The Traffic Assist Highspeed

Navigation

Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning
System, you no longer need to spend

hours searching through road atlases.
Once outside buildings, the receiver an­tenna integrated in the unit gives you
continuous access to navigational possi­bilities. Depending on reception, you
may not be able to use the navigational
function inside buildings. When used in
vehicles, you may not be able to adequa­tely receive GPS data depending on how
the Traffic Assist Highspeed is installed.
In such cases, you will have to connect
up an external antenna (does not fall
within the scope of supply).
The Traffic Assist Highspeed II is equip­ped with TMC*, which gives you the op­tion of receiving traffic announcements
via the TMC antenna provided. Traffic
announcements are transmitted when
the TMC is active. The system plans an
alternative route automatically or on re­quest to avoid traffic problems, depen­ding on the setting.

*Applies only to the Traffic Assist Highspeed II

General operations

Maintenance and care

The unit is maintenance-free.
For proper care, a commercially availab­le cleansing fluid for electrical devices
may be applied using a soft damp cloth.

Danger!

Danger to life by electrocution. Always
switch off the unit and disconnect the
mains power supply unit before clea­ning the unit, supplied components, or
accessories.

Note:

Do not use any aggressive or abrasive
substances or cloths which may damage
the surface.
The unit must not be exposed to water.

Your mobile navigation system was de­signed and manufactured with great care
and should be treated with equal care.
You will enjoy your mobile navigation
system for a long time to come if you ob­serve the recommendations listed in the
following:

• "Protect your mobile navigation sys­tem from water and moisture. If your
unit is exposed to moisture, switch it
off immediately and disconnect the
power supply. Allow the unit to dry at
room temperature.

• Do not operate your mobile navigation
system in a dusty or dirty environment
and do not store it in such an environ­ment.

• Do not store your mobile navigation
system in hot environments. High
temperatures can shorten the service
life of electronic components in your
unit, damage the rechargeable batte­ries and cause certain plastics to warp
or melt.

• Do not store your mobile navigation
system in cold environments. During
operation, when the unit warms up to
operating temperature, moisture may
form internally, causing damage to
electronic components.

• Do not drop your mobile navigation
system unit, protect it from shocks and
do not shake it. Improper handling can
damage components within the unit.

• Never use corrosive or aggressive che­micals, cleaning solutions or aggressi­ve detergents for cleaning.

All the above information applies equal­ly to the mobile navigation system, the
rechargeable battery, the mains charging
and car power adapters as well as all ac­cessories. Should one of these parts not
work properly, please contact your au­thorised dealer. He will be pleased to as­sist.

General operations

Battery quality declaration

The capacity of the rechargeable battery
in your mobile navigation system decre­ases with every charging/discharging
cycle. Improper storage at excessively
high or low temperatures may also cause
a gradual deterioration of capacity. Con­sequently, the operating time may be
substantially reduced even in the case of
a fully charged battery.
The rechargeable battery is designed
such that it should certainly still be pos­sible for it to be charged and discharged
after 6 months of operation of your mo­bile navigation system. In the event of a
significant loss of capacity, we recom­mend replacement of the rechargeable
battery. Please contact your authorised
dealer. Use only genuine BECKER ori­ginal spare parts.

Display quality declaration

In some cases, for technical reasons, a
few discoloured dots (pixels) may be vi­sible on the display. Some pixels may
also appear brighter or darker. However,
such instances do not represent a product
flaw.

Start-up

Once the Traffic Assist Highspeed has
been unpacked and checked for damage,
the unit can be started up. The individual
start-up stages are:

• insert memory card

• connect to power supply

• Switching on the unit

• Ensuring antenna reception (if navi­gation is desired)

Note:

When the unit is switched on for the
first time, internal configuration takes
place. This takes several minutes. Do
not switch the unit off during this confi­guration.

Memory card

The card supplied with the unit can hold
one set of roadmaps. If you intend to lis­ten to music using the Traffic Assist
Highspeed or want to view images, you
must save these to a separate card (not
included).
Playback of music while an active navi­gation is in progress is only possible if a
memory card with a higher storage capa­city is used (available separately, for­matted with the FAT 16 file system).
This can be used to store additional map
material as well as music tracks.

More maps

When supplied, a set of maps is already
installed on the memory card. If this is
insufficient for the current location, the­re are others on the DVD supplied. The­se should be loaded on to the memory
card. The countries covered by the indi­vidual map sets appear in the installer
prior to installation.

Map loaded

The map currently loaded can be called
up directly from Traffic Assist High­speed (see also page 49).

Installation program

There is a map installation program on
the map DVD. Once the DVD is inserted
in a personal computer's DVD drive, this
program will usually start up automati­cally. The program guides you through
the installation process.
Otherwise, you will have to start the pro­gram manually.

X Open Windows
X Select your DVD drive folder.

Transferring files

Files can be transferred indirectly via the
memory card or directly via the USB
port.

Note:

Only the maps supplied in the Traffic
Assist Highspeed may be used. The in­stallation or transfer of files or pro­grams which limit or modify the func­tion of the Traffic Assist Highspeed is
prohibited!

Transferring using the SD card reader

The simplest and fastest form of transfer
is to use a standard SD card reader (does
not fall within the scope of supply). The
memory card is plugged into this.
The files required are then saved on
the memory card using the computer's
software.

28

General operations

Transferring using the USB port

The USB port is used to link the Traffic
Assist Highspeed directly to a personal
computer.
For transfers, the Microsoft
Active Sync program must be installed
on the computer. This is available free­of-charge from the manufacturer.

5017

The link then involves several steps:

X switch off Traffic Assist Highspeed.
X link the Traffic Assist Highspeed and

computer using the USB cable.

X switch the Traffic Assist Highspeed

back on.
ActiveSync automatically sets up a link
to the Traffic Assist Highspeed.

Transferring maps

The installation software from the DVD
should be used for the transfer. This in­volves the following stages:

X switch off Traffic Assist Highspeed.

®

X remove memory card and plug into an

SD card reading device or the use the
USB cable to connect the Traffic As­sist Highspeed to the computer.

X boot up the computer and insert the

DVD.

X use the installation program to transfer

the map required.

X slide the memory card back into the

Traffic Assist Highspeed or correctly
remove the USB cable.

X switch the Traffic Assist Highspeed

back on. The new map is available
right away

Transferring pieces of music and pictures

Since the map data takes up virtually all
the 1GB memory capacity of the memo­ry card supplied, pictures and music
should be saved on to another SD card.
The files can be transferred via a card
reader or the USB connection.

Note:

Use obvious folder names because the­se will help you later when you are
trying to find the file you want in the
Traffic Assist Highspeed.

29

Faults

If unit faults relating to the operating
system occur, messages to this effect
will be displayed. These should be ack­nowledged. If the activated function
cannot then be executed, the Traffic As­sist Highspeed must be restarted using
the ON/OFF switch or the reset button.
If the messages reappear or the unit
does not function correctly for any other
reason, please contact your local sto­ckist.

Note:

Never attempt to open the unit yourself.
Please contact your authorised dealer if
you are unable to remedy the fault.

What is navigation?

Navigation (Latin navigare = to travel
by sea) is generally understood to mean
finding the position of a vehicle, deter­mining the direction of and distance
from the desired destination and establi­shing and following a route to this desti­nation. Navigational aids include the
stars, distinct objects, a compass and sa­tellites.
The Traffic Assist Highspeed uses its
GPS receiver to find the vehicle's positi­on. (The Global Positioning System
(GPS) was developed by the US military
in the 1970's as a missile guidance sys­tem.
GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites
circling the earth which continuously
emit signals. The GPS receiver receives
these signals and uses the delay of each
of the signals to calculate its distance
from the individual satellites. In turn, it
can use this information to determine its
current geographical position.

The signals of at least three satellites are
needed to establish position. If four or
more signals are available, height above
sea level can also be calculated).
Traffic Assist Highspeed determines the
direction of and distance to the destinati­on with the aid of a digital road atlas on
the SD card and the navigation compu­ter.
For safety, directions to the designation
are mainly provided verbally. The di-
rection display and map diagram on the
touch screen are further aids.

What is dynamic route guidance?*

Dynamic route guidance calculates the
route, while taking into account current
traffic announcements.

Note:

Dynamic route guidance is not availab­le for all countries (currently only Bel­gium, Germany, Denmark, France, Ita­ly, The Netherlands, Austria, Sweden,
Switzerland and Spain).
TMC reception must be available in or­der to activate dynamic navigation and
the functions described below.

Traffic announcements are transmitted
by radio stations via the TMC (Traffic
Message Channel) in addition to the
radio programme and are received and
analysed by the navigation system.
Receiving traffic announcements is free
of charge.

56

Navigational mode

Note:

As the traffic announcements are trans­mitted by radio stations, we cannot as­sume responsibility for the complete­ness or accuracy of the announcements.
Austria: The location and event code
was made available by ASFINAG and
BMVIT.

If dynamic route guidance is active, a
continuous check is made for the
presence of relevant announcements for
the selected route (however, traffic
problems still appear on the map even
when route guidance is not active).

6071

If these continuous checks determine
that a traffic announcement is relevant to
route guidance, the unit will
automatically recalculate a new route to
the destination (See “The TMC button*”
on page 54.).

Displaying TMC messages on the map*

Current TMC messages are displayed on
the map in graphic form. Sections of the
route where there are problems with
traffic are highlighted green. A black
arrow also indicates the direction of the
traffic jam.
In addition to the coloured mark, a
warning sign is displayed on the stretch
of road affected.

6071

Using TMC*

Once you have connected the TMC
antenna, your Traffic Assist Highspeed
will receive current traffic
announcements and dynamic route
calculation will be enabled (traffic jam
diversion). You can also view traffic
announcements directly.

Specialist words

Active Sync

Active Sync is a Microsoft product.
This is the standard synchronisation
software for Windows mobile units such
as your Traffic Assist Highspeed. The
programme can be downloaded free-of­charge from the internet.

GMT

(Greenwich Mean Time)
Central European Time
The standard time at 0 degrees of longi­tude (the longitude which passes
through Greenwich, Great Britain). This
time is used worldwide for the synchro­nisation of data collection.

GPS

(Global Positioning System)
GPS determines your actual geographi­cal position by the use of satellites. It is
based on 24 satellites which orbit the
Earth and emit signals. The GPS receiv­er receives these signals and calculates
the distance to each satellite from the
running time differences and thus evalu­ates its actual current position in terms
of geographical length and width. In or­der to determine the position, signals
from at least three satellites are required,
and the fourth one allows the height to
be determined.

HDOP

(Horizontal Dilution Of Precision)
HDOP states the quality of the positional
dtermination. In theory, values from 0 to
50 are possible, whereby the following
applies: the smaller the value the more
accurate the positioning (value 0= no de­viation from the actual position). Values
of up to 8 are acceptable for navigation
units.

Specialist words

ID3-Tag

„Index of Contents" of an MP3 title.
Contains information such as title, artist,
album, year and genre.

JPG/JPEG

(Joint Photographic Experts Group)
The JPEG is the most common type
of storage format for dissipating picture
compression., i.e. when compressing,
details of the picture are lost. Still pro­vides good picture quality despite com­pression, compression stages are se­lectable. It is the most common format
for representation and exchange of pic­tures on the internet.

Memory Card

A re-writable storage card. In the Traffic
Assist Highspeed it is a SD card.

MP3

Special compression process for audio
data (e.g. music).

78

Specialist words

File

Index
File on a CD/storage card/microdrive
which contains MPS titles.

SD Card

(Secure Digital)
The Secure Digital Card was developed
in 2001 by SanDisk on the basis of
the older MMC standard. An SD card is
a re-writable change-over storage card.

Stylus

A stylus is an input pointer which is
used for the operation of touch-screens,
mobile phones or PDAs.
The stylus consists basically of a plastic
pointer with a softer plastic core. The
sleeve is hard and can be gripped and
the softer core emerges at the tip and is
designed to touch the screen as softly as
possible (i.e. without the danger of
scratching the screen).
The stylus is more accurate than opera­tion using the fingers, since only the thin
tip touches the screen. In addition, dirty
marks on the screen caused by finger
prints are avoided.

TMC

(Traffic Message Channel)
Traffic announcements transmitted by
most FM stations via RDS. Basis for dy­namic navigation.

USB

(Universal Serial Bus)
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a bus
sytem for interconnection of a computer
with external USB peripherals for the
exchange of data.
