NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

1 Important Information

Please Read Carefully Before Using This Product

This product is intended to safely provide turn by turn instruction to get you to a desired destination. Please read the following precautions to ensure that you use your navigation system correctly.

• This product is not a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route suggestions made by the navigation system may never supersede any local traffic regulations or your personal judgment and/or knowledge of safe driving practices. Do not follow route suggestions if the navigation system instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal manoeuvre, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider unsafe.

• Glance at the monitor screen only when necessary and safe to do so. If prolonged viewing of the screen is necessary, stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner and location.

• Do not input destinations, change settings, or access any functions requiring prolonged viewing of the monitor while you are driving. Stop the vehicle in safe and legal manner and location before attempting to access the system.

• Do not use the navigation system to route you to emergency services. Not all locations of emergency service providers such as police and fire stations, hospitals and clinics are contained in the database. Please use your own judgment and your ability to ask for directions in these situations.

• The map database contained within the media in which it is stored is the most recent map data available at the time of production. Because of changes in streets and neighbourhoods, there may be situations where the navigation system may not be able to route you to your desired destination. In these cases, use your own personal judgment.

• The map database is designed to provide you with route suggestions. It does not take account of the relative safety of a suggested route, or of factors which may affect the time required to reach your destination. The database does not reflect road closures or construction, road characteristics (i.e. type of road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.), traffic congestion, weather conditions, or any other factors which may affect the safety or timing of your driving experience. Use your personal judgment if the navigation system is unable to provide you with an alternate route.

• There may be situations where the navigation system may display the vehicle’s location erroneously. Use your own driving judgment in this situation, taking into account current driving conditions. Please be aware that in this situation the navigation system should correct the vehicle’s position automatically; however, there may be times when you may have to correct the position yourself. If this is the case, stop the vehicle in safe and legal manner and location before attempting operation.

• Make certain that the volume level of the monitor is set to a level which still allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles. Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.

• Please make certain that any other person who intends on using the navigation system reads these precautions and the following instructions carefully.

• If there is anything in the manual which you do not understand, or are uncertain about the operation of the navigation system, please contact an authorised ALPINE representative before using the navigation system.

6.2.2 Lane information and Signposts

When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the recommended route. If lane informations are available in the map data, Alpine Navigation Software displays the lanes and their directions using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Arrows in yellow represent the lanes you need to take.

Where there is additional information available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are always displayed at the top of the map. The colour and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you can see above road or by the roadside. They show the available destinations and the number of the road the lane leads to.

All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no recommended route). When navigating a route, only that signpost is displayed in vivid colours that points to the lane(s) to be taken; all others are darkened out.

6.3 Alpine Navigation Software concepts

6.3.1 Auto Zoom

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

• While following a route calculated by Alpine Navigation Software: 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 in Alpine Navigation Software: Auto Zoom will zoom in if you drive slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed.

6.3.2 Position markers

6.3.2.1 Current GPS position and Lock-on-Road

When your GPS position is available, Alpine Navigation Software marks your current position with the

icon on the map.

The exact location of the position marker depends on the vehicle type used for route calculation. The vehicle type can be selected in Route settings (page 61).

If you choose any of the vehicles, the icon may not show your exact GPS position and heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to suppress GPS position errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road.

6.3.2.2 Returning to normal navigation

When GPS position is available, and you have moved the map (the icon is moving or is not

even visible), or you have rotated the map in 3D or rotated 2D mode, tap to move the map back to the GPS position and re-enable automatic map rotation.

Note!

Even if you move the map while you are driving, Alpine Naviga navigating if there is an active route: it plays the voice instructions and displays the preview icon according to your current GPS position.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

6.3.2.3 Selected location (Cursor)

If you select a location in the Destination menu, or you tap the map when the map control buttons are visible, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the map. Alpine Navigation Software displays the

Cursor with a large circle ( ) to make it visible at all zoom levels, even when it is in the background of a 3D map view.

When the Cursor is set, tap . The Cursor menu appears and you can use the Cursor as one of the following:

• the start point of a route

• a waypoint in a route

• the destination of a route

You can also search for POIs around the Cursor. Or you can save the location of the Cursor as:

• a Favourite

• a POI

6.3.3 Daytime and night colour profiles

Alpine Navigation Software uses different colour profiles during the day and during the night.

• Daytime colours are similar to paper road maps.

• The night colour profiles use dark colours for large objects to keep the average brightness of

the screen low.

Alpine Navigation Software offers different daytime and night colour profiles. It can also switch automatically between the daytime and the night schemes 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.

6.3.4 Colour scheme in tunnels

When entering a tunnel, the colours of the map change. All buildings disappear, large objects (such as surface waters or forests) and empty areas between roads become black.

However, roads and streets keep their original colours from the daytime or night colour scheme currently used.

After leaving the tunnel, the original colours return.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

6.3.5 Route calculation and recalculation

Alpine Navigation Software calculates the route based on your preferences:

• Route calculation method:

• Fast

• Short

• Economical

• Easy

• Vehicle types:

• Car

• Taxi

• Bus

• Emergency vehicles

• Road types:

• Unpaved Roads

• Permit Needed

• Motorways

• Per-use Toll

• Period Charge

• Ferries

• Cross-border Planning

Alpine Navigation Software automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed itinerary.

Depending on the type of the TMC event, Alpine Navigation Software also recalculates the route if a TMC event concerns a part of the recommended route.

For further information about Route Planning options, see page 61.

6.3.7 Track Logs

Alpine Navigation Software can log the track that you drive (page 39). A Track Log is a recording of how your GPS position changed and it is independent of the route

Alpine Navigation Software calculated. Track Logs can be recorded, renamed, replayed, shown on the map, exported to a USB stick in GPX

format, and deleted. See page 58. Independently of the normal track log, you can instruct Alpine Navigation Software to record the

native GPS data received from the GPS device. These logs are saved as separate text files on USB stick and they cannot be shown or replayed in Alpine Navigation Software.

To turn on NMEA/SIRF log saving, tap the following buttons: , ,

Tap the following buttons: , , , .

6.3.9 POI (Points of Interest)

A point of interest (POI) is a location that someone might find useful or interesting. Alpine Navigation Software is delivered with thousands of POIs and you can also create your own POIs in the application.

POI locations are marked on the map with special icons. POI icons are quite large so you can easily recognise the symbol. The icons are semi-transparent: they do not cover the streets and intersections behind them.

POIs are grouped into several levels of categories and subcategories. The icon of a POI that comes with the map shows the symbol of the POI category. If you save your own POI, you can select an icon for it independently of the POI category you have put it in.

6.3.11 Speed limit warning

Maps sometimes contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. This information may not be available for your region (ask your local dealer) or may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.

You can configure Alpine Navigation Software to warn you if you exceed the current limit. Tap the

following buttons: , , , . When you exceed the speed limit, the following happens:

• Visible Warning: A symbol with the speed limit appears in the corner of the map

(for example: ).

• Audible Warning: A voice message is played using the selected voice guidance profile.

6.3.12 TMC (Traffic Message Channel)

Alpine Navigation Software can provide you with even better routes if Traffic Message Channel (TMC) information is available. TMC is a specific application of the FM Radio Data System (RDS) used for broadcasting real-time traffic and weather information.

TMC is enabled by default in Alpine Navigation Software.

Note!

NVE-M300P Navigation Module is sold with a TMC module, which is needed to receive TMC data. To receive the signal, you also need a TMC antenna – several models can be purchased as accessory – ask your local dealer for further information.

If public TMC data are broadcasted at your location, Alpine Navigation Software automatically takes into account the TMC data received. You do not need to set anything in the program. The receiver will automatically search the FM radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded information will immediately be used in route planning. The moment Alpine Navigation Software receives traffic information that may affect your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating the route, and navigation will continue with a new route that is optimal considering the most up-to-date traffic conditions.

You can access the list of TMC events, change TMC related settings, and select or ignore specific

radio stations in the list of TMC events. On the Map screen, tap .

7 Navigating with Alpine Navigation Software

You can set up your route in Alpine Navigation Software in several ways:

• if you need a simple route (a route with only one destination, without any intermediate waypoints), you can select the destination and start navigating to it right away

• you can plan a multi-point route

• you can also plan a route independently of your current GPS position or even without GPS

reception

7.1 Selecting the destination of a route

Alpine Navigation Software offers you several ways of choosing your destination and waypoints (intermediate destinations):

• Use the selected location on the map (the Cursor) (page 28).

• Enter a full address or a part of an address, for example a street name without a house number

or the names of two intersecting streets (page 29).

• Enter an address with postal code (page 34). This way you do not need to select the name of the settlement and the search for street names might be faster as well.

• Use a coordinate (page 37)

• Use a saved location:

• a Favourite (page 35)

• a POI (page 35)

• the History of previously set destinations and waypoints (page 36)

7.1.2.7 Tips on entering addresses quickly

• When you are entering the name of a settlement or a street, Alpine Navigation Software only displays those characters that appear in possible search results. The other characters are greyed out.

• When entering the settlement name or the street name, tap the button after a couple of letters; Alpine Navigation Software lists the items that contain the specified letters.

• You can speed up finding an intersection:

• Search first for the street with a less common or less usual name; fewer letters are

enough to find it.

• If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You can then find the second one faster.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

• You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If the same word appears in several names, for example in the name of streets, roads and avenues, you can obtain the result faster if you enter the first letter of the street type: For example, enter PI A to obtain Pine Avenue and skip all Pine Streets and Pickwick Roads.

• You can also search in postal codes. This is useful when a street name is common and it is used in several districts of a city.

7.2 Creating a multi-point route (inserting a waypoint)

Multi-point routes are created from simple routes, so a route must be active first with your final destination. The way of expanding the route is to keep the destination, and to add waypoints (intermediate destinations).

1. Select a new location as you did in the previous sections. This will be the additional destination in the route.

2. The map appears with the selected point in the middle.

3. Tap .

4. Tap to add the point as an intermediate destination preceding the final destination of the route.

5. [optional] To add more points to the route, repeat the above steps as many times as you like.

If you insert a waypoint in a route that is already a multi-point route, you will automatically be taken to the Edit Route screen where you can determine the position of the intermediate route point. When you enter the screen, the new waypoint is placed as the first waypoint to be reached. The new point is the highlighted point in the list.

You have the following options:

When you save a route, Alpine Navigation Software not only saves the route points but the whole itinerary:

• The saved route might have been influenced by TMC information. When you later use the route, it appears as it was saved. But if it needs to be recalculated, the current TMC information will be used in the new route.

• If you updated your map since you first saved the route, Alpine Navigation Software recognises the change, and recalculates the driving instructions according to the latest available map information.

• If you want to save the route, you need to save it before you start navigating. During navigation, Alpine Navigation Software deletes any waypoints that you already left behind together with the road segments used to reach it.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

7.10 Loading a saved route

1. Tap the following buttons: , , , .

2. Tap the route you wish to navigate.

3. In the very likely case when the start position of the saved route is different from the current GPS position, you need to confirm whether you want to stop navigating from the current GPS position to use the start point of the loaded route.

• If you choose this option, automatic off-route recalculation will be disabled.

• If you choose to keep the current GPS position as the start point, the route will be

recalculated starting from your current position.

8.1 Map screen

Alpine Navigation Software is primarily intended for land navigation. That is why maps in Alpine Navigation Software look similar to paper road maps. However, Alpine Navigation Software provides much more than regular paper maps: you can customise the look and the content of the map.

The most important and most often used screen of Alpine Navigation Software is the Map screen.

During navigation, the screen shows route information and trip data (left screenshot), but when you tap the map, additional buttons and controls appear for a few seconds (right screenshot). Most parts of the screen behave as buttons.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

9 Glossary

2D/3D GPS reception

The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to calculate its (your) position and needs at least four signals to give a three-dimensional position including elevation. Because the satellites are moving and because objects can block the signals, your GPS device might not receive four signals. If three satellites are available, the receiver can calculate the horizontal GPS position but the accuracy is lower and the GPS device does not give you elevation data: only 2D reception is possible.

Active route

The currently navigated route. You can save and load routes in Alpine Navigation Software, but only one route can be active at any given time and it is always active until you delete it, reach your destination or you quit Alpine Navigation Software. See also: Route.

City Centre

GPS accuracy

Several factors have impact on the deviation between your real position and the one given by the GPS device. For example, signal delay in the ionosphere or reflecting objects near the GPS device have a different and varying impact on how accurately the GPS device can calculate your position.

Map

Alpine Navigation Software works with digital maps which are not simply the computerised versions of traditional paper maps. Similarly to the paper road maps, the 2D mode of digital maps show you streets, roads and elevation is also shown by colours.

In 3D mode, you can see the altitude differences, for example valleys and mountains, elevated roads, and in selected cities 3D landmarks and 3D buildings are also displayed.

You can use digital maps interactively: you can zoom in and out (increase or decrease the scale), you can tilt them up and down and rotate them left and right. In GPS-supported navigation, digital maps facilitate route planning.

North-up map orientation

In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This is the orientation in 2D Northup view mode. See also: Track-up map orientation.

NVE-M300P Navigation Module Owner’s Manual

Route

A series of destinations to be reached one after the other. A simple route contains one start point and only one destination. Multi-point routes contain one or more waypoints (intermediate destinations). The last route point is the final destination and the route is cut into different legs (from one destination to the next).

Scheme

Alpine Navigation Software comes with different colour schemes for the map for daytime or night use. Schemes are custom graphic settings for the map and they can have different colours for streets, blocks or surface waters in 2D and 3D modes and they display shades or shadows in different ways in 3D mode.

One daytime scheme and one night scheme is always selected. Alpine Navigation Software uses them when it switches from day to night and back.

Track-up map orientation

In Track-up mode the map is rotated so its top always points in the current driving direction. This is the default orientation in 3D map view mode. See also: North-up map orientation.

Road Safety Camera

A special POI type for speed cameras and red light cameras. Different data sources are available and you can also mark the position of a Road Safety Camera on the map.

You can configure Alpine Navigation Software to warn you when you approach one of these cameras. Detecting the location of Road Safety Cameras is prohibited in certain countries. It is the sole

responsibility of the driver to check whether this feature can be used during the trip.
