Magellan eXplorist 210 - Manual (Page 40)

Points of Interest 37
All of the POI’s that you have saved as well as background map POI’s that came with your eXplorist can be
accessed using the POI database. Once the database has been accessed and the POI selected you can view or
edit the POI.
Highlights of the POI database are:
• Searching for POI’s you have saved, nearest to your position or in alphabetical order.
• Searching for POI’s that have been preloaded into the eXplorist, nearest to your position or in
alphabetical order.
• Ability to edit POI’s you have saved.
• Ability to delete POI’s you have saved.
• Function letting you view a POI (one’s you have saved or preloaded) on the map.
• Provides another means to save a preloaded POI as a user-entered POI.
• While viewing the list of POI’s, the bearing and distance from your present position is displayed at the
bottom of the screen.
