NOTE: Only in applications of non touch-screen installations is the use of the Prodigy ONE.2 remote control necessary and included as a standard item. For most applications the direct touch-screen control of Prodigy ONE.2 functions is the primary control mechanism, but if you wish to control Prodigy ONE.2 with the RF remote as well, it is available as an optional accessory. Page 8 Quick Start Guide
Getting Started Controlling Prodigy ONE.2 Depending on your application, you have a few ways you can control your Prodigy ONE.2 system. Option 1 If you have a vehicle with a compatible touch-screen head unit, most instances of Prodigy ONE.2 integration will allow direct, on screen control of the Prodigy ONE.2 menu icons and functions. Your installer will be able to clarify if your vehicle is capable and includes touch screen control. Most Prodigy ONE.2 systems will have touch-screen control capability. There are some instances (such as using Prodigy ONE.2 through an A/V AUX input) where the touch screen control capability simply does not exist for Prodigy ONE.2 interface. Option 2 Controlling Prodigy ONE.2 can also be done with the wireless RF remote control. It features a track pad to move an on-screen cursor, UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT navigation arrows and several other dedicated function soft key buttons for quick access of features.This remote is optional on all Prodigy ONE.2 systems except for non-touch screen applications where it is standard because it’s the primary method of control. Option 3 A third (optional) measure of controlling Prodigy ONE.2 is to use a USB Windows compatible mouse to move the on-screen cursor and activate the various features. There are numerous wired and wireless options for these devices, so please check with your installer if you wish to operate Prodigy ONE.2 in this way. Please keep in mind that traditional “desktop” mouse devices are not recommended because of the safety issues they impose on operating Prodigy ONE.2 with such a device while driving. Configuring Prodigy ONE.2 Prodigy ONE.2 is configured for your application from the factory so many of the critical settings are already done. You’ll need to choose whether or not you want to automatically launch Navigation every time Prodigy ONE.2 begins. This should only take a few minutes. Auto Run Navigation Launch Prodigy ONE.2 is default configured to launch into Navigation mode each time it turns on. This is so that, when you access Prodigy ONE.2 screens, the Navigation application is already running and ready to go. Most installations that utilize a Prodigy ONE.2 will have this as the primary application, so INTRAPHEX engineers made it easy to access. If you wish to have Prodigy ONE.2 boot to the main menu screen instead of directly into Navigation, you can simply go to the System menu icon and choose “Auto Run Navi Off” . Please see page 28 for details. The remaining adjustments of screen resolution and type are configured at the factory for your particular application of Prodigy ONE.2, so there are no user adjustable parameters for you to worry about beyond what’s described in this section. Quick Start Guide Page 9
Navigation Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation functionality is intuitive and easy to learn. This section contains instruction on these functions and features of the Navigation software: • Getting Started - Configuring Your Navigation System • Menu and Map Screen Detail (what the icons/symbols mean) • Methods of Choosing a Destination • Example of Direct Address Entry • Example of Navigating to an Intersection • Examples of Navigating to a POI Automatic Start of Navigation Prodigy ONE.2 starts for the first time in Navigation rather than the Main Menu screen with the icons. Should you wish to change Prodigy ONE.2 to start up with the Main Menu screen first, you can set the system to “Auto Navi Off” in the System menu. See page 28. Getting Started - Configurations When you use the Prodigy ONE.2’s Navigation software for the first time, you must configure it with your preferences of language, voice prompts, regional settings, route planning options and acceptance of the End User License Agreement. Chances are your installer will have completed this step for you and the configurations are already set. Should you need to complete the initial configurations, simply start Navigation and follow the on-screen prompts choosing the appropriate choice for the selection. Please note that you can change any of these configurations at any time later, but you must at least complete the Configuration Wizard to provide the initial (default) settings to begin using Navigation. 1) Select Language, then choose “Done”. 2) Accept the End User License Agreement by choosing the “Accept” button. 3) When the Configuration Wizard begins and you’re ready, choose “Next”. 4) Select your preferred language and voice style for any voice prompts that the navigation system will provide (if you have voice prompts enabled in your Sound and Warning settings). Once selected, choose “Next”. x4 5) If needed, modify the time format and unit settings. Once selected, choose “Next”. If no changes need to be made simply leave as is and choose “Next”. 6) If needed, modify the route planning options. Once selected, choose “Next”. If no changes need to be made simply leave as is and choose “Next”. 7) The initial setup should be complete at this step. The final step asks if you wish to allow anonymous collection data to validate mapping and GPS accuracy. Choose “Yes” or “No”. 8) After the Setup Wizard is complete, the Navigation menu appears and you can start using Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation. Page 10 Quick Start Guide
Main Menu Screen Buttons Once Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation begins, the main menu displays. This allows the user to quickly enter a destination in one of several ways, view the map directly or configure any of the additional Navigation settings and preferences. Show Map - Select this to start navigating on the map. The button itself is a miniature live map that shows your current position, the recommended route and the surrounding map area. Select the button to enlarge the map to the full screen. Choose “Menu” in the lower left corner to return to the main menu screen (as shown above). Find - Select this to choose a destination by entering an address or selecting a point of interest (POI), a location on the map or one of your Favorite destinations. You can also look up your recent destinations from the Smart History, enter a coordinate or use the location saved in a photo. When internet connection is available, Google Local search can be a further help to find your destination. My Route - Select this to display the route parameters and the route in its full length on the map. You can also perform route-related actions such as editing or cancelling your route, setting a start point for the route, picking route alternatives, avoiding parts of the route, simulating navigation or adding the destination to your Favorites. More - Select this to change the way the Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation software preferences and settings. Power (Exit) Screen Icon - Select this to exit Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation. Remember that you do not have to completely exit Navigation to switch between other Prodigy ONE.2 applications. G Button (Prodigy ONE.2 Remote) - You can switch between applications without exiting Navigation by pressing (and holding) the “G” button on the Prodigy ONE.2 remote for 1 second (if remote is present in your system). This Quick Start Guide covers basic route entry options for the Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation system. Please visit the INTRAPHEX web site for additional resources on the complete navigation user’s guide, including Advanced Settings and Preferences. Quick Start Guide Page 11
Methods of Choosing a Destination The Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation software offers you several ways of choosing your destination: • Enter a full street address to a specific destination. • Enter a full street address with zip code (doing so speeds up the search for street names). • Enter part of an address with a just a street name or an intersection to get in the general vicinity. • Use a built-in Point of Interest (POI) as your destination. • Select a location on the map with the Find on Map feature. • Use a previously saved Favorite destination. • Select a location from the History of previously used destinations. • Enter the GPS coordinates of the destination (including coordinates you have in digital photos). Example of a Direct Address Entry If you know at least a part of the address to which you wish to navigate, it is the quickest way to select the exact destination of the route. Conveniently by using the same “Find Address” screen, you can choose to navigate by entering even partial address information or an intersection. To navigate to a direct address from the main menu: 1) Choose “Find”. 2) Choose “Find Address”. 3) If necessary, change the state and/or city displayed by choosing the “State” or “City” button as needed. Hint: If the desired entry does not display upon entry of the first few letters in the entry line, choose the “Results” button to display more possibilities quickly without needing to finish typing long entries. When the correct entry is selected, choose the “OK” button (green check mark) in the entry line. 4) Enter the street name by choosing the “Street” button. When the correct entry is selected, choose the “OK” button (green check mark) in the entry line. 5) Enter the house number by choosing the “” button. The keyboard’s “123” button enables numeric entry. 6) After entering the street address, choose the “Done” button. 7) When the map screen appears choose “Next” to review the route parameters. After a short summary of the route parameters, the 12345 map appears showing the entire route. 8) Finally, choose “Go” to begin navigating to your chosen destination. Tip: If the chosen destination is one you will use frequently, before choosing “Next” to confirm the destination, put it on the list of your Favorites first by choosing the “More” button, then “Add to Favorites”, give a name for the new Favorite and choose “Done” to save the location. Name It! The map with the destination returns automatically, then choose “Go” just as in Step 8 above! Page 12 Quick Start Guide
Example of Navigating to an Intersection You can navigate to a general destination by choosing to navigate to an intersection. By using the same “Find Address” screen, you can choose to navigate by entering even partial address information or an intersection. To navigate to an intersection from the main menu: 1) Choose “Find”. 2) Choose “Find Address”. 3) If necessary, change the state and/or city displayed by choosing the “State” or “City” button as needed. Hint: If the desired entry does not display upon entry of the first few letters in the entry line, choose the “Results” button to display more possibilities quickly without needing to finish typing long entries. When the correct entry is selected, choose the “OK” button (green check mark) in the entry line. 4) Enter the street name by choosing the “Street” button. When the correct entry is selected, choose the “OK” button (green check mark) in the entry line. 5) Enter the second street name by choosing the “” button. • If only a few intersecting streets exist, their list appears immediately. • In case of a longer street, the keyboard screen appears. Start entering the name of the intersecting street on the keyboard. As soon as the street names that match the entered string can be Street 2 shown on one screen, their list appears automatically. Select from the list. 6) After entering the second street name of the intersection, choose the “Done” button. 7) When the map screen appears choose “Next” to review the route parameters. After a short summary of the route parameters, the map appears showing the entire route. 8) Finally, choose “Go” to begin navigating to your chosen destination. Tip: If one or both of the intersections happens to be a numbered street instead of alphabetical, you can easily switch to numeric entry by hitting the “123” button at the lower left corner of the keyboard screen. Quick Start Guide Page 13
Example of Navigating to a POI (From a Preset List) There a couple ways in which you can utilize a Point of Interest (POI) as your target for establishing a destination. Since many people utilize the POI listings to discover what’s around them, choosing the destination based on what’s listed nearby or en route is one of the most intuitive ways to determine that destination. “Find Places” Right Side Menu Preset Choices • If an active route is already entered, choosing the named preset searches along the route (or at the destination if indicated) for matches. • If there is no active route entered, choosing the named preset searches around the current GPS position. • If the current position is not available (no GPS signal), Find Places Preset List Menu searching occurs around the last known GPS position. To navigate to a preset listed POI from the main menu: 1) Choose “Find”. 2) Choose “Find Places”. 3) From the right side menu preset choices, select the category from which you’d like to display results. Gas Station / Parking / Restaurant / Accommodation (Hotel) Hint: Remember if you do not have a route already entered, the listing will show choices that are nearest your current or last known GPS position. 4) Upon choosing a category, a list of choices will display and you can use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the list. Choose the entry you wish to use for your POI navigation target. 5) When the map screen appears choose “Next” to review the route Choose Category parameters. After a short summary of the route parameters, the map appears showing the entire route. 6) Finally, choose “Go” to begin navigating to your chosen POI destination. Choose Entry Tip: If you wish to collect information about your destination, simply press the “i” button when the map screen appears in Step 5 to learn any additional information before selecting that as your chosen POI destination. Page 14 Quick Start Guide
Example of Navigating to a POI (From a Category List) Rather than the previous example of a pre-selected list of what the navigation system thinks you might be seeking, you also have the choice to navigate to a POI by selecting from a custom category listing. This method could cover virtually any scenario of possibilities that encompass searching and selecting a POI. “Find Places Custom Search” Menu Choices • Around Here - Searches based on GPS position or last known GPS position if no GPS signal is found. • In a Town/City - Searches a specific town or city you must input. Results display by distance from city center. • Around Destination - Searches destination (if entered). Results display by distance from destination. Find Places Custom Search POI Menu • Along Route - Searches along a route (if entered). This is useful to minimize a lengthy detour from the route. To navigate to a category listing POI from the main menu: 1) Choose “Find”. 2) Choose “Find Places”. 3) Choose “Custom Search” 4) From the menu choices, select the method from which you’d like search for a POI category. Around Here / Town/City / Destination / Along Route Hint: Remember if you do not have a route already entered, the listing will show choices that are nearest your current or last known GPS position (or not at all if it involves a destination). Also remember if you select “Town/City”, you must input the name. 5) Upon choosing a search method (and city if applicable), a list of categories displays. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the list. Choose the category you wish to use for your POI search or you can choose “List All Places” to display everything. 6) Next, a list of sub-category choices displays. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the list. Choose the sub- Choose Category category you wish to use for your POI navigation target. Choose Sub-Category Hint: A list of brands may appear. Select one brand or choose Choose Brand/Company “List All Places” to list all POI entries in the sub-category around the location or route. 7) Upon choosing a sub-category (and brand) POI choices appear. Choose Use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the Entry list. Choose the entry you wish to use for your final POI navigation target. 8) When the map screen appears choose “Next” to review the route parameters. After a short summary of the route parameters, the map appears showing the entire route. 9) Finally, choose “Go” to begin navigating to your chosen POI destination. Quick Start Guide Page 15
Example of Navigating to a POI (Direct Entry) If you already know the name and category of a POI you would like to identify for creating a route (or even to find its location from where you are presently), you can use the POI direct entry method. You can narrow the search to reflect only POI locations near a specific map location along your route, searching either the entire POI database or just a subsection of the database in a specific category. The more you narrow a search before entering a POI name, the shorter the lists will be for you to sort when choices appear on the screen. The same “Find Places Custom Search” menu is used as in previous POI Search examples with the same four main search filters - Around Here / Town/City / Destination / Along Route. Find Places Custom Search POI Menu To navigate to a specific POI entry from the main menu: 1) Choose “Find”. 2) Choose “Find Places”. 3) Choose “Custom Search” 4) From the menu choices, select the method from which you’d like search for a POI category. Around Here / Town/City / Destination / Along Route Hint: Remember if you do not have a route already entered, the listing will show choices that are nearest your current or last known GPS position (or not at all if it involves a destination). Also remember if you select “Town/City”, you must input the name. 5) Upon choosing a search method (and city if applicable), a list of categories displays. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the list. Choose the category you wish to use for your POI search or you can directly enter the category name by selecting the “Find by Name” button and entering text. Choose or Enter Name 6) Next, choose the sub-category from a list or you can directly enter the category name by selecting the “Find by Category Name” button and entering text. Sub-Category Hint: A list of brands may appear. Select one brand or choose POI Name “List All Places” to list all POI entries in the sub-category around the location or route, or simply choose “Find by Name” to type in the name directly. After entering a few letters, choose Choose “Results” to display the POI choices. POI 7) Upon choosing a sub-category (and brand) and displaying “Results”, POI choices appear. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys at right to scroll the list. Choose the entry you wish to use for your final POI navigation target. 8) When the map screen appears choose “Next” to review the route parameters. After a short summary of the route parameters, the map appears showing the entire route. 9) Finally, choose “Go” to begin navigating to your chosen POI destination. Page 16 Quick Start Guide
Other Navigation Features The Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation software has several other interesting features. Smart Zoom Smart Zoom provides a close up viewpoint to allow better view of the mapping screen in certain instances. • While following a route you have entered - When approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be flat so you can see the road in front of you. • While driving without an active route - Smart Zoom will zoom in if you drive slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed. Color Themes for Day/Night Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation software offers different daytime and night color profiles for both the map and the menu screens. It can also switch automatically between the daytime and the night profiles based on the current time and GPS position a few minutes before sunrise, when the sky has already turned bright, and a few minutes after sunset, before it becomes dark. • Daytime color themes are similar to paper road maps, and the menus are bright and easy to read. • Night time color themes use dark colors for large objects to keep the average brightness of the screen low for easier visual recognition and to reduce driver distraction when looking at the screen then back at the road. Route Planning Preferences Prodigy ONE.2 Navigation software offers four distinct preset route preference profiles. • Fast - Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually the best selection for fast and normal cars. • Short - Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes. It can be practical for slow vehicles. • Green - Gives a quick, but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings. Travel cost and CO2 emission calculations that are displayed are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account. • Easiest - Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult maneuvers. With this option, you can make your software to take, for example, the freeway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets. Speed Limit Warnings Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. The software is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your region or may not be fully correct for all roads in the map depending on circumstances that may have recently changed (such as new construction) or due to mapping data accuracy. Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Sound and Warning settings. You can set the relative speed above which the application initiates the warning. There are two ways in which you can be alerted: • Audio Warning - You receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the given percentage. • Visual Warning - The current speed limit is shown on the map as a number with a red circle when you exceed it and is otherwise hidden when speed is under the limit. You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time which is useful when you are unaware of the speed limits. Please visit the INTRAPHEX web site for additional resources on the complete navigation user’s guide, including Advanced Settings and Preferences. Quick Start Guide Page 17
Digital Media Player Prodigy ONE.2 plays virtually all your digital media files. You can store media on a self- powered, portable USB hard drive or USB thumb drive (neither is included) for use with the Prodigy ONE.2 Media Player. Do not store media files on the internal SD card! Compatible Media File Formats The file types compatible with the Media Player are: Audio Formats MP3, WMA, AAC, MKA, WAV, OGG, Speex, WAVPACK, FLAC, MPC, AMR, GSM, ADPCM, ALaw, MuLaw and MIDI Files Video Formats CoreAVC (H.264), AVCHD, MKV, MPEG-1, MPEG-4 part 2 (ASP), DivX, XviD, MJPEG, MSVIDEO1, FLV, Matroska, ASX, ASF, TS, PS, M2TS, 3GPP, MOV, AVI, MPEG-4 and NSV Files Photo Image Formats JPG (420, 422, 440), BMP, PNG, GIF and TIFF Files Choosing and Playing Media Files There are several ways in which to organize available media files and select them for play, both individually and as selected files in a group. ►The most intuitive way is to simply browse the files on your USB drive through the top menu bar “File” command menu. Look for the drive labeled “Hard Drive” and you will find your media files there in the same fashion they were organized when you placed them on that drive. ►A second method is to use the “View” command menu’s “Media Library” function and let the Media Player organize attributes of the files on your USB drive to display by Genre, Artist, Song Title, Recently Played, etc. This may be a useful way to access files in similar groupings if not already separated within folders on your USB drive. Once you have selected the file(s) you wish to play, simply use the Play/Pause, Next and Back command buttons at the lower left corner of the screen to navigate the media file. WARNING: INTRAPHEX does not recommend storing any media files on the supplied 8GB internal SD card where the Navigation and Boot Instructions reside. This card is the only licensed version of the proprietary Prodigy ONE.2 software. Storage of any added files of any type on the SD card or copying its contents to another storage device will void the Prodigy ONE.2 warranty. Page 18 Quick Start Guide
Tips for Media Player It’s best to organize audio, video and photo files in separate folders so that browsing in the Media Player for one type does not randomly attempt to mix another type in the rotation. For example, you would not really want to listen to a few songs and then have it automatically begin a video because the files shared the same folder. Playing Audio Files When choosing audio files, you may want to use the “View” command menu’s “Media Library” function and let the Media Player organize attributes of the files on your USB drive to display by Genre, Artist, Song Title, Recently Played, etc. You can also click the list icon on the lower right of the screen to access the Media Library menu choices. This is particularly useful if you have a lot of files and you’d rather allow the Media Player organize them in a more intuitively navigated manner with many more ways to sort than the filename alone. Of course you always have the simple option to browse the contents of the drive from the “File” drop down menu as shown below. In this case it will show all files on the drive (including any video and photo files contained on the drive). This is why it’s recommended to arrange files for audio into separate folders than video or photos. It’s much easier for a user to access the folder they want by storing files on the USB drive that way. Open File allows a search of the entire drive and shows folders The “List” icon provides quick access to all media on the drive Playing Video Files When playing video files, please select the “View” command and then “Fullscreen” to allow the Media Player to display the video without any of the controls and information visible on screen. The controls will become visible again simply by touching the screen (if touch screen capable) or by operating the touchpad of the wireless remote control. Choose the Fullscreen command when viewing videos to hide the on screen controls and information WARNING: INTRAPHEX does not recommend storing any media files on the supplied 8GB internal SD card where the Navigation and Boot Instructions reside. This card is the only licensed version of the proprietary Prodigy ONE.2 software. Storage of any added files of any type on the SD card or copying its contents to another storage device will void the Prodigy ONE.2 warranty. Quick Start Guide Page 19
Bluetooth Hands Free Calling Prodigy ONE.2 lets you use your Bluetooth ® enabled mobile phone to place and receive calls hands free. This is an optional feature not included with the base Prodigy ONE.2 system. If you’ve already got Bluetooth Hands Free calling functionality through your host head unit or have not chosen to add the Prodigy ONE.2 Bluetooth option, you can disregard this section. Please note that if you do have the Prodigy ONE.2 Bluetooth calling feature, you must have that accessory device enabled in the UART menu by the installer at the time of the Bluetooth device installation. For more information on UART configuration, please see page 31. Connecting to a Bluetooth device When you first connect a new Bluetooth device to Prodigy ONE.2, you must select the “Devices” icon in the Bluetooth menu to access the “Search Devices” and “Add New Device” functions. First ensure that your phone is Bluetooth compatible and that it’s in the “discoverable” mode. These settings can generally be found or confirmed in your phone’s settings or configuration menus. Please refer to your phone’s operation manual for specific details. To be discovered by Prodigy ONE.2, the phone must be within 30 feet of the Prodigy ONE.2 main unit. As long as you are seated in the vehicle, range should not be a problem. Once the phone is discoverable, choose the “Search Devices”. Within a minute or less, the available Bluetooth devices should begin to appear on the device list. Select your phone by checking the round circle in the gray status box next to the device name.

Placing a call by Direct Entry From the Bluetooth menu, select “Phone”. To ensure your phone is connected, look for the Bluetooth ® logo in the top right corner of the screen. The easiest way to place calls is simply by direct phone number entry. Enter the phone number as you normally would enter it on your mobile phone. You can do this from the on-screen dial pad and the number will display in the top blue area. Next, select the green “Place Call” icon to initiate the call. When the call is connected the white status area will say “Connected” and you are talking to your caller. Once you have completed the call, select the red “End Call” icon. Bluetooth ® logo indicates a phone is paired and ready to proceed with a hands-free call Placing a Call (Dial Pad) Phone number appears here (no spaces) Call Status Place Call Display End Call Placing a call from the Phone Book Prodigy ONE.2’s Bluetooth system has the capability to download your phone contacts, either from the SIM card or from the phone’s memory itself. To be able to dial from the phonebook, you must first download the contacts. From the Bluetooth menu, select “Phone Book” or from the Phone List Icon dial pad select the “Phone List” icon (shown at right). Once loaded, the list sorts by number. How to Download Contacts to the Prodigy ONE.2 Phone Book Choose whether you are downloading from the phone’s memory or the SIM card and select the appropriate command button at the left side of the screen. Choose the location Once you have selected to download the contacts, Prodigy ONE.2 begins to search from which contacts for and download your contacts to its onboard memory. Depending on the number of are downloaded contacts you have to download, this can take several minutes. Typically the contacts download at about the rate of 150 per minute (as a rule of thumb). If you wish to stop the download at any time during the process, simply select “Download Stop”. Placing a Call (Phone Book) Status of download progress Navigate the contact shows here list here (UP and DOWN). They are Highlighted Contact listed in order by the Name in the blue telephone number as box is the one that displayed (includes if will be called you have “1” in front of the area code). Choose the “Place Call” button when you’re ready to make the call to the selected contact and Prodigy ONE.2 dial pad screen appears. Quick Start Guide Page 21
Receiving Calls When an incoming call is received, the Prodigy ONE.2 screen will display the incoming phone call notification overlay screen regardless of what source is currently running. For example, if the Media Player or Navigation is running and a call comes in, the audio from the source will mute and the incoming phone call notification overlay screen will display to allow you to take the call. Incoming Phone Call Notification Overlay To answer the call, choose the green “Answer Call” icon and begin speaking. Your source material’s audio content will be muted for the duration of your hands free conversation. Once you have completed the call, select the red “End Call” icon. Phone number Answer Call appears here (no spaces) End Call Example of the Incoming Phone Call Notification Overlay while in the Media Player Application Please note that incoming calls are displayed by the telephone number and not by the contact’s name in your phone. Many phones will show the contact’s name on their screen (rather than the number) even when paired to a Bluetooth device. In this case, you’ll want to look for the area code and/or phone number that you recognize to determine if you wish to accept the call. Other Bluetooth Settings There are a few settings that you can configure to suit your particular Prodigy ONE.2 Bluetooth accessory device installation, namely how the output of sound for the caller’s voice is routed and the relative volume of the of the speaker to allow it to be audible, but not create interference with the hands-free microphone. Routing the sound for the caller’s voice should be configured by your installation technician. The choices “BT”, “Mic In” or “Line In” will be set based on how and to which host head unit you have Prodigy ONE.2 connected. Once these are set and functioning, there is no reason for you to alter them. Generally speaking, it’s best to have the microphone and speaker positioned far enough away from each other where they do not have audible feedback (a screeching or hollow sound). This distance is typically 3 or more feet when the microphone is placed in the visor/rear view mirror area and the sound of the caller’s voice plays through speakers in low door or kick panel locations. Your installation technician should be able to assist you with ensuring an ideal placement for your specific Prodigy ONE.2 installation. Prodigy ONE.2’s Bluetooth accessory device will pair with up to five Bluetooth phones that have been previously added/learned to the system. Switching between phones can be done in the “Devices” menu by simply highlighting the dot in the gray box next to the phone you wish to enable. When enabled, the gray box will show “Occupied” to confirm it’s paired with the phone name that appears next to it. Page 22 Quick Start Guide
Supported BT Profiles The Prodigy ONE.2 Bluetooth accessory supports the following Bluetooth profiles: • HFP - Hands Free Profile • PBAP - Phone Book Access Profile While the profiles are supported by the Prodigy ONE.2 Bluetooth accessory module, your particular phone and/ or service provider may not support the all of those profile functionalities even if the phone you are using has Bluetooth connectivity. Generally speaking with Bluetooth enabled phones, the bare minimum of functionality would be to provide some method of conducting calls in a hands free way, through either a Bluetooth headset ear piece or an installed device such as Prodigy ONE.2 (or both). Added features may not have Bluetooth support in the phone itself, may not be “enabled” by the service provider or may simply not match the profile. PBAP - Phone Book Access Profile Details Many phones have a phone book, some can even “push” that phone book into a host device one or several contacts at a time. Be sure your phone supports PBAP so that the contacts still reside on your phone, but will display on Prodigy ONE.2 (rather than when the contact is “pushed” to the host device and a copy of it resides there). Phones that only push contacts generally support the Object Push Profile (OPP) instead of PBAP. If you are having trouble uploading and viewing contacts, compatibility of the profiles would be the first thing to check. The advantage of PBAP is that you upload all contacts at one time (instead of individually through OPP) and they show any updates as you update your phone. Quick Start Guide Page 23
Radar / Laser Detectors Prodigy ONE.2 features and optional radar and laser detection system as well as a laser diffuser accessory. If you have these features installed, Prodigy ONE.2 has the capability to enable or disable each of the radar band and laser coverages individually as well as turning the system on only beyond a preset vehicle speed. This is useful in many states to provide fewer false readings from coverage in a radar band that is not used in your particular state or avoiding common false triggers at low speed (such as the automatic doors at many grocery stores). Please note that if you do have the Prodigy ONE.2 radar/laser detection accessory installed, you must have that accessory device enabled in the UART menu by the installer at the time of the radar/laser device installation. For more information on UART configuration, please see page 31. Auto Radar Speed Settings This feature can be turned on or off. If Auto Radar is turned on, the radar detection capabilities are not enabled until the vehicle reaches the preset speed selected in the Auto Radar menu. The vehicle speed is determined by the GPS signal and is very accurate. From the main menu, choose the “Radar” icon to access the initial radar entry screen. Select whether you wish to have Auto Radar ON or OFF. If you choose to have Auto Radar ON, you must also choose a vehicle speed at which the unit becomes enabled. Once you have all your settings complete, choose “Save” and then “OK” to confirm. Next, choose “Exit” to return to the main menu screen or “Settings” to select which radar band and laser settings you wish to enable or disable. If Auto Radar is OFF If Auto Radar is ON If Auto Radar is set to the OFF position, the radar and If Auto Radar is set to the ON position, the menu button laser settings chosen in the radar’s “Settings” menu will turns blue to indicate the change and you can select your be available to indicate presence of radar and/or laser at trigger speed at which (and above) it turns on the radar and any vehicle speed, including while parked with the ignition laser detection enabling whichever settings chosen in the on. Remember to “Save” any changes before you exit this radar’s “Settings” menu. Remember to “Save” any changes menu. before you exit this menu. Remember to SAVE any changes! WARNING: Radar detector systems are not legal for use on passenger vehicles in The State of Virginia, Washington DC or on any US Military Base. Further, the use of radar detector systems on commercial vehicles is prohibited in The States of New York, Illinois, and New Jersey. Please check your own local and state laws to ensure compliance with radar and/or laser speed detection devices. Page 24 Quick Start Guide
Radar Band and Laser Settings This feature allows you to select which specific coverages in radar and laser you wish to enable in the system. Since not all states utilize all bands of radar nor do all states use laser speed detection, you can optimize the settings to work with radar bands you know are used for speed detection in your state. Of course there’s no drawback to having all the settings enabled full time, it’s just that if you happen to have other radar operated devices (such as motion sensing entry doors, lighting, etc.) operating nearby, sometimes this can increase the possibility of false triggers. If you do leave all the bands enabled, INTRAPHEX recommends that you set the Auto Radar setting to “ON” and provide a low vehicle speed like 20-25 MPH as it will filter out many of the probabilities for low speed false readings. From the initial radar entry screen, choose “Settings”. Next select which radar bands you wish to enable or disable. A red X is disable and a green check mark is enable. Once you have all your settings complete, choose “Save” and then “OK” to confirm. Next, choose “Exit” to return to the initial radar entry screen and choose “Exit” again to return to the main menu screen. Remember to SAVE any changes! Example of Radar Band settings for a Prodigy ONE.2 installation in which the optional Radar and Laser Detector systems are installed. You can individually select to enable or disable X, K, KU and KA band radar as well as laser detection. Optional Laser Diffuser Certain law enforcement agencies choose to use laser speed detection, particularly on roads with high speed. Laser speed detection is also known as LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). As a separate, additional accessory from the radar/laser detectors, INTRAPHEX offers an optional laser diffuser device to mitigate the degree to which a laser can “lock on” to your vehicle. This is not a laser jammer (those are not legal in the US), rather it simply diffuses the signal that the laser collects as a return from the car it targets. Please be sure to check with your specific state laws and regulations about use of laser diffusion devices to abate speed detection. For more information about the INTRAPHEX Laser Diffuser, please visit the INTRAPHEX website or contact your Prodigy ONE.2 installing retailer.

Setting up an Internet Connection Prodigy ONE.2 has optional connectivity to the Internet using 802.11 WiFi. Once enabled with internet access, Prodigy ONE.2 has Opera internet browser for ease of use. Please note that these icons are disabled unless Prodigy ONE.2 detects a WiFi device connected to the USB port. Wireless (802.11) Settings To enable the WiFi functionality, Prodigy ONE.2 must have the USB WiFi adapter installed and the vehicle must be within range of a 802.11 wireless network. This can be a home/office wireless network, a business that offers WiFi, or it can be the “WiFi Hotspot” on your mobile phone. When connecting to a WiFi network for the first time AND if the network’s SSID (network name) does not appear on the opening screen, you will need to choose “Add New” to set up the network connection. This type of network connection would generally be the case for networking computers together for shared access rather than finding a dedicated wireless Internet connection. In most cases you will not need to do this unless you intend to share files (such as media files) with your home/ office computer wirelessly. If within range, the dedicated wireless internet connection should already broadcast its SSID and appear in the list on the screen. Please note that if you are not computer savvy, you may wish to have your Prodigy ONE.2 Installer setup and configure any wireless networking capability at the time they install the WiFi adapter. If SSID Does Not Appear If SSID Appears Choose “Add New” if the network you want to connect to In most cases for WiFi internet connections, one or more does not appear in the list of available networks or if it’s not WiFi networks (when within range) will appear with their yet set up.

Accessing the Internet (Browser Icon) Your Prodigy ONE.2 system will only be able to access the internet through the on board browser if it has a WiFi connection enabled. Once an internet connection is established, Prodigy ONE.2 can navigate the World Wide Web in Opera. To Select a Browser and navigate the Internet: 1) Choose the “Browser” icon from the menu screen 2) Input the URL of choice into the browser with the on-screen keyboard and choose “ENTER” or the appropriate icon in the browser to launch the URL Opera Although Opera does not come pre-packaged with many laptop or desktop computers, it’s actually the most used browser for mobile devices, including devices like Prodigy ONE.2. For this reason, INTRAPHEX recommends that you use Opera to visit web sites on a WiFi enabled Prodigy ONE.2 system. The browsing flexibility is considered better for a mobile device and, unlike other browsers, the Opera browser allows for multiple windows to be open simultaneously. Many users with smartphones may find the Opera browser to be more intuitive because it’s designed exclusively for mobile devices that don’t necessarily navigate with a traditional mouse and keyboard. Cameras You may or may not have a rear view camera and/or secondary camera integrated into the Prodigy ONE.2 depending on your particular installation. Display of Camera 1 Prodigy ONE.2 provide back up camera functionality and (if installed) the camera image is triggered automatically any time the vehicle’s ignition is on and placed into reverse. There is no need to choose any menu icons to trigger this back up camera on the “Camera 1” input. It’s automatic when backing up. Display of Camera 2 Prodigy ONE.2 also integrates a second on-board camera input. This can be used for a front view camera, second input for (full time) rear view camera, rear seat “baby cam” application, or any other way you might use an onboard camera. Please note, use of this input requires purchase and installation of an additional camera in most cases, except where the same rear view camera is used for both camera inputs (1 & 2). To exit the Camera 2 screen, simply press or select the EXIT button on the screen and you will return to the menu page. Quick Start Guide Page 27
Settings Prodigy ONE.2 has some factory settings accessible with a pin code. These are not user adjustable settings and would only be accessed by the installer or someone reconfiguring Prodigy ONE.2 in a second installation. This section is also used when adding any UART devices to Prodigy ONE.2 (see page 31 for more details). There are no user adjustable settings or configurations in this menu item. Configurations are completed by the installer at the time of Prodigy ONE.2 installation or at the factory. System In the System menu icon, Prodigy ONE.2 has a setting for the Navigation program launch and a firmware update utility. Auto Run Navigation Launch Prodigy ONE.2 is default configured to launch into Navigation mode each time it turns on. This is so that, when you access Prodigy ONE.2 screens, the Navigation application is already running and ready to go. Most installations that utilize a Prodigy ONE.2 will have this as the primary application, so INTRAPHEX engineers made it easy to access. If you wish to have Prodigy ONE.2 boot to the main menu screen instead of directly into Navigation, you can simply select the System menu icon and choose “Auto Run Navi Off” . If you wish to have Prodigy ONE.2 boot to the main menu screen instead of directly into Navigation, you can simply select the System menu icon and choose “Auto Run Navi Off” as shown in this example . Firmware Update If there is a firmware update necessary for your Prodigy ONE.2 system, you will have to contact the INTRAPHEX technical support department for specific instruction on how to acquire the necessary update and how to load it into Prodigy ONE.2 from this menu.
