Which index is that exactly?

On my GPSmap 62s, all POIs are listed in the nearest POI search,
even the one with extended types. On my GPSmap 60CSx POIs with
exteded type are not findable.

But: The 60CSx needs 2 sec. to list all POIs in the near, the 62s
needs 6 sec. Looks like the 62s does not use the index but generates
it somehow itself new.
