Additional Functions during Navigation
Supposing that you are on the motorways and hear a traffi c announcement on the radio about a traffi c jam
of 5 miles on your route. In this case,
you can use a manual blocking of the
section to evade the traffi c jam.
The manual blocking is only applicable to the current navigation and is no
longer available for a new navigation
or after a restart of the program.
Route segments are blocked as follows:
Prerequisite:
You are in the map display during
•
a navigation.
➜ Briefl y touch any position on the
map.
➜ Select the Block road entry.
The Block road menu displays.
➜ Enter the number of miles, start-

red.
Unblocking
➜ Briefl y touch any position on the

Using the TMC Functionality
Traffi c Reports with TMC
The Traffi c Message Channel (TMC)
supplies your TravelPilot with traffi c
reports. This is made possible by a
Blaupunkt car sound system with
TMC receiver that receives the traffi c
reports broadcast by the radio stations.
TMC Mode of Operation
The Traffi c Message Channel, or TMC,
is a standard defi ned throughout Europe that can be used by all radio
stations and is broadcast using the
RDS signal (Radio Data System) of
a radio programme. The traffi c situation on motorways and some federal highways is monitored by traffi c
jam sensors or traffi c jam detectors
and the police. These traffi c data
are forwarded to the traffi c control
centres, which analyse the data and
transmit them to the radio stations.
From there, the data are transmitted
directly via TMC.
The TMC receiver fi lters the digital
traffi c data from the RDS signal and
forwards them to the TravelPilot. Current traffi c obstructions (e.g. constructions or traffi c jams) are then
graphically displayed on the map and
in a list.
The transmitted traffi c reports can
be incorporated in the route calculation by the TravelPilot and used for
calculating an alternative route in
case of disturbances on the calculated route.
This allows the TravelPilot to present
a dynamic navigation that is adjusted
to the traffi c situation.
If you connected a TMC receiver that
supplies the TravelPilot with current
traffi c reports and allows for the calculation of dynamic routes (traffi c
jam bypass), you can view the traffi c
reports directly in TravelPilot.

GPS Mode of Operation
The Global Positioning System (GPS)
was developed in the 70's by the US
military.
GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that are orbiting the earth and
sending out signals. The GPS receiver
receives these signals and calculates
its distance to the individual satellites using the propagation time of
the signals. This information is then
used to determine its current geographical position.
The positioning requires signals from
at least three satellites, and starting
with the fourth one it is also possible
to determine the altitude above sea
level. The positioning is carried out
with an accuracy to 10 feet.
Navigation with GPS. The provided
maps also contain the geographical
coordinates of the displayed points
of interest, streets and towns. This
allows the navigation system to calculate a route from a starting point to
a place of destination.
Page 77
GPS MP3/WMA Mode
If the TravelPilot receives the signals
from at least 3 satellites, it can determine its position and display it on the
map. This position can then be used
as the starting point for a route calculation. Since a positioning and position display is carried out once every
second, you can view your movement
on the map.
MP3/WMA Mode
The TravelPilot can be used to play
MP3 audio fi les in MP3 format and
WMA from SD cards. The playback
utilizes either the internal loudspeaker, headphones connected via the
headphone jack or a car sound system connected via the cradle.
Preparing the SD Card
The TravelPilot can play MP3/WMA
fi les from SD cards. The SD cards
should be formatted using either the
FAT 32 or FAT 16 format.
The MP3/WMA fi les can be stored either at the top directory level or in
folders on the SD card. You can also
mix MP3/WMA fi les and other fi les
(e.g. .jpg fi les) in one folder. In MP3/
WMA mode, all other data are ignored
by the TravelPilot and only MP3/WMA
fi les are being played.

Frequently Asked
Questions FAQ
Why does the TravelPilot require
GPS reception?
The system must know where it is located or where it is moving. This is
accomplished with the help of GPS
satellites. Without GPS reception,
navigating is not possible.
I have bad or no satellite reception.
What can I do to improve it?
One obstacle could be the metalevaporated windshield or a windshield heater. The metal evaporation
prevents the GPS signals from reaching the built-in antenna of the TravelPilot. As an alternative, an external
GPS antenna (e.g. outside the vehicle) must be connected.
Blaupunkt offers an optional external
antenna as an accessory.

No GPS Reception
If your TravelPilot should be without
GPS reception for an extended period of time (which could occur if the
device is switched off, e.g. after air
travel), perform a GPS reset:
• If necessary, separate the Travel-
Pilot from the power plug.
• Open the battery cover and set
the switch to "OFF".
• Wait 10 seconds and set the
switch to "ON".
• Move to the outside. The Travel-
Pilot automatically searches for
GPS signals. After a few minutes,
your TravelPilot is operational
again.
The loudspeaker of the TravelPilot is
too soft for me; what can I do?
The use of the cradle in conjunction
with a car sound system with Tel.-In/
Aux-In allows for using the loudspeakers for the playback.

FAQ
The built-in loudspeaker does not
meet my quality demands. What can
I do?
The TravelPilot can be connected to a
car sound system with Tel.-In/Aux-In,
so that the loudspeakers can be used
for the playback. The sound should
improve signifi cantly.
In which countries is TMC reception
possible?
The following countries currently offer TMC: Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Great Britain, Belgium,
Netherlands, Austria, France, Switzerland, Italy, Spain.
The following countries plan on introducing TMC in the near future: Hungary, Czech Republic, Portugal.
Additional countries will follow.
What is the SD slot of the TravelPilot used for?
The SD slot is used to accept SD
cards with a capacity of up to 2 GB.
The following data can be stored on
the SD card:
Navigation data of other countries
•
(depth-digitised)
MP3/WMA fi les for playback
•
Pictures in the JPEG format.
•
How can I listen to MP3/WMA music?
With the help of a PC, the MP3/WMA
fi les are stored on the card which is
then inserted in the SD card slot of
the TravelPilot. In conjunction with
the cradle, they can also be played
over the car sound system.
Can the navigation software be
changed?
Yes. Depth-digitised data are provided on SD cards. Simply insert the
card in the SD card slot and you can
immediately navigate with the new
data.
The internal navigation software remains intact and you can use either
the internal navigation software or
the one on the SD card for the selection.

FAQ
Is the old internal navigation software overwritten with a change of
the navigation software?
No, the system can navigate with
the internal as well as the external
data. If the external data (SD card)
are used for navigation, the SD slot
for the MP3/WMA playback for the
TravelPilot is unavailable during this
time.
Can the internal navigation software
be changed?
Yes. The data of the SD card can be
loaded in the internal memory. For
this purpose, insert the card in the
SD card slot and initiate the loading
process via menu.
How long does the loading take from
the SD card to the internal memory?
The loading process lasts approx. 15
minutes and is dependent upon the
data size. For this reason, the individual countries are delivered as completely manufactured maps.
94
The data do not have to be loaded
from the SD card into the internal
memory.
Is it possible to play WMA fi les with
DRM protection?
The playback of WMA fi les with Digital Rights Management protection
(WMA-DRM) is not possible since the
license key is not transferred during
the transfer of the WMA fi le from the
PC.
The playback of WMA fi les without
DRM protection is, of course, possible.
Can the GPS antenna prefi tted in
the vehicle be connected?
No, this requires an antenna matched
to the TravelPilot.
Most antennas requiring a 5-volt operating voltage, and the TravelPilot
provides 3 volt for the GPS antenna.
Page 95
Does the connection of the remote
control (RC09 available as an option) require an external infrared
receiver?
No. The infrared receiver is integrated in the TravelPilot.
Which cards can I use?
Commercial SD or MMC cards. We
tested SanDisk and Kingston.
