Newbie with Garmin 680...

Hi,

My name is Pierre, I am french and I will try to do my best to explain my problem(s).

I have searched over the forum about these issues but cant find something that fit my problems.

1- Is there a way to use the USB port as a power inlet and use the GPS at the same time ? I have read some tricks from other members but doesnt seems to work on my 680 :cry:

2- Is there a way to get the "Personnal POI" to be implemented on the Map. Meaning that the icons and name of the POI (i.e. Tim Horton's) appears on the map all the time ? Or maybe I have to transfer them to another folder ?

Sorry guys if these questions was already asked, but I can't find anuthing that fits the 680 (or 660...)

BTW I am more than pleased to join this community and hope to help if I can ;)

Cheers,
Pierre

You can make a sub-directory under C:Garmin\POI and put your Personal CSV and GPX files in there, then load them to your GPS with POI Loader.
