+rich731 Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Does anyone have any expertise in creating custom POIs? I am trying to create POIs with proximity alerts of 1 mile, custom icons and custom alert sounds. Is that even possible to do on a Colorado? I am using a Mac with POI loader and Bobcat. Thanks, Rich Quote Link to comment
+Red90 Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 (edited) Without explaining how to create custom POIs (which you can research all by yourself), I would suggest using one of the GSAK "Nuvi" macros. They work great on the Colorado/Oregon units. Edited September 3, 2008 by Red90 Quote Link to comment
+twolpert Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I have seen at least one post indicating success with proximity alerts on the Colorado, at least with newer firmware. I wouldn't count on custom alert sounds, however. The Colorado has only the piezo-electric squeeker, so your options are limited. Quote Link to comment
+Team Chinook Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 My Colorado gives me a proximity alert on Caches. Heed Red90's advice and checkout the gsak macro forum. Very creative things being done you can take advantage of. Quote Link to comment
