Welcome to CoPilot Truck | Mobile!
CoPilot Truck | Mobile is changing the way truck drivers work, making it
possible for street-level directions to be generated on a mobile phone, anywhere, within seconds. CoPilot Truck | Mobile, the first navigation system specifically designed for company drivers, owner operators, and leased operators, is the only way to get truck-specific directions on Smartphones.
Stay on Truck-Legal Roads with CoPilot
CoPilot Truck | Mobile, now available for Windows Mobile -based Smartphones, provides turn-by-turn driving directions respecting commercial truck restrictions. CoPilot Truck | Mobile can be used in or out of the vehicle. There’s no need to look at a printed map — you just listen and go!

How CoPilot Uses GPS Technology
The Global Positioning System (GPS), developed by the U.S. Department of Defense, is a constellation of 24 satellites that orbit the Earth twice daily. Each satellite contains an atomic clock that is accurate to the nanosecond, and constantly emitting radio waves toward Earth. GPS sensors (hardware devices for receiving data) can receive these signals from the satellites. GPS relies on the fact that radio waves travel at the speed of light to calculate dis­tances, and the exact location of the sensor is figured by combining the data received from four satellites.
Using the data from these four satellites, GPS is able to give you the latitude, longitude and elevation of your present location, and also your road speed and direction of travel on a route. Given the right conditions, a GPS sensor can identify your geographic position anywhere in the world within a few meters.
CoPilot uses the GPS positional data that it receives from your hardware unit to display your current position on a map as you drive. This is called "track­ing". CoPilot also uses GPS data to guide you along a planned route if you enter a destination on your Smartphone. CoPilot guides you with audible prompts as well as on-screen directions as you drive.
GPS Accuracy
The GPS signal CoPilot receives from the constellation of satellites has a rated accuracy of within 5 - 10 meters. This means that 95% of the time the reported location is within 15 - 30 feet of your exact position. If CoPilot initially places you on the wrong road (this happens only rarely), keep driving and CoPilot will automatically correct itself and find your proper position.
Occasionally, CoPilot's GPS tracking will be less accurate or fail to work at all because your GPS receiver is unable to receive satellite signals. Heavy foliage, tall buildings, or any other structures obstructing communications will interfere with CoPilot's ability to track your location. Like your car radio, GPS tracking can also be affected by weather conditions if severe. CoPilot will continue tracking as soon as adequate signals are available. Despite these limitations, you can expect CoPilot to provide you with useable and accurate information most of the time. CoPilot will alert you if accurate information is unavailable.
Safety Warning
Always keep your hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road when driving!
Do not use this product in any way that interferes with safe and attentive operation of a vehicle. When used in a vehicle, do not place the GPS receiver, antenna, power supply, or your computer where it may strike the driver or passengers if the vehicle turns sharply or stops abruptly. This product is designed, manufactured, and intended as an aid to planning and navigating routes. The accuracy of the map data, driving directions, and GPS tracking system is insufficient for this product to be used for autoated navigation or in any situation in which the failure of the product could lead directly to death, personal injury, or physical or environmental damage. The driver must remain alert at all times to actual road conditions and obey all posted signs and traffic regulations.
ALK Technologies assumes no responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from the use of this product.

Trip Data Selection
The Trip method of selecting data is by far the most customizable method. This option allows you to run a trip and select street-level data specific to that trip, thereby avoiding unneeded data and saving valuable memory space.
Once the trip is run, the Data Download Wizard automatically selects circles of data around your origin and destination, and a corridor of data along your route. You can then click Options to adjust the radius of the circles and the width of the corridor.
The Trip Itinerary for each trip you download will be stored on your Smartphone. Multiple trips can be downloaded to the Smartphone for later use (see Trip Transfer, p. 22).
Follow these steps to download Trip data:
1. Click the Trip icon.
3. To search for a POI, click the Points of Interest tab, enter a City, State or a ZIP Code and click the Find button.
You can speed up your search by selecting a POI Category and/or Type.
3a. Highlight a selection, click
Select, then Add Stop.
2. Enter at least a start and end place for your trip. In the Cities and Addresses tab, type a City, State or ZIP Code and press <Enter>. Optionally, you can enter an address in the same way. Click the Add Stop button to add this place to your trip.
You may enter one or multiple destinations. Use the buttons to the right of the Itinerary to zoom to a stop on the map, change the order of stops, or delete a stop.
Note: For a more detailed description of trip entry, open CoPilot Help from the desktop application (Help menu > Help Contents and Search).
4. When all your stops have been entered, click Select Data.
By default a 20 mile radius around all stops and a width of 4 miles along the corridor which connects them will be highlighted. Note: CoPilot’s available memory calcula­tions subtract 15 MB from the available memory on your storage card (If you are using one) to account for support files.
5. To customize these distances for any trip, click Options and type a distance in the appropriate box.
- 19 -
- 20 -
6. You will return to the Data Selection menu where you can select another data area if you like, using any method. When you are finished selecting data areas, click Download. Trip itineraries that were created using the Trip download method will be transferred along with map data (see p. 22 for details).
Data Download Options
When you’re ready to execute a download, the Wizard will display a list of Available Area(s) for download on the left side of the window. To desig­nate an area to include, click on it and then click on the right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download list. If you need to move an area off the Included list, click on it and use the left arrow button.
To delete an area from memory, click on it and click Delete.
Notice that the amount of available map memory and the memory required for all the areas on the Included list is shown beneath the list. NOTE: CoPilot's available memory calculations subtract 15 MB from the your storage card (if you are using one) to account for support files.
IMPORTANT: Each data download overwrites the data that is already on your Smartphone. If any data areas are already loaded on your
Smartphone, they will be overwritten by the new download. Therefore, your download must include all areas that you wish to have available on your Smartphone.
Check Include US Highway Network to download CoPilot’s complete United States Highway Network along with your data. This additional download requires approximately 36 MB of space on your Smartphone. When this network is loaded, major roads, cities, and some points of interest outside your selected data region will be shown on the map and you’ll be able to receive guidance as you drive anywhere in the U. S.
Check Download Favorites to download your Favorites list from the Trip Planner window on your desktop along with map data. These addresses will then be available as Favorites for trip entry on the Smartphone.
RECOMMENDED OPTION: It is recommended that you leave Create QuickStart checked (see below for a description of this feature), but you
may uncheck it if you don’t want the QuickStart copied with your download.
CoPilot QuickStart
Application Download
Each time you download data, CoPilot gives you the option to download a complete, ready-to-use “QuickStart” version of CoPilot along with the data. Having the QuickStart version on your mobile device ensures that CoPilot will be available even if you experience technical problems with your Smartphone and need to perform a hard reset. (During a hard reset, all installed applications are deleted from the Smartphone.) The
QuickStart version will automatically install CoPilot after a hard reset, and your map data will already be there!
To run the QuickStart application on your mobile device after a hard
reset, simply turn on your Smartphone. CoPilot will automatically begin installation.
The QuickStart option can be turned on or off in the final step of the download process (see above). By default this option is active and
the QuickStart download will be executed each time you download map data.
The QuickStart needs 10 MB of space on your Storage Card. Once the QuickStart has been copied, you can save time the next time you download data by unchecking the Create QuickStart option in the final Data Download Wizard screen before proceeding to download. You will also want to uncheck this option if you do not have enough room on your Storage Card for it.
If the QuickStart is copied onto your Storage Card and you need to remove it, simply delete the folder that contains it. The folder will be named “2577”.
POI Download Options
When you download a data region, youl get all roads within that region. Also included are regional points of interest (POI) such as gas stations, hotels, restaurants, visitor attractions, etc.
CoPilot now lets you control the number and types of POI that get down­loaded along with map data. You can save space on your Smartphone by eliminating categories of POI that you’re not interested in seeing.
To select which POI categories you want, choose POI Download Options from the Edit menu in the desktop application or, when you first open the Data Download Wizard, click the Options button in the Wizard. Check the categories you wish to select (click the plus sign next to each category to see the included sub-categories).
Click Save Settings to save the set of categories you create. Click Restore Default to return to CoPilot’s default categories.
- 21 -
- 22 -
Trip Transfer
When you use the Trip download option, CoPilot transfers whole trips to your Smartphone . The trip you create, including its Itinerary, is transferred along with the surrounding data corridor, and it becomes the current trip.
The Trip download option creates a .TRP file that is placed in the Save directory in the CoPilot installation folder on your Smartphone. Subsequent downloads will add more .TRP files to this folder. The number of trips that may be stored is limited only by the available memory on your Smartphone. If multiple trips are downloaded, the last one to be added will open as the current trip. Use the Saved Trip stop entry option on your Smartphone to open stored .TRP files.
