3 Functionality 3.1 Route To plan a route from an automatically determined current position (GPS receiver is switched on) select a destination point on the map or determine it in the program menu. It is also possible to mark the starting point on the map or set it in the program menu, when there is no established GPS connection. 3.1.1 Planning a route from a position determined automatically 1. When the GPS/GLONASS receiver is switched on and connection with satellites is established the current position is determined automatically. To have a route planned from this position select an object which will be the destination point by tapping on the map. Use “+”/“–” buttons to zoom in/out for easier finding the object in the map. 2. Having selected the object, press “Cursor” in the bottom part of the screen (Fig.5). 3. Press “Go!” in the bottom left corner of the screen (Fig. 6). The program will automatically create a route to the point. Fig. 5 Fig. 6 Note! On maps, which do not contain the information for route planning (roads, buildings, other objects), the route will be displayed as a straight line connecting the current location and the selected destination point. 3.1.2 Planning a route basing on search results All route points can be as well set manually in the program menu. The program allows several options for finding objects in the map. 8
To proceed to these options, press “Menu” in the bottom left corner of the “Map” screen (Fig.7) and select “Find” (Fig.8). Fig. 7 Fig. 8 3.1.2.1 By address 1. Select “Menu” → “Find” → “By Address”. 2. Select country, settlement (city, town), street, a building in the street or another street that intersects it (Fig.9). Entry line will be displayed after pressing the corresponding data field. All parameters must be selected from the prompts dropping down at typing under the entry line. The virtual keyboard can be shown and hidden using the keyboard icon in the top right corner of the screen (Fig.10). Fig. 9 Fig. 10 A field becomes active only when the previous field has been filled out. If a field is not active when the previous parameter is set, this means that the map does not contain such information. For setting a partial address, for instance for finding a street, set the address till the street level and press “Result” in the top right corner of the screen (Fig. 9). When all address parameters have been set, the object will be shown in the “My route” screen (Fig. 6). 9
3. Press “Go!” in the bottom left corner of the “My route” screen to plan a route to the selected object, or press the address field (or object name field) to proceed to the “Properties” screen (Fig. 11) where you can choose to press “Go!” to plan a route to the selected point or set it as a starting point of the route by pressing “Set start”. “Route through” and “Finish” are active only when there is an existing route. Pressing of “Route through” adds the point to the existing route. When several points are added to the route the last added point becomes the Fig. 11 first one after the starting point. Pressing “Finish” makes the marked point the destination point of the route. The point previously determined as the destination becomes the last route point before the new destination point. 3.1.2.2 Nearest places It is important to determine the reference point in this search option. A reference point is a point in relation to which the nearest places will be found. 1. Select “Menu” → “Find” → “Nearest Places”. 2. For search of an object select one of the following reference points (Fig. 12): “Current location” – search of an object near the current position (the option is available only when GPS/GLONASS connection is established); “Cursor” – search of an object near the cursor on the map; “Postal address” – search of an object near a particular Fig. 12 address; “By route” (active when there is an existing route) – search of an object along the route; “Finish” (active when there is an existing route) – search of an object near the destination point; “History” – selection of an object form the list of objects that have been previously searched for. 3. Select the object category and subcategory where Fig. 13 available (Fig.13). 10
4. Start typing the name of the object and select the object from the prompts (Fig. 14). The virtual keyboard can be shown and hidden using the keyboard icon in the top right corner of the screen. All the objects are listed according to distance from the reference point: the nearest objects are shown at the top of the list, the farthest are at the bottom of the list. 5. Press “Go!” in the bottom left corner of the “My route” Fig. 14 screen (Fig. 15) to plan a route to the selected object, or tap on the object name field to proceed to the “Properties” screen (Fig. 16) where you can choose: Fig. 15 Fig. 16 “Go!” – the object becomes the destination point. If there is an existing route all its points except for the starting point will be deleted; “Set start” – the object becomes the starting point of the route; “Route through” (when there is an existing route) – the object becomes a route point. When several points are added, the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point; “Finish” (when there is an existing route) – the object becomes the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. 3.1.2.3 Friends This search option helps to see the current location of friends added in the “Navitel.Friends” service, and to plan a route to meet them. 1. Select “Menu” → “Find” → “Friends”. 2. Select a friend from the list (Fig.17). Fig. 17 11
A screen will display information on current location of the friend (Fig.18). 3. Press “Go!” in the bottom left corner of the screen (Fig.18) to plan a route to the friend’s location, or tap on the address field to proceed to the “Properties” screen, where you can choose: “Go!” – the friend’s location becomes the destination point. If there is an existing route all its points except for the starting point will be deleted; Fig. 18 “Set start” – the friend’s location becomes the starting point of the route; “Route through” (when there is an existing route) – the friend’s location becomes a route point. When several points are added the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point; “Finish” (when there is an existing route) – the friend’s location becomes the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. For more information on the “Navitel.Friends” service, please, refer to http://navitel.cz/support/instructions/navitelfriends. 3.1.2.4 Waypoints Coordinates of particularly interesting objects or objects which are often visited can be saved as waypoints (see point 5.3 “Creation of a waypoint”). A route can be planned to a waypoint previously created by the user. 1. To plan a route select “Menu” → “Find” → “Waypoints”. 2. Press the arrow to the right of the name field of the point (Fig. 19) to proceed to the “Properties” screen. 3. Select one of the following options in the “Properties” screen (Fig. 20): Fig. 19 Fig. 20 12
“Go!” – the point becomes the destination point. If there is an existing route all its points except for the starting point will be deleted; “Set start” – the point becomes the starting point of the route; “Route through” (when there is an existing route) – the point becomes a route point. When several points are added the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point; “Finish” (when there is an existing route) – the point becomes the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. 3.1.2.5 History This section of the menu contains all objects and addresses that have been searched for in the program with any search option. All objects are listed according to the date of search: the newest are at the top of the list, the oldest ones are at the bottom of the list. 1. Select “Menu” → “Find” → “History”. 2. Press the arrow to the right of the object (Fig. 21) to proceed to the “Properties” screen. 3. Select one of the following options in the “Properties” screen (Fig. 22): Fig. 21 Fig. 22 “Go!” – the object becomes the destination point. If there is an existing route all its points except for the starting point will be deleted; “Set start” – the object becomes the starting point of the route; “Route through” (when there is an existing route) – the object becomes a route point. When several points are added the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point; “Finish” (when there is an existing route) – the object becomes the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. 13
3.1.2.6 Favorites This section of the menu contains all objects and addresses that have been most often used as route points or most often searched for in the program with any search option. Unlike the “History” option all objects are listed here according to frequency of use – the objects used most often are at the top of the list. 1. Select “Menu” → “Find” → “Favorites”. 2. Press the arrow to the right of the object (Fig. 23) to proceed to the “Properties” screen. Fig. 23 3. Select one of the following options in the “Properties” screen (Fig. 24): “Go!” – the object becomes the destination point. If there is an existing route all its points except for the starting point will be deleted; “Set start” – the object becomes the starting point of the route; “Route through” (when there is an existing route) – the Fig. 24 object becomes a route point. When several points are added, the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point; “Finish” (when there is an existing route) – the object becomes the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. 3.1.2.7 By coordinates The search option helps to find an object by its coordinates. It is possible to input coordinates manually, or insert the coordinates which have been copied in the “Properties” screen of the object. The button for copying is to the right from the coordinates field (Fig.25). Fig. 25 Fig. 26 14
3.1.3 Route editing 1. Press the sign of an upcoming maneuver in the top left corner of the “Map” screen (Fig. 26). 2. Select one of the following options: “Stop Route Guidance” – removes the route from the map (Fig. 27). If the route simulation mode is switched on the “Stop demo” option will be displayed instead for stopping the route simulation. “Avoid” – indicates that further movement is no longer possible starting from the current position. The program will plan another route. “Demo route” (GPS/GLONASS receiver must be switched off) – starts simulation of movement along the route to see all maneuvers and other road information. Such demonstration helps to find the parts of the route that the user might want to avoid, and to plan an alternative route. Fig. 27 Fig. 28 “Go Next Via point” – deletes the next route point (Fig. 28). “Show route” – shows the complete route on the map, including all its points. “Settings” – displays the “Navigation” screen (see point 6.2) for setting navigation parameters. A route can also be edited by tapping on the map to mark a point and setting it as a starting, destination or other route point in the “Properties” screen. When there is an existing route, the last selected point may be determined as a new destination point by pressing “Go!”. All other points except for the starting point and the new destination point will be deleted. Pressing the “Set start” button determines the selected point as a starting point. Pressing the “Route through” button adds the selected point to the existing route. When several route points are added the last added one becomes the first route point after the starting point. Pressing the “Finish” button makes the selected object the destination point of the route. All route points will be retained, and the point previously set as the destination point becomes the last route point before the new destination point. Access to the route editing options is also possible via the main menu of the program. Press “Menu” in the bottom left corner of the main screen, then select “Route”. The menu contains the following options for route editing: “Edit route” (search for points with the “Find” options), “Show route”, “Avoid”, “Demo route”. Here you can stop route simulation and 15
delete a created route by pressing the “STOP” button in the upper right part of the screen near the information panel, which indicates the remaining distance and time to the destination point, and arrival time. This menu allows viewing the plan of the route (“Route plan”) containing information on every maneuver, including the name of the street and distance to the maneuver. Route export function for its further use or storing in another device, and route import function for storing routes from another device are also available here. To export the route press “Export”, select the folder for saving the route, the file type and enter the name of the route. At the bottom of the screen there is the “New folder” button for creating a new folder, and the “Up” button for navigation to the upper level of the catalogue of folders. The “Import” function allows viewing of recorded tracks and importing of routes, which are adjusted to the current navigation settings on importing: select the folder containing the recorded route and the type of the file. At the bottom of the screen there is the “New folder” button for creating a new folder, and the “Up” button for navigation to the upper level of the catalogue of folders. 3.2 Track recording Track recording is possible only with established GPS connection. Use the “Track record” button on the main panel of the “Map” screen to switch recording on (becomes red) or off (becomes grey). To show the button on the panel select “Menu” → “Settings” → “Interface” → “Map buttons” → “Track record” (the icon which a tick must be green). Switching on/off of the function is also possible from the Fig. 29 program menu. Select “Menu” → “Settings” → “Tracks” and set the “On/Off” slider in the “Track record” field (Fig. 29) in the corresponding position. Here the user can also set the track file format by means of a special slider. Tap on the “Track’s folder” field to select a folder to store track files (Fig. 30) and confirm by pressing “ОК” in the top right corner of the screen. Fig. 30 “Show latest 10 000 track points” allows displaying of the track covered within the last 10 000 seconds on the map. To switch the function on/off set the “On/Off” slider in the in the corresponding position. 16
3.3 Creation of a waypoint 1. To create a waypoint mark an object on the map • By tapping on the map, or • By finding the object with tone of the search options in the “Menu”. For example, select the object in the “History” option: “Menu” → “Find” → “History” → select an object (Fig. 31) → press Fig. 31 Fig. 32 the “Map” button in the top right corner of the “My route” screen (Fig. 32). 2. Press “Save WP” in the bottom right corner of the screen (Fig. 33). 3. Enter the name the point, set its description and determine its type (Fig. 34) in the “Waypoint” screen. If the name of the point is not set by the user the program will assign a three-character number to it. Fig. 33 Fig. 34 17
4 Settings Route settings, displaying of routes, road data, functional buttons, as well as program settings are determined in the “Settings” section of the menu. 4.1 Map settings Select “Menu” → “Settings” → “Map” to determine the settings for displaying a map and objects on the map. 4.1.1 Map orientation The following options of map orientation are available (Fig. 35): “Map’s north is on top” – the map view will always be north-oriented; “Rotate map with movement” – the map will be oriented in the travel direction. Set the switch in the corresponding position to select an option. 4.1.2 Automatic zoom The “Automatic zoom” function controls automatic map scaling depending on the speed and upcoming maneuvers. The following parameters for automatic scaling are adjustable in the program (Fig. 36): “Used scales” – setting of the minimum and maximum scales for automatic zooming; “Preferred zoom” – setting of a value of a preferred scale, which must fit in the range between the selected min. and max. used scales. Only manual map scaling is possible if the “Automatic zoom” function is switched off. To switch the function on/off set the “On/Off” slider in the corresponding position, as shown in figure 36. Fig. 35 Fig. 36 18
4.1.3 Visual effects The following visual effects are available for setting in the program: • Object border smoothing; • Smooth motion; • Smooth zoom (Fig. 37). Set the “On/Off” slider in a corresponding position to switch the function on/off. Fig. 37 The “Draw models from” option allows setting the map scale when 3D models of objects must be displayed (Fig. 38). Note! Activation of visual effects may increase the time for map rendering. 4.1.4 Map tilt To set the parameters of map tilt for 3D view of the map, set the slider leftward for minimum tilt (similar to 2D Fig. 38 mode) or rightward for a greater tilt (Fig.38). 4.1.5 Reset position The “Reset position” function helps to display current position (GPS cursor or a marked point), if the map was moved. It is possible to set the time after which the displaying will return to the current position (Fig. 38): 5 s, 10 s, 15 s, 20 s or “Never” (the function is off). 4.2 Navigation For navigation setting adjustment select “Menu” → “Settings” → “Navigation”. This menu section contains parameters that are taken into account on planning a route and movement along the route. 4.2.1 Vehicle The option helps to determine the mode of travel and type of vehicle for route planning (Fig. 39): pedestrian, bicycle, car/motorcycle, taxi, bus, emergency, delivery, truck. To determine the means of transport, tap on the Fig. 39 “Vehicle” field and the select the suitable option. The option is applicable only if the map contains corresponding data. 19
4.2.2 Route on roads/direct line Set the slider to a corresponding position to determine how the program should plan the route: on roads, or as a straight line connecting the starting and the destination points (Fig. 39). 4.2.3 Avoid The program allows avoiding certain road objects when the route is being planned. The following options may be switched on/off by setting the “On/ Off” slider in a corresponding position: • “Avoid toll roads”; • “Avoid unpaved roads”; • “Avoid ferry connections” (Fig. 40). When an option is on, the program will try to avoid planning a route which would include such objects. Fig. 40 4.2.4 Guidance prompt Set the slider to one of the positions within the interval between “More distance” (the earliest possible) and “Less distance” (the latest possible) to determine the time when the program must inform of the upcoming maneuver (Fig. 40). 4.2.5 Lock on Road This function assures displaying of the current position in relation to the route. When the function is switched off the cursor may wobble, which occurs because of constant recalculation of current position of the receiver for example at any attempt to avoid even a tiny obstacle on the road, or at low quality of GPS signal. To “lock” the cursor on the road when the user follows the route the option must be on. Select one of the options with a slider: “Don’t lock” (the function is off); Closer 20m; Closer 50m; Closer 100m; Fig. 41 Closer 200m; Closer 500m; Auto (Fig. 41). 4.2.6 Rerouting The “Rerouting” option allows determining the situation when the created route must be replanned automatically by the program. The user can set two parameters here: recalculation of the route in case of deviation from the current route or when a faster route can be planned. 20
“When off-route” – the parameter allows setting the distance of deviation from the current route, when the program must replan a route from the current position: determine the distance by setting the slider in a corresponding position within the intervals of 20 m to 100 m. “When found a route faster” – the parameter allows setting the time for the cases, when there is a possibility for the program to replan a route that would be faster than the set time value: determine the time by setting the slider in a corresponding position within the intervals of 5 min to 20 min. 4.3 POI filter For adjustment of settings for point of interest (POI) filtration select “Menu” → “Settings” → “POI filter”. This submenu represents the points of interest divided into categories (Fig.42). Tapping on “+” to the left of the category opens the list of subcategories. Tap on the category name field to switch displaying of all POI of the given category on/off.
