Does anyone know what folder I should save my KLM files to for custom POIs? I'm creating the files with Avic Feeds on a mac using Parallels, but I have to save the files manually because the card is not automatically recognized. This is for a Z120. Thanks.

I I used AViC feeds software to open the KML and then used the software's "transfer to SD card" option.

Thanks. Because I'm using Avic feeds on a mac, I cannot transfer directly to the SD card from the application. I need to save the files to my hard drive then copy them to the SD card. Are you able to see what folder on your card the KLM files are in? For example, favorites are located in:

 

SD Card -> PC -> POINT -> TONAVI

If you are using Parallels on a Mac you can indeed save to the SD card. Just make sure the SD card is selected so Windows can see it is inserted as a drive.

Yes, I can save files to my SD card, but I don't know what folder to put the files in so that the nav unit can see them.

it should create the proper folders. Just save to the card.

Sounds like you've gotten it to work. Can you tell me what folders the application created on your card?

Okay, finally got it figured out. Need to create folder "NDB" then "CUSTOMPOI" and drop your KLM files in there. Haven't had time to see what happens with custom icons yet.
