1. Introduction
Whether you travel in your own country, or overseas, Smart™ will direct you to your destination without the need for map books and second-hand instructions.
The Global Positioning System is available free of charge, at any time, and depending on your GPS receiver, may be accurate to within 5 m (15 ft). Smart
maps provide street level detail for door-to-door navigation, including Points of
Interest (POIs) such as accommodation, railway stations and airports.
Use this manual to help you install Smart
, learn how to operate it effectively and safely and discover the range of
features available to you.
GPS and GPS Signals
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a network of satellites that transmit accurate time and position information worldwide. GPS receivers receive signals from these satellites, and use the information to determine an exact location.
GPS satellites orbit the Earth at around 12,000 miles. While a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only three are needed to provide the two-dimensional position or “fix” (latitude and longitude) required for vehicle navigation systems. GPS data is available free of charge for any user.
Smart
is designed to use GPS information to find your current position, and calculate the best route to your desired destination using the available road maps. Smart will then guide you with voice and visual commands to your destination using the continuous stream of GPS data to track your position.

while driving.

18. Continuous Continental Navigation*
You can seamlessly navigate between installed maps without the need for installing all maps en route. This is achieved by using a Basemap. A Basemap is a map of a large area, such as West Europe or the United States, containing main roads that connect cities and towns. You can select a road or POI on the Basemap as your start point or destination.
Basemaps:
• contain roads and ferry connections of high national and international importance.
• use less memory than would be necessary to install all equivalent detailed maps.
• do not include smaller roads and have a reduced level of geographical detail.
You can add and remove Basemaps using the Basemap Installer.
* Navigating in Australia or New Zealand does not require a Basemap

Bluetooth GPS Receiver | User Manual
1. Introduction
Whether you travel in your own country, or overseas, the Bluetooth™ GPS Receiver will provide you with a Global Positioning System (GPS) based location accurate to within 5 m (15 ft) for 95% of the time.
The Bluetooth GPS Receiver contains:
• A GPS antenna to receive signals from the GPS satellites,
• An internal microcomputer to calculate the position of the receiver on Earth, and
• A Bluetooth link to send the GPS position to your PDA within a radius of less than 10 m (33 ft)
.
When using in a vehicle, the Bluetooth GPS Receiver can be mounted on your dash or back window in a position where it has a clear view of the sky and can receive GPS signals easily.
GPS and GPS Signals
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a network of satellites that transmit accurate time and position information worldwide. GPS receivers receive signals from these satellites, and use the information to determine their exact location.
GPS satellites orbit the Earth at around 12,000 miles. While a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only three are needed to provide a two-dimensional position or “fix” (latitude and longitude) required for vehicle navigation systems. GPS data is available free of charge for any user.
The Bluetooth GPS Receiver will send the GPS position information to your PDA which may then be used by your third-party software to plot your position on a map and direct you to your destination.
Safety Notice
In a vehicle, it is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use the Bluetooth GPS Receiver in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. It is your sole responsibility to observe safe driving practices and to ensure that the vehicle mount installation instructions are read carefully, understood and used consistently with the laws of operation for each country in which the device is used.
It is your sole responsibility to adhere to the following safety instructions at all times:
• Do not operate the Bluetooth GPS Receiver while driving or place the receiver in a position that obstructs the driver’s view
• Do not mount in a way that interferes with airbags or other safety equipment
• Do not leave in view while your vehicle is unattended, especially in strong sunlight
• Do not use or handle the Bluetooth GPS Receiver when it is hot, leave it to cool out of direct sunlight.
Navman disclaim all liability for use of this product in a way that may cause accidents, damage or that may violate law.

• Specify the outbound COM port in your third-party software to receive GPS data from the Bluetooth GPS Receiver.
Note: If using Navman™ Smart, the COM Port is specified on the GPS Status screen. See the Smart User Manual for more information.
You are now ready to obtain a GPS fix.
Getting a GPS Fix
The term "GPS fix" is used to describe when your Bluetooth GPS Receiver has enough information from three or more GPS satellites to calculate your position. You can monitor the strength of the GPS signal using your third-party software.
Note: If using Navman Smart, the GPS status can be monitored on the GPS Status screen. See the Smart User Manual for more information.
When you turn on your Bluetooth GPS Receiver, it may take several minutes to get the first GPS fix. You can minimise the amount of time this takes by:
• Positioning the Bluetooth GPS Receiver according to the guidelines in Chapter 4.
• Remaining stationary until the Bluetooth GPS Receiver has a GPS fix.
