Find your Hungry Horse whilst on the road by downloading our location files to your Sat Nav.
It's simply done, download our POI (points of interest) files onto your Sat Nav or computer. Use the download instructions below and consult your device user manual before downloading / uploading any POI files to your system. (Files updated 09/02/2009) Files are provided for TomTom, Navman and Garmin
TomTom
Download the TomTom_hungry horse.zip file and save it to a location on your computer. Extract the files. This download contains two files: hungryhorse.ov2 & hungryhorse.bmp
- Attach your TomTom unit / TomTom Memory Card to your computer (see your TomTom documentation for instructions on how to do this).
- Using My Computer (located in the Windows Start Menu) navigate to the Great Britain Map directory or Western Europe map directory (if you are using a MAC use Finder to locate the directory). Copy the hungryhorse.ov2 and hungryhorse.bmp files to this directory.
- Now, using your TomTom, go to Change Preferences > Manage POI > Add POI and select Hungry Horse.
- To navigate to your chosen Hungry Horse select: Navigate to… > Point of Interest > Hungry Horse. Then select one of the restaurants on the list and follow the on-screen instructions.
For more information go to the TomTom website
NavMan
Every version of NAVMAN has different instructions for uploading the POI file. Please download the
Navman Hungry Horse POI zip file and refer to your instruction manual.You can download instruction manuals for all models of NAVMAN equipment from www.navman.com (select “User Manuals” from the Left Hand Side) specify the proximity alert distances for each individual file.
Garmin
In order to use the POI's on Garmin Satnav equipment you need the Garmin POI Loader software which can be found at: www.garmin.co.uk. Make sure that all POI files (.csv and .bmp) are in the same folder - i.e. if you use these files along with other restaurants POI’s, make sure these are in the same folder as the POI's from Hungry Horse. (Each time you upload new POI files it wipes out any previously loaded custom points so make sure all the POI files are in the same folder.
Uploading the files:
- Unzip the POI files into a folder (eg "My Documents\Garmin POI's")
- Make sure POI Loader software is installed and then connect your Garmin Unit (or memory card) to your PC using the supplied USB lead (or card reader)
- If the software does not automatically start, open it now.
- Browse for your POI folder and follow the on screen instructions.
- Garmin recommend using the auto mode but there is a manual upload selection where you can specify the proximity alert distance for each individual file.
