5 Reference Guide

On the following pages you will find the description of the different concepts and menu screens of the software.

5.1 Concepts

5.1.1 Smart Zoom

Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:

•

While following a route: when approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognise your manoeuvre 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.

5.1.2 Route calculation and recalculation

Your software calculates the route based on your preferences:

•

Route planning methods:

•

: 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.

•

: Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes. It can be practical for slow vehicles.

•

: Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings. Travel cost and CO

emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account.

•

: Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult manoeuvres. With this option, you can make your software to take, for example, the motorway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.

•

Vehicle types:

When creating a new vehicle profile, select one of the below vehicle types.

•

Roads are used only if access for cars is allowed.

•

Private roads and resident-only roads are used only if they are inevitable to reach the destination.

•

Walkways are excluded from routes.

•

:

•

All manoeuvres are available in intersections.

•

Directional constraints are taken into account the way that opposite direction is allowed with a low speed.

•

A private road is used only if the destination is there.

•

Walkways are excluded from routes.

•

Whenever data exist, route calculation takes into account statistical traffic data for the given day of week and time of day.

Real-time Traffic events are also taken into account and sometimes greatly modify the route.

Your software automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed itinerary or if a newly received Traffic event concerns a part of the recommended route.
