1.1 Important safety information

Note In your own interest, read the following notices and safety

information carefully before starting up your navigation system.

1.1.1 Safety information on navigation

The use of NCK may only be effected at your own risk.

Attention: To protect yourself and others from accidents please do not operate the navigation system while driving!

Attention: You must not look at the display except when it is absolutely safe to do so!

Attention: The road layout and the traffic signs are absolutely prior to the instructions of the navigation system.

Attention: You must not follow the instructions of NCK except when the circumstances and the road traffic regulations allow doing so. NCK will guide you to your destination even when y ou have left your planned itinerary..

Note: We recommend to effect route planning before beginning the journey. If you are on the road and you want to establish a new itinerary, please drive to the next parking site!

Note: If you have not understood the instructions or if you are not sure about what to do next you may quickly refer to the map or arrow view of your navigation system.

1.1.2 Safety information on the GPS receiver

Attention: As it is not waterproof, don’t expose your GPS

receiver to water!

Attention: Do not install the cable next to security relevant equipment and supply lines.

Attention: Please check the security relevant equipment when you have installed the navigation system.

Attention: The GPS receiver should be disconnected from the power supply while your car is parking. As it spends energy permanently you might risk discharging the car battery.

Attention: The installation of the GPS receiver must not interfere with the sure operation of your car.

Note: Do not varnish the GPS receiver. Doing so might impede the reception of GPS signals.

Note: Do not use any harsh solvents for cleaning the GPS receiver. A damp cloth is sufficient! You might damage the case of the GPS receiver.

Note: Do not unplug by pulling the cable. This might damage the cable!

Note: Do not fold the cable. Check that the cable may not be damaged by any sharp object.

1.1.3 Safety information on the installation in the vehicle

Attention: Do not fix the holder within the deployment zone of

airbags.

2.1 Operating Mode of your Navigon Configuration Kit

NCK The NAVIGON Configuration Kit (NCK) is a professional

navigation solution tailor-made for industrial customers. Alongside the pure navigation function, the NCK also offers extra functions relevant to B2B customers. The system, for example, can be used offroad as a navigation aid. Undigitalised routes can be saved as routes (tracks) and driven. In addition, data from the customer directory can be directly transferred to the NCK; in doing so, addresses are directly converted into coordinates and established as destinations.

Linking the NCK to existing systems for tour planning, contract planning or goods management is possible by means of the settings in the INI files. This individualised navigation solution also enables you to tap into complete networks, connections as well as warehouse and customer locations.

Mobility is the decisive factor for even more comfortable navigation systems. Nowadays, systems must not be built-in into the vehicle. The user must be able to carry them with him. The navigation software being installed on a laptop, a PDA or on another Windows CE client e.g. Skeye.Pad, its use is no more restricted to one single vehicle. Its service may be requested in different situations.

By returning the current GPS position, it is possible to check at any time where the vehicle is located. Alongside this, the status of the navigation can be called up at any time, hence the current distance and duration to destination can be simply conveyed. This way you can plan your tours efficiently.

TMC (Traffic Message Channel) ensures you detour traffic jams – enabling your company fleet to be en route with the shortest possible standing times. As a free-of-charge service, TMC reports on current jams and guides the driver to a jam-free alternative route in order to save valuable time. It is possible to use this service in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, F rance, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Denmark. In this way you can adapt the navigation software to your own route requirements at any time. The portrayal of company-specific destinations (user-defined POIs) in the map round off the NAVIGON Configuration Kit.

.INI Commands With NCK you may easily realise the connection to third-party

systems (like route planning, order processing or resource planning) for transmitting coordinates or address information by entering .INI parameters.

For detailed information on the .INI commands, please refer to

Special NCK functions" page 97.

Features With NCK, you will not only arrive quickly and safely at your

destination. It is the perfect tool for increasing the efficiency of your mobile navigation.

Traffic information with TMC

Based on satellites the Global Positioning System (GPS) determines your current geographical position. The GPS has originally been developed as a weapon guidance system for the American forces.

The GPS is based on 24 satellites which are in orbit round the earth. They are permanently emitting the time and their current position. The GPS receiver receives this information and calculates the longitude and the latitude of its own act ual position.

The signals of at least three satellites are needed to determine the longitude and the latitude. With the signals of at least four satellites the elevation may be calculated, too. The determination has an accuracy of about 3 yards.

points of interest, roads and towns. The navigation system can therefore calculate a path from a starting point to a destination.

If your navigation system receives the signals from at least 3 satellites it can determine your position and show it on the map. This position can serve as a starting point for a route calculation.

As a position definition and illustration takes place once per second you can follow your current position on the map at any time.

The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) provides the navigation system with the latest traffic information. A TMC module which is available as accessory receives these signals broadcasted by radio stations.

Operating mode of the TMC

The traffic situation on highways, motorways, and other routes is checked by jam sensors or by the police and other persons. The collected traffic data is transmitted to traffic guidance centres where they are evaluated and sent to the radio stations. The stations are broadcasting the data inaudibly via RDS (Radio Data Signal).

The TMC-receiver extracts the TMC data from the RDS signal and provides the navigation software with them. Current traffic obstructions may then be displayed. The reported obstructions may be considered for route calculation. In case of obstructions on the computed itinerary they may be used for computing an alternative route which evades the obstruction.

NCK features dynamic navigation which is well adapted to the current traffic situation.

Note: In case the symbol No TMC is shown, the TMC-module is possibly not inserted correctly, or the GPS-receiver is not connected correctly. No TMC is also shown when your navigation system does not dispose of a TMC-receiver.

For details on the operation of the TMC module, please refer to

Using TMC functionality", page 92.

" The initialisation process of the GPS receiver starts automatically.

Within 15 seconds, the GPS-icon on your Pocket PC switches from

No GPS to No signal. As soon as the signals of more than 3 satellites are being

received, the GPS-icon switches to GPS ready.

GPS ready

This procedure may take about 20 minutes. When the GPS icon becomes GPS ready earlier, it would be good to leave the GPS receiver turned on for about 15 more minutes in order to grant its correct operation.

The initialisation process is finished when the reception of more

than 3 satellites is assured after about 20 seconds. Note: This initialisation process must be carried out only once.

The other times, the GPS receiver will be ready within about one minute.

Note: When the GPS receiver is connected to the power supply for the first time, leave it connected for about 2 hours in order to charge its battery.

Note: A new initialisation may become necessary when the GPS receiver has not been in use. In this case, the initialisation process would take about 10 minutes.

Caution: Disconnect the receiver from the power supply when you are leaving the car parked for a longer period. Failure to do so might result in a flat battery as the receiver consumes electricity permanently.
