Neil, thank you for help and clarity, I don't know why I did not try to put a POI file on the SD card before you suggested it, great news is it worked, I don't understand why it did not when I put it on the main file system but that is history.

I am sorry if you think I have wasted a new thread on this subject but in my defence I believe I was lead astray by the on board help that points the reader to garmin.com/product/poiloader and that there is no POI folder in the file structure, probley me being a bit synical about extra anti tamper measures from Garmin and the fact my previous simulation failed to display my local camera.

If nothing else, if a new member with a 42/52 series model wants cameras on their machines we all now know how to do it, just add a POI file. Can't think why Garmin dropped this file on build, you usually get sample camera's as an advert for the product.

To everyone who participated in this thread thank you, as usual I have learnt a lot from you all.
