NAVIGON, INC. Version 1.1
About GPS navigation
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a constellation of up to 32 satellites that
enable a GPS receiver to calculate its geographical position.
For a sufficiently precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the data from at least
three satellites. With the data from 4 or more satellites the altitude above sea level can
also be determined.
Geographical terrain (such as mountains), man-made structures (such as highway
overpasses, bridges and tall buildings), and even weather can interfere with or disrupt
the GPS signal.
Once the navigation device has determined your position, it can be used as a starting
point for route calculation.
The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical coordinates of all
digitally recorded Points Of Interest (POIs), streets and places. This enables the
device to calculate a route between a starting point and a destination.
The calculation of the current position and its representation on the map takes place
once every second so your current position is always shown on the map.
Welcome
Introducing Your NAVIGON 8100T
If GPS reception is impaired, navigation is interrupted but the navigation software
remains active. As soon as GPS reception is restored, the navigation system calculates any change of position which has occurred in the meantime and navigation may
simply be continued.
Caution! The United States government operates the Global Positioning System
(GPS) and is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. Changes by the
United States government may affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS
equipment, including your personal navigation device.
Caution! Ordinances or laws may restrict use of certain abilities of your navigation
device on public or private land

DirectHelp
The NAVIGON DirectHelp feature offers speedy access to emergency POIs. You ca n
quickly find a telephone number and make an emergency call (when paired with a
mobile phone), find an address, get directions, and drive to help. DirectHelp also provides you with directional distance to the nearest intersection, and your latitude/longitude location. This information can help emergency personnel quickly come to your
assistance.
DirectHelp is available at any time, while you are on-route or off, and with or without
GPS reception. The last known GPS position is used when GPS reception is not available. With GPS, you can quickly find help and calculate a route to a DirectHelp POI.

• Speak directly toward the
• Provide as much information as possible. Include the directional info (North, South,
East, West) and the street type (Street, Lane, Avenue, Boulevard, etc.). A spoken
entry of “East Madison Street” returns a much shorter list of possible matches than
an entry of “Madison”.
Languages
When using voice destination entry, speak the address in the language of the location.
In the United States and all Canadian provinces except Quebec, speak the name of
the location in English. For locations in Quebec, where the language is French, speak
the French name of the province, city and street in the location language. Speak the
house number in the language used on the
