. Download, unzip and copy the .kml files into the POI destination folder. Or download the .kml file straight to the POI folder.

4. Restart your navigation device.

5. Run the navigation software and switch to Advanced mode. Choose the Manage POI icon.

6. Choose downloaded POIs (kml file); then choose Edit and turn on the POI and set the distance of POI icon visibility. The default icon for the new POI is Google Earth's globe so you may want to change it to something else relevant.

7. In the Navigation menu choose Find POI, and choose as Destination if you wish to check it.

Note: some POIs might not be reachable on your map, if the map is not detailed enough.

Do you mean existing poi folder ?

Or do I create another new content folder in the root of the card ?

No, you have an existing content folder with in it subfolders like map, voice, etc.
In THAT content folder you should have or create a subfolder called "userdata" and in that subfolder a sub-subfolder called "poi".
