Data Download to Your Pocket PC
To use CoPilot on your Pocket PC, you first need to download map data from your desktop or laptop computer to your Pocket device. You select the data to download from one or more regions (“data areas”) that you specify in the CoPilot application on your desktop. It’s a simple 4-step process.
Step 1: Specify Where Data Will Be Stored
To begin the data download process, open the CoPilot application on your desk­top/laptop, then click the Data Download Wizard icon or pick Data Download Wizard from the File menu.
CoPilot gives you three options for downloading data:
1) directly to the Pocket device's memory,
2) to a Storage Card in the device, or
3) to a Storage Card through a Storage Card Reader. You will be prompted to enter one of these choices before you can download.
CoPilot will detect which options are available to you.
NOTE: If there is data stored on the device's memory and also on a Storage Card in the device, CoPilot will use the map data on the Storage Card by default. To have it use the device's memory, you must remove the Storage Card.
1. To download to Pocket PC Device Memory:
(In this example, CoPilot has detected that there is no Storage Card in the device.) Click Next to go to the Data Selection window. See CoPilot QuickStar t, this page, for a description of software included in downloads. See p. 12 for Options.
2. To download to a Storage Card in the device: (In this example, CoPilot has detected that all options are available.) Select a storage card name from the drop-down pick list, then click Next to go to the Data Selection window. See CoPilot QuickStart to the right for a description of software included in downloads. See p. 12 for Options.
- 7 -
3. To download to a Storage Card through a Card Reader: (In this example, again all options are available.) Pick the drive let­ter associated with your Storage Card Reader, then click Next to go to the Data Selection window. See CoPilot QuickStar t below for a description of software included in downloads. See p. 12 for Options.
NOTE: You can also download to a Storage Card through a PCMCIA adapter. Simply identify the drive letter associated with the adapter under the
Storage Card Reader option.
CoPilot QuickStart
Storage Card Application Download
If you are downloading map data to a Storage Card or Storage Card Reader, you have the option to download a complete, ready-to-use “QuickStart” version of CoPilot along with the data. Having the QuickStart version on your Storage Card ensures that CoPilot will be available even if you experience technical problems with your Pocket PC and need to perform a hard reset. (During a hard reset, all installed applications are deleted from the Pocket PC.) Inserting a storage
card with the QuickStart version on it will automatically install CoPilot, and your map data will already be there!
The QuickStart option can be turned on or off in the final step of the download process (see p. 12). 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 hav e enough room on y our 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”.
Data Download
Step 2: Choose a Data Selection Method
After you specify a location where the data will be stored, you will be prompted to select a region on the map to download. CoPilot allows you to download data using one of the three methods described below.
See Data Download Step 3 beginning on p. 9 for step-by-step instructions for downloading data to your Pocket PC using each of these three methods.
City Radius - This method allows you to quickly select data in the shape of a
circle surrounding any city on the map. In the Data Download Wizard you type a city name and country abbreviation or postal code and enter the number of kilometers you would like the radius to extend around the city, then click Next.
The Wizard displays a map that shows the city and the radius you chose. At this point you can zoom the map in and out using zoom buttons and adjust the size of the data area by altering the radius of the circle.
City Radius
- 8 -
Map Area - This method of selecting data allows you to choose an area of data
by drawing a box on the Data Download Wizard's map screen. In the Wizard, you enter a city name near which you would like to select data, then click Next. The map will zoom to that location. Then you create a box around the desired area by
clicking and dragging your mouse across the map. The street-level data within that box will be selected.
You can zoom the map in and out using the zoom buttons and adjust the size of the data area by redraw­ing the box.
Map Area
Trip - 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 Pocket PC (see T rip T ransfer, p. 12). Multiple trips can be downloaded to the Pocket PC for later use.
Trip
Region - This method lets you
download map data for a whole country or region. The region you select must be included in the region that was installed on your Pocket PC, otherwise a warning will appear and you won’t be able to download data. Region downloads generally take the longest amount of time, depending on the size of the selected region.
Region
Data Download
Step 3: Select Your Data
Use any of the three methods covered on the following pages (City Radius, Map Area, or Trip) to select one or more regions and then download your data.
City Radius
1. Click the City Radius icon.
2. Enter a City, Country or Postal Code, and a radius around the area that you would like to download. Click Next to verify that the area is correct.
4. Name the selection, then click Next.
5. You will return to the Data Selection menu where you can select another data area if you like, using any method. When you finish selecting data areas, click the Download icon and you will be taken to the final screen where you can build your download.
3. Using the Data Download Wizard toolbar you can zoom in or out, change the radius, or go back to the previous screen. When you are satisfied with your selection, click Next.
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.
- 9 -
Map Area
1. Click the Map Area icon.
2. Enter a City, Country or Postal Code (address optional) within the area that you would like to download. Click Next.
4. Name the selection, then click Next.
5. 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 the Download icon to go to the final screen where you can build your download.
3. Click and hold the left
mouse button and drag the cursor to draw a box around
a desired area. The size of the area will be displayed in the toolbar. Click Next.
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.
- 10 -
Trip
1. Click the Trip icon.
2. You now have three options for entering stops on your trip. If you choose the Cities and Addresses tab you will need to enter a City, Country or Postal Code, press <Enter>, and click the Add Stop button.
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.
3a. Highlight a selection, click
Select, then Add Stop. When all your stops have been entered, click Select Data.
4. 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.
3. If you choose the Points of
Interest tab, enter a City, Country or a postal code and
click the Find button.
You can specify search
parameters by selecting a POI Category and/or Type (this will speed up the search).
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. Tr ip itineraries that were created using the Trip download meth­od will be transferred along with map data (see p. 12 for details).
- 11 -
Data Download
Step 4: Download the Data
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 in the download, click on it and then click on the right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download list.
Notice that the amount of available map memory and the memory required for all the areas on the Included list is shown under the list. 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.
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.
POI Download Options
When you download a data region, you’ll get all roads within that region (but not roads outside the region). Also included with each download 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 points of interest that get downloaded along with your data areas. You can save space on your Pocket PC 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. In the window that opens, 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.
IMPORTANT: Each data download overwrites the data that is already on your Pocket PC . If any data areas are already loaded on your Pocket PC,
they will be overwritten by the new download. Therefore, your download must include all areas that you wish to have available on your Pocket PC.
Check Include EU Highway Network to download CoPilot’s complete European Highway Network along with your data. This additional download requires approximately 36 MB of space on your Pocket PC. 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 United States.
Check Download Favourites to download your Favourites list from the Trip Planner window on your desktop along with map data. These addresses will then be available as Favourites for trip entry on the Pocket PC.
RECOMMENDED OPTION: It is recommended that you leave Create QuickStart checked (see p. 7 for a description of this feature). However, you
may uncheck it if you don’t want the QuickStart copied with your download.
T rip T r ansfer
CoPilot now transfers whole trips to your Pocket PC when you use the Trip option for data downloading. Any trip you create for download, including its Itinerary, is transferred along with the surrounding data corridor and will become the current trip on your Pocket PC.
The Trip download option creates a .TRP file that is placed in the Save directory in the CoPilot installation folder on your Pocket PC. 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 Pocket PC. If multiple trips are downloaded, the last one to be added will open as the current trip. Use the Saved T rip stop entry option on your Pocket PC to open stored .TRP files.
- 12 -
Importing Custom Places
CoPilot’s Custom Place Import Wizard enables you to import addresses from your Outlook Contacts database, an Excel file, or text file. (If you are using another type of database or contact manager, you can export your contacts/ locations to an Excel or text file before importing them into CoPilot.) These points are then added to CoPilot’s POI database in a category and type of your choice (the default category is “Custom”). Once they are in the database, they are displayed on maps as pushpins and included in search results when you search for points of interest on your Pocket PC or in the Trip Planner window on your desktop/laptop.
NOTE: CoPilot now allows importing of multiple POIs with the same name (e.g. an entire database of “Starbucks”).
To access the Wizard, choose Import Custom Places from the Tools menu in Planning Mode on the desktop, then follow the step-by-step instructions given by the Wizard.
Steps for Importing:
1. In Planning Mode on your desktop/ laptop, choose Import Custom Places from the Tools menu to open the Import Custom Places Wizard.
2. Choose Import from Microsoft
Outlook or Import from an existing file (this can be a .txt
text file or an Excel file). Click Next.
4. In the next screen you'll see the data from your file sorted into columns. If the columns you see in the screen have not sorted the address data correctly, you need to indicate which delimiter CoPilot should recognize when it separates the fields in your file into columns. Each field — e.g. name, street address, city, state , etc. — needs to be separated by a delimiter such as a tab, semicolon, or comma. If your file uses a delimiter other than a comma, tab, or semicolon, click Other and type the delim­iter in the box to the right. If the first row of your file consists of column headings, you should check Column headings in first row. Click Next when ready.
5. Now, following the instructions on the screen, click each column heading and match the column headings with your data. To be accepted by CoPilot, each import­ed place must have at least four fields: Name, Address1, City, and State. Click Next when ready.
3. In the next Wizard screen, type the path to the file you want to import or Browse for it, and use the Category pick list to indicate a POI category for your imported places (by default they are assigned to “Custom”). You can also choose a Type from the pick list. To edit the type name, highlight it on the pick list and click Edit T ype Name below. Click Next when ready.
6. In the next screen, following the instructions, you can assign a name to the set of columns you just defined to save you time the next time you import addresses.
To skip this step, uncheck Save
the columns as a new set. Click Finish.

Editing Custom Places in the Database
After custom places have been added to the database, they can be edited at any time. Select Manage Custom Places from the Tools menu, then highlight the custom place you wish to edit, click Edit, and make your changes. Click Apply when finished.
NOTE: By default, addresses entered as Custom Places are assigned to the Custom POI category. You can change this assignment at any time by selecting another Category from the drop-down pick list as you edit.
7. When processing is finished, the Data Import Status window shows you how many places in your file were matched with addresses in the CoPilot database. A plus sign in the Accept column indicates a match. Places that failed to match appear in red and do not have a plus sign.
8. To edit a failed or incomplete match, highlight it and click Edit (see Editing Custom Places, next page). POI addresses can also be edited after they are added to the database using the Custom Place Manager.
9. When you are satisfied with the list of addresses, click Add to add these places to the CoPilot database.
Options below the list let you 1) choose whether to add all addresses on the
list to the database, or just those that were accepted, and 2) determine how CoPilot will handle any address that duplicates one already in the database.

Customizing the Guidance Screens
The line above the ETA in CoPilot’s guidance screens can be customized. (In the Driver Safety screen there are two lines, in the Map Screen there is one.) Tap Menu > Options > Settings > Guidance. Use the Custom Display pick list to set this line to show your current road, nearest crossroad, nearest major road, nearest town, ETA, or speed. Another way to change this line is by tapping on it to toggle through the options.
Several map features can also be customized. See Settings Menu, p. 26 for all the available options.
3D Perspective
CoPilot’s two-dimensional default display mode can be changed to a three-dimensional perspective based off an isometric camera angle.
The 3D map display contains distance markers to your next turn superimposed on the road.
Night Mode
Night Mode is available in 2D or 3D (3D perspective is shown to the right). It dims the PDA display and a darker map display is used to reduce glare and eye strain while driving with CoPilot at night.

Trip Editing and Waypoints
To get to the Going To screen from the guidance screens at any time, tap Menu > Trip > Edit. From here you can edit the current trip, add additional stops, or
start a new trip. Tap any stop on your itinerary to activate a pop-up menu that lets you delete
the stop, zoom to it on the map, or move it up or down to change the stop order. This menu also lets you designate a stop as a “waypoint” (tap Set as Waypoint). Waypoints are not considered as stops in the Itinerary, their purpose is to guide CoPilot’s route calculations along roads that you choose. To change a waypoint back to a stop, choose Set as Stop from the menu. Waypoints appear with “>>” instead of a stop number on the list of destinations.
CoPilot ignores waypoints when calculating the ETA and distance to the next stop, so settings waypoints can be used to get the ETA and distance to a stop that is not your next stop (see Getting ETA’s and Distances below).
Picking Stops From the Map
CoPilot enables you to pick a stop off the map when you don’t know the exact address of your destination. In any mode, tap and hold on your target location on the map. (A short tap displays street names if you’re not sure where you are pointing.) In the screen that appears, enter a name for the place you picked and tap Apply. The new place will be added to your trip itinerary.
Getting ETA’s and Distances
The estimated time of arrival (ETA) and distance to your next stop will always be shown in the lower left corner of the Map and Driver Safety screens. After entering a destination, tap Start Driving to see the ETA/ distance.
If your trip has multiple stops and you want to know the ETA for a destination that is not the next stop, designate the stops between your current location and the target stop as waypoints (tap each one and choose Set as Waypoint in the menu that pops up).
Tap and Hold a point
on the map.
Name the stop, then
tap Apply.
Optimizing Stops
To rearrange the stops on your trip in the most efficient order, tap one of the stops in the Going T o screen. Select Optimize Stops from the menu that pops. You must have at least three stops to optimize — the destination always remains the same.
- 24 -
Detour Feature
CoPilot’s Detour Feature allows you to preview an alternate route before deciding whether or not to take it. Perfect for situations in which traffic has suddenly slowed ahead of you, the Detour Feature will generate an alternate route and tell you exactly how much distance the new route will add to your trip. You can then make an informed decision about whether you’re better off driving through the delay or taking the new route.
Selective Routing
CoPilot allows you to be selective about the roads you take on your trip. There are two ways to do this: 1) you can customize your Trip Itinerary in Guidance Mode so that CoPilot will avoid certain roads; or 2) you can guide CoPilot’s route by entering stops as “waypoints”.
Avoiding a Road in the Trip Itinerary
1. To see an alternate route, tap Menu > Trip > Detour to request a new route.
3. If you decide to use the new route, just keep
driving.
4. If you decide
not to use the new route, tap Menu > Trip > Cancel Detour.
2. CoPilot’s voice will tell you how many kilometers the new route will add to your trip, and will begin to give you new turn instructions.
5. CoPilot will then return you to your original route.
1. Tap ap > View > Itinerary. The Itinerar y lists all roads you will be traveling on if you have entered at least one destination.
2. Tap the road you want to avoid.
3. Tap Avoid Road from the pop-up window and CoPilot will calculate a new route that avoids that road. This can be repeated. If there is no other possible road or the alternate route is too impractical, a new route won’t be generated.
4. To Return to the
Original Route: You can
return to the original route that CoPilot gave you at any time by tapping anywhere on the itinerary and selecting Cancel
Avoid from the pop-up menu.
Tailoring Your Route Using Waypoints
CoPilot lets you customize a route by designating some stops as “waypoints”. Waypoints appear on the Itinerary but they’re not treated like stops in Guidance Mode and or in routing instructions. You can enter a waypoint along a road you want CoPilot to use, and CoPilot will guide you through the waypoint toward your destination.
- 25 -
To designate a place as a waypoint, enter it as a stop in the Going T o screen. Tap and hold the location on the Going T o list until a menu pops up, then choose Set as Wa ypoint. Waypoints appear on the Going T o list preceded by “>>” instead of a stop number. To turn the location into a stop again, repeat and choose Set as Stop. You can set as many waypoints as you like on a trip; however, CoPilot will always recognize the last address in the Going To list as a stop.
Settings Menu
Tap Menu > Options > Settings to change settings that affect CoPilot routing and functionality.
Routing
In the Routing tab, the vehicle type options are Automobile or RV. RV routes favor major roads and avoid sharp turns and U-turns wherever possible.
The Quickest routing type is based on the most practical route in terms of road qual­ity, terrain, and urban/rural classifications. Shortest routing travels the least distance where possible while maintaining some level of practicality.
More routing options are:
Toll Road — Select Always Av oid, Use if Necessary, or No Restriction.
Display Congestion Zone Warning — (United Kingdom only) Check to have CoPilot
provide a warning when your trip will pass through a congestion zone (gives you the option to route around it) or when your destination is within a congestion zone (gives you the option to continue after warning).
Break every ___ hours for ___ hours — Check to have the ETA for your trip adjusted to reflect stops for breaks.
Advanced Routing Options:
Tap Advanced. Use the advanced routing options to completely change how CoPilot calculates routes.
Avoid/Favor: There are five levels of Avoid/Favor for each road type. Note that a road type that is heavily avoided will not be completely excluded — CoPIlot will still use that road type if there is no other efficient alternative.
Speed: Change the average speed for the different road types. NOTE: Even small changes to the avoid/favor balance and especially to road
speeds will have a significant effect on how CoPilot calculates routes.
Guidance
In the Guidance tab, the settings under Speak T urn W arning At determine how often and
where CoPilot will give you next turn informa­tion out loud. All, none, or some boxes can be checked. A pick list gives the options for Just
Ahead: by default you will be alerted 5 sec/100 ft before every turn (5 seconds or 100 feet,
whichever is closest), but you can choose to have CoPilot speak to you sooner (2 - 8 seconds before each turn, or 100 feet).
The pick list under Custom Display give you display options for the line above the ETA in the
screens. This line can display the current road, nearest crossroad, nearest major road, nearest town, ETA, or speed. NOTE: Defaults are set here, but you can also toggle through the options by tapping the line itself.
Check Display Route Arrow to have a yellow turn arrow appear on your route on the map as you approach each turn (this option is turned on by default). Check Amplify Speech Volume to have CoPilot speak louder (only active if the TTS — text to speech — voice option was selected when CoPilot was installed). Check Display GPS Arrow Trail to keep a trail of arrows that tracks your position as you drive on the map.

POIs
Tap Enabled to enable POI Alerts. CoPilot will then alert you with voice prompts to the presence of points of interest as you approach them. You can use the drop-down pick list to set how far away you’ll be when you receive the alerts. In the list of POI categories, select which types of POIs should be reported.
Move the slider bar at the bottom of the screen to limit alerts to POIs right on your route or to include POIs that are nearby.
Box Zoom — This option is selected by default. It enables you to zoom into an area on the map by drawing a box around it with the stylus.
Drag Map — Selecting Drag Map lets you use the stylus to drag the map in any direction to a desired location. Place the stylus on the map and move it across the screen.
Favourites
Tap the Favourites tab to open your List of Fav ourite Addresses.
To change the assignment of your work or home address, highlight your choice on the list and then tap either Work or Home.

CoPilot Live Communications
CoPilot Live allows you to maintain two-way communication with drivers who are using CoPilot and to actually see where they are currently located. You can do this using a computer with CoPilot installed or from our CoPilot Live web page.
Using this CoPilot Live functionality requires the following:
1) If you want to track and message other drivers: An Internet connection on the computer you have CoPilot installed on, or access to our CoPilot Live web page through a normal web browser.
2) If you want others to track and send messages to you: CoPilot Live must be running on your Pocket PC in your vehicle. You must have a wireless Internet connection.
CoPilot Live Web Page
As a CoPilot user, you can create an account on our website that allows you to join the CoPilot Live Network. Then your family, friends, and coworkers can "see" you and communicate with you anywhere in the world! Through the website you can do all of the following:
1) Send text messages to CoPilot users using large, customizable, one-touch response buttons to ensure driver safety.
2) Real-time tracking of other people who are on the road. See their current location, destination, ETA and much more.
3) Send itinerary updates including new stops and revised destinations — you can coordinate changes in plans with someone who's on the road right now without forcing them to pull over and enter new information.
4) Text-to-Speech enhances safety for all of your communications — text messages and itinerary updates are spoken out loud when you send them, keeping the recipient focused on the road ahead.
5) Create an online account from where you can send temporary or permanent tracking numbers to friends and family. You can also create and join groups with other CoPilot users and manage all your account preferences.
Since you're the one who owns CoPilot, it's likely that your friends and family will be the ones logging onto the CoPilot Live web site to communicate with you. However, setting up your own account allows you to distribute tracking numbers and have tighter control of the security so you know who has access to you while you're on the road.
For more information and complete details, visit the CoPilot Live Tracking Website at: http://live.alk.com.
On the following pages you'll see how you can communicate with someone on the road from within CoPilot (the Live Mode sections) and what it's like to be the driver using CoPilot when someone else is communicating with you (the Driving with Live sections). To set up your Pocket PC for tracking/messaging from within CoPilot or on the web, see Dr iving with Live - Pocket PC Setup, p. 43-44.
Live Mode - Overview
Although the CoPilot Live web page is the best way to communicate with people who are on the road, you can also use Live Mode from within CoPilot on your desktop as shown in the following Live Mode sections.
In Planning Mode click on the Live icon on the sidebar to the left of the map. The upper portion of the new pane that opens is the Vehicle List. Your connection to the CoPilot Live network is displayed above the Vehicle List. Remember that you must have an Internet connection to get onto the CoPilot Live network.
The Screen Name of the driver is displayed on the Vehicle List, with columns for the vehicle's next stop, ETA, speed, location, and time of last update. To see all col­umns, expand the pane (place the cursor on the right edge until it becomes an arrow and drag).

Center
Below the Vehicle List is the Message Center. The text of sent and received messages will appear here.
NOTE: All of CoPilot Live's communications are done in real-time. This means information is only transferred when you and the person in his vehicle are using CoPilot Live at the same time. In this sense CoPilot Live communication is similar to using a telephone — communication only occurs when both parties are on at the same time. ALK does not actively log driver's location information, nor do we use this information for any purpose other than to transfer it between authorized users.

Live Mode - Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL)
Vehicle Location
In Live Mode on your desktop you can track the location of the driver. Double­clicking the vehicle in the Vehicle List will center the map on the driver's last reported location. The vehicle location updates at an interval specified by the driver on his Pocket PC (see Driving with Live — Pocket PC Setup, p. 43-44) as long as both you and the driver are running CoPilot Live.
Live Mode - Send/Receive Messages
To send a message to the driver, click the Send Message button on the toolbar or right click on the vehicle and select Send Message from the pop-up window.
Click your cursor in the space just below the Standard Response Buttons, and begin typing. The Standard Response Buttons are included in every message and are described in detail in Driving with Live - Receive/Respond To Messages (p. 45). You have complete control over the Customizable Response Buttons:
1) Choose to display 1-4 buttons by clicking the corresponding number at the bottom of the screen.
2) Change the text of each button — the driver will see whatever text you enter and when the driver responds, the text of the button will be sent back to you.
Once you have typed your message and specified your Customizable Response Buttons, click the Send button to send your message to the driver. When the driver responds to your message, the response is displayed in the Message Center:

About 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.
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.
GPS sensors (hardware devices for receiving data) can receive these signals from the satellites, and using their own internal clock can calculate the amount of time it has taken for the signal to be received. 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 matter of a few meters.
How CoPilot Uses GPS
CoPilot uses the GPS positional data that it receives from the hardware unit you place on your dashboard to display your current position on a map as you drive. This is called "tracking". CoPilot also uses the GPS data it receives to guide you along your planned route if you enter a destination on your Pocket PC. CoPilot guides you with audible prompts as you drive as well as on-screen directions.
Tracking will begin automatically when you have satellite reception. In order to get route guidance, you have to enter a destination on your Pocket PC. Tracking may also be used without receiving guidance instructions when you’re in Navigating Mode. In this case , you'll see your trip tracked on the map on your Pocket PC as you drive, but you won't see a highlighted route on the map and you won't be given driving directions.
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. CoPilot takes this location information and enhances it further by "snapping" it to our street and highway network. Occasionally, CoPilot will place you on the wrong road. If this occurs, keep driving and CoPilot will automatically correct itself and find your proper position.
At times, CoPilot's GPS tracking will be less accurate or fail to work at all because the unit is unable to receive satellite signals. Heavy foliage, tall buildings, or any other structures obstructing communications will interfere with CoPilot's
Data Corrections
The ALK map database undergoes constant revision as we strive to provide you with the highest quality product. Revisions include the addition of new roads, roadway upgrades, and the addition of new streets and addresses. If you encoun­ter missing or inaccurate map data, please contact us so that we can include it in our updates.
The single best way to convey data corrections is through the submission of your GPS tracks-every time CoPilot is on it records a GPS track that contains position information that ALK uses to realign existing roads, fix one-way designations and add new roads.
To submit GPS tracks from within CoPilot:
1. Connect you Pocket PC to your desktop via Activesync.
2. Make sure you have Internet access from your desktop.
3. Open CoPilot on your desktop.
4. From the top toolbar select GPS > Submit GPS Tracks.
5. CoPilot pulls the GPS tracks from your Pocket PC and sends them to ALK electronically.
To submit GPS tracks by E-mail:
On your Pocket PC your GPS tracks (files that end with .gps) are stored in your My Documents > gpstracks folder.
If your map data is loaded onto a storage card, your tracks are stored in
the My Documents > gpstracks folder on that storage card.
If your map data is loaded onto your device memory, your tracks are
stored in the My Documents > gpstracks folder on your device.
1. Copy all GPS tracks to your desktop
2. Send them as an email attachment to data@alk.com
Specific Data Notes
Electronic Submission: You can use our built-in Data Corrections form to supplement any GPS tracks
you submit. This form has space to make notes regarding specific problems with map data.
1. Make sure your desktop is connected to the Internet
2. Open CoPilot on your desktop

Trouble-shooting
Why can't I get a satellite reading the first time I use CoPilot?
The first time the GPS receiver is used it may take approximately 5 minutes to acquire a fix (but may take as long as 15 minutes). You can minimize this time by remaining stationary and positioning the GPS receiver so that it has a clear view of the southern sky. Once initialized, the unit should acquire satellite signals in 40 seconds or less in the future.
How can I speed up satellite acquisition?
Be sure that the GPS receiver has an unobstructed view of the sky. Trees, buildings, and other obstacles are capable of blocking the satellite signals.
In the drive screen on my Pocket PC I am receiving turn-by-turn instructions in the black box, but CoPilot is not speaking. Why is that?
CoPilot provides voice prompts each time you come up on your next turn. In order to hear these prompts you need to be sure the volume on your Pocket PC is turned all the way up. On the Pocket PC in the Start menu go to Settings, and click on Sounds & Reminders. Under System volume move the slide bar all the way to the right. Or use your Pocket PC’s keypad to adjust the vol­ume. Tap up to increase the volume, tap down to decrease it.
GPS PROBLEMS
If you are not getting a GPS signal please check the following:
1. In the GPS menu, make sure there is a check mark next to Receiving.
2. If not, tap on Receiving to turn it on. If you cannot place a
check mark next to receiving by tapping on it, tr y using your Pocket PC’s Reset button (located on the bottom or back of the device) while CoPilot is open and the GPS unit is connected.
3. After you hit the Reset button, open the program again and make sure Receiving is checked in the GPS menu. Your GPS unit should now
acquire a satellite fix.
Also be aware that 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.
Using Help Files
CoPilot provides extensive Help Files, available on your desktop/laptop and your Pocket PC, to guide you through the program as you use it.
To access Help on your Pocket PC, once the CoPilot application is launched, tap the Tools pop-up menu at the bottom of the screen and select Help.
In the desktop application, click on the Help button in any window to open a Help topic that describes how to use that window.
