Thank you for downloading this Beta version of the Hydragas Register POI.

This is a 'Beta' product and therefore must be considered unfinished. Please use the product and report any feedback to feedback@hydragas.co.uk

Business entries only are included, and the data is the same as the Hydragas Register online as of 09 April 2011.



============
INSTALLATION
============

You should have the following files:

readme.txt
Hydrolastic pump.bmp
Hydrolastic pump.ov2


Microsoft Windows instructions:
The last two files above need to be copied into the maps folder on your TomTom Navigation device.

To do this, plug your device into the computer using a Micro USB lead (provided with the navigation device). Then switch on the device and on the sat-nav screen, it will ask whether to connect to computer. Choose 'yes'. If Windows pops up a box asking what to do, select 'Open Folder to View Files'. If not, go into My Computer and open the TomTom from there.

You will then find a folder with the map. The name depends on the version of your TomTom, but something like Western_Europe_1GB.

Copy and paste the two files into this folder. Then open TomTom home and eject your device, disconnect it and off you go!

TOMTOM INSTRUCTIONS
===================

These are the instructions TomTom provide for adding POIs to your Navigation device.

How to add a POI database to a TomTom Navigator map
A POI database consists of

    * a file with extension OV2 (e.g. Hilton_Hotels.OV2)
    * optionally, a companion file with extension BMP (e.g. Hilton_Hotels.BMP) 

To make such databases visible on a TomTom Navigator map, make sure of the following:

    * You have TomTom Navigator version 1.50 or higher.
    * The file(s) are stored in the same directory on your Pocket PC where the map data are located.
    * TomTom Navigator (re)opened the map after the OV2 file was put there (if necessary, restart TomTom Navigator).
    * In the POI tab of your TomTom Navigator preferences, make sure "Display POI" option is checkmarked, as well as the POI themselves. 

Example: to use the database Hilton_Hotels.OV2 in the Germany map, you might do the following:
Connect your Pocket PC to the PC and start Microsoft ActiveSync®. Use the menu option File ---> Explore to explore the directories on your Pocket PC. Browse to the directory
    \My Documents\Germany
or to
    \Storage Card\Germany
if the map was installed on a storage card. (Usually, the Explore option will start in "My Documents" anyway, so you will immediately see the "Germany" directory.) Copy the file Hilton_Hotels.OV2 (and optionally the file Hilton_Hotels.BMP) to this directory.

Next, on your Pocket PC, re-open the Germany map in TomTom Navigator. If necessary, re-start the TomTom Navigator application (using the TomTom Navigator menu option "Exit").

Finally, in the POI tab of your TomTom Navigator Preferences, make sure "Hilton Hotels" has a checkmark - otherwise the hotels will not be displayed on your screen. Even if you do not display them on your screen, you can now "navigate to" a Hilton Hotel, find the Hilton Hotels near your location etc.
If you experience problems, here are some possibilities:

    * the OV2 file is not in the same directory as the map
    * the OV2 file does not contain any POI, or at least no POI within the borders of the map
    * you are using a TomTom Navigator version older than version 1.50 

=============
USING THE POI
=============

Click 'Navigate To', then click 'Point of Interest'. Select where you wish to search nearby, e.g. near you, near destination, etc. Then click more, and select Hydrolastic Pump from the list.

=======
REMOVAL
=======

If you ever need to remove this from your Navigation Device, simply delete the two files you have added to the map folder, taking care not to delete anything else.
