Can I just copy only this speed trap POI (WAV.gpi) into my nuvi 255W without the others POI's. Copy only this file into the SD POI folder and install it into the nuvi.
Thanks for your advice

If my gmxt was not connected after a certain period(meaning request to connect several times & i click 'No') will there be a delay in the Speed Trap/alert spots/as in not accurate position?
Thanks..

Of course you can. You don't have to have it installed into your Nuvi as all Garmin Nuvis can read POIs directly from the SD card without having to copy them into the Nuvi's internal memory. As a practice, all of my custom POIs and non-MFM maps reside on the memory card, not in internal memory.
hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you meant by connection, but I assume you were referring to a constant satellite fix. All POIs are set to pre-determined coordinates and/or current speed. If your current position is not locked or your have a poor accuracy, you will get inaccurate or non-functional alerts.
If your GPS has difficulty in locking to overhead satellites despite having a wide view of the open sky, stop your car for a short while to allow your GMXT to receive a 3D fix on your position, then continue your journey as usual.
