T1 Traffic Module | Introduction
How does my T1 receive traffic information?
When used with the T1, your Navman can receive current traffic information for all main roads and motorways, enabling you to avoid potential delays on your route.
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information via the FM Radio Data System (RDS). FM radio stations transmit TMC data on a cycle of several minutes, with hundreds of Events able to be broadcast to TMC receivers, such as the T1.
Traffic status
Your current traffic status is indicated by the colour of the TMC icon in the bottom-left corner of the map screens.
The following table describes the three traffic status icons:

T1 Traffic Module | Introduction
How will I know when a Traffic Event occurs?
Your T1 begins working the moment it is installed. Incoming Events are handled according to your Traffic Preferences. For more information, see "How do I customize Traffic preferences?" on page 26.
When travelling through an area in which you can receive TMC transmissions, your T1 will decode these Events and send them to your Navman. Your Navman will display an icon at the Event location on the 3D and 2D Map screens, and an audible warning is given if an Event is on your route. Where the extent of an Event is a specific distance, the road will be highlighted and arrows will indicate the direction affected.
A message will display at the bottom of the screen used to view your route. This details the road name, the section of road affected and the type of Event that has occurred. The message remains on screen for 8 seconds and is added to the Event List.
