Greetings, I just wanted to personally thank you for the consideration you have taken in my order

Mercedes Garmin Map Pilot (Audio 20) SD-card based sat navs can be enhanced with additional POI's and the locations of stationary and mobile safety cameras via POIbase.

Both the POIbase PC application and POIbase for PC can be used for this.

POIbase is compatible with:

  • Mercedes Garmin Map Pilot (Audio 20)

Generally speaking, all Garmin Map Pilot versions can be enhanced with POI's and safety cameras via POIbase. However, as older versions are somewhat buggy as regards POI's, we recommend upgrading to the newest Garmin Map Pilot version. The navigation software can be upgraded via the Mercedes Download-Manager.

The download manager also allows you to backup your SD card, which is advisable.

For POIbase for PC to automatically detect your SD card as Garmin Map Pilot, you will also need to install the free Garmin POI-Loaderon your PC.

Features & Notes

Mercedes Garmin Map Pilot Download Manager

  • Automatic device recognition via POIbase for PC (for Garmin POI-Loader users)
  • Manual device selection in the POIbase Web-Version
  • Safety cameras can be displayed on the map (generic safety camera icon)

  • Audio warnings when approaching safety cameras (not direction-sensitive, volume can be adjusted)
  • POI's can be selected as destination in radius search

Unfortunately, Garmin Map Pilot will only display safety cameras with one generic icon, so it's not possible to differentiate between stationary safety cameras and potential mobile ones. Thus we recommend only installing the stationary safety cameras.
