User’s Guide iii
Getting Started
HP iPAQ Navigation System is a full featured software using the latest in satellite technology and
detailed street maps from Navigation Technologies. This software guides you through the most
complex streets with ease.
The HP iPAQ Navigation System is referred to as Navigation System in this
User’s Guide.
The Navigation System is designed for the HP iPAQ PocketPC. Since the map of the United States
and Canada is very large, it does not fit on the HP iPAQ PocketPC. You can transfer map data by
city or state, but not both at the same time. To transfer the portion of the map you want to your
iPAQ PocketPC, use the companion map loading software on your desktop (or laptop). The time
needed to download a map varies based on system capabilities.
When you travel to a different area of the country, the map loader lets you easily change the maps
on your iPAQ PocketPC, as needed.
CAUTION! You should limit the size of the map data downloaded to your iPAQ
PocketPC to <100 MB. If you download too much data, Navigation System
may not run. You must then perform a soft reset and remove the maps from
the SD or CF card.

Receiving Satellite Signals
If the connection is not active, manually partner the Bluetooth GPS receiver with the iPAQ PocketPC. For more information, refer to Manually Partnering the Bluetooth GPS Receiver with the
iPaQ PocketPC section.
Receiving Satellite Signals
The Bluetooth GPS Receiver gets satellite signals only when there is a clear view of the sky. Trees
and tall buildings can block the view. Generally, you do not receive signals inside a building.
The Bluetooth GPS Receiver should be placed on the front or back dashboard
of the vehicle.
A wireless connection between the Bluetooth GPS Receiver and iPAQ PocketPC is established through the receiver radio. The Bluetooth GPS receiver
and the iPAQ PocketPC should be no further than 5-10 meters apart.
Once a connection is established between the Bluetooth GPS Receiver and iPAQ PocketPC, satellite signals are received. When you first use the Bluetooth GPS Receiver, it can take from five to
fifteen minutes to receive a satellite signal. Thereafter, it should take approximately 90 seconds to
receive signals.
Some days, you receive a GPS signal quicker than on other days. Although
GPS signals orbit the earth in set patterns, they are not always over the same
position on earth. There is more extensive coverage over lower latitudes and
less near the poles.
Based on satellite position, geographic location, and heading, you can experience the following:
User’s Guide 2-9
Setting Up the Bluetooth GPS Receiver
Receiving Satellite Signals
Satellite signals are received quicker at specific times of the day. For example, at 10 A.M., you
can receive signals under a minute since there are more satellites visible in the sky. At 3 P.M.,
you may not receive signals because only two satellites are visible in the sky
.
Buildings can block satellite signals. Setting up the GPS receiver in a vertical window blocks at
least 50% of the sky. Trees also can block satellite signals.
A window with a Southern view, rather than Northern view, should be used to receive signals.
The Bluetooth GPS Receiver needs at least three satellite connections. Using Navigation Sys-
tem, check the GPS Receiver status as follows:
Tap the View tab > GPS Info.
Tap the Menu button > GPS icon.
The GPS Info screen displays.
The Bluetooth GPS receiver performs at its best when the battery is fully
charged. If you are at a location receiving weak signals, verify the Bluetooth
GPS receiver is connected to the DC power charger.
The strongest GPS connection has 4 or more satellites available and the vehicle position displays in green on the map. If there are 3 satellites available, the vehicle displays in yellow on
the map. If less than three satellites, the vehicle displays in red on the map.
If the iPAQ PocketPC loses connection with a GPS device, tap Tools > GPS Options > Auto
Detect > OK for Navigation System to search for GPS Devices.
