Lots of interesting discussions here but to answer the OP. BaseCamp is designed to send data either to the GPX folder on your device if you send data to it, or if you send data to the card it will create the correct folder, which is Garmin/GPX.

@Dunny

They are available in BaseCamp if as I posted above you either have your zumo connected or if you've loaded POI files to a removable drive as BaseCamp can read them from both. POIs that are part of the map database are also available in BaseCamp

.gpx files can contain routes, tracks, waypoints etc

POIs as defined by Garmin are .gpi files and cannot be imported into lists etc in BaseCamp.

or you can connect your 550 to computer, and use file explorer to look at the 550 files and copy/paste the Camp POI files to a folder on your computer, and from computer then copy/paste those POI files into a new List folder in Basecamp, those POI files probably have a .gpx file extension POI files...

It'll only be highlighted if you have a device connected containing POI files, these end in .gpi

Afraid you can't AFAIK. What you can do is copy them from your device to a removeable drive, either virtual or physical, and use that instead of your device.

Note your device must be connected or you need to copy the poi files to a removeable drive and use that instead.

That's exactly as I understood it

That's fine too, just that the latest Garmin devices shouldn't use it to update the Garmin CN maps or you lose junction view and some other functionality as Express installs more than just the map during a so called 'map' update

Agreed. That really is the simple solution and will make every future update simple too
