NOTE: If you are copying a speedtrap file to your Magellan CrossoverGPS make sure

that it is copied to the speedtraps folder on your CrossoverGPS (this is a subfolder

of the POI folder). This is the folder where the preloaded speedtrap file is stored

and this is where all new speedtrap files you may want to upload should also be

stored.

When you have finished copying files, remove the USB cable from the Magellan

CrossoverGPS.

Creating a New POI FIle

There are two ways to create a POI file. You can either add POIs individually, or you can

import a character delimited file containing the information required to plot the POIs. To

plot a POI, each item must have a name, longitude, and latitude. Longitude and latitude

must be in decimal format.
