Note: When navigating, POI icons can be disabled together with street names (Page
83). If you still need this information during your journey, just drag the map to disable
Lock-to-Position (Page 27). This will restore street names and POI icons
immediately. Now tap Lock to reactivate Lock-to-Position.
Tip: Tap the map on or near a POI item to see the list of the names of the nearest
POIs in a popup list, if it is enabled (Page 46). To see the details of a particular POI
in the list, tap the blue ’i’ icon on the right. If you have too may POIs nearby, this list
may not be complete. In the Cursor menu (Page 31) there is a button called POI that
leads you to the screen of all nearby POI items. There you can open them one by
one to see their details, and select any of them as a route point.
4.2.9 Speed cameras
There are special POI types in MioMap. There is a built-in database of fixed and
mobile speed cameras. It is also possible to add new cameras to enhance this
database. They are not shown in POI lists, but they are shown on the map with
special icons. Speed cameras are described in detail here: Page 53
4.2.10 Contacts
A different type of special POIs are Contacts. When MioMap is started, it will attempt
to recognise the addresses in your Mio DigiWalker C510’s Contact database. All
contacts with the address recognised will be shown as My POIs in a group named
Contacts.
If they exist, both the home and work addresses of a contact will be imported. For
example if you have the home and office addresses of John Smith, you will have two
POIs, one called ‘John Smith (Home)’, and another one as ‘John Smith (Work)’.
4.2.11
Elements of the Active Route
MioMap uses a multi-destination routing system in which you have a start point (your
current location if GPS position is available), a destination, the line of the active leg
of the route, and optionally via points and inactive legs. They are all shown on the
map.
4.2.11.1
The start point, via points and the destination
These points are represented by flags.
