Nokia E90 Communicator Using Nokia Maps

Introduction

With Nokia Maps, you can see the current location on the map, browse maps for different cities and countries, search for addresses and different points of interest, plan

Introduction

routes from one location to another, and save locations as landmarks and send them to compatible devices.

The use of Nokia Maps requires downloading of map data. The maps are free of charge. However, your service provider might charge for the transfer of the map data. Please ask your provider for details.

You can also purchase extra services such as city guides and a turn-by-turn navigation service with voice guidance.

System requirements

• Nokia E90 Communicator.

• Packet data connectivity.

• Device memory or compatible memory card with at least 5 MB of free space.

GPS

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States government and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. The integrated GPS receiver of your Nokia E90 Communicator works best outdoors since this allows reception of GPS signals.

GPS should only be used as a navigation aid. It should not be used for precise location measurement and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver for positioning or navigation.

Positioning methods and server

The integrated GPS receiver of your Nokia E90 Communicator may have difficulties providing reliable positions in some environments. Therefore it is suggested that before using Nokia Maps you also activate the Assisted GPS (A-GPS) that uses assistance servers with good satellite signal to provide positioning information.

To set the active positining methods:

1 Select > Tools > Settings > General > Positioning >

Positioning methods.

2 Select the methods you want to use by scrolling to the

method and selecting Options > Enable. Make sure have

Assisted GPS and Integrated GPS enabled.

3 Select Back to accept the settings.

In addition to the positioning methods, set also the positioning server used to access GPS data.

1 Select > Tools > Settings > General > Positioning >

Positioning server.

Introduction

2 In Access point, press the scroll key and select an access

point that is available in the environment where you plan to use Nokia Maps. Note that a wireless LAN access point is usually not ideal for navigating. In Server address, press the scroll key and type in the address of your positioning server. The default server is supl.nokia.com.

3 Select Back to accept the settings.

Getting started

Select > GPS > Maps.

Getting started

Internal GPS receiver

Your Nokia E90 Communicator has an internal GPS receiver. You can use it for detecting your current position and for turn-by-turn navigation (extra service). The GPS receiver takes its power from the battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.

Setting up network connections

When you use Nokia Maps for the first time, you may need to define an internet access point for downloading map information for your current location.

Getting started with the map

When you open Nokia Maps, you see an overview of the globe. To find your GPS position, press 0 or select Options >

Find place > GPS position. When the device asks for

confirmation to search for GPS signal, answer OK.

This starts searching for a satellite signal, and Nokia Maps starts to locate your device, and zooms in to your current location. At the same time, Nokia Maps downloads the map of your current location. The maps are automatically saved in the device memory or on a compatible memory card (if inserted).

You can browse the map, show information about the different locations shown on it and, for example, choose them for route planning and turn-by-turn navigation (extra service).

Digital cartography may be inaccurate and incomplete to some extent. Never rely solely on the cartography that you download for use in this device.

Downloading maps may involve the transmission of large amounts of data through your service provider's network. Contact your service provider for information about data transmission charges.

You can also use Nokia Map Loader. This PC application allows you to select and download maps of available regions or countries to your PC and transfer them to your Nokia E90 Communicator. You can also download voice skins for turn-by-turn navigation. For more information, see “Using Nokia Map Loader”, p. 19 and maps.nokia.com.

The details of the map are explained in the following:

1 GPS position / selected location – The blue square

indicates your current GPS position or a selected position on the map. The map not only shows streets and squares, but also points of interest such as restaurants, cultural attractions, car parks, and so on.

You can define the depth of detail of the map by choosing which types of locations are displayed. One-way streets are marked with a red arrow pointing in the direction in which the street can be driven.

2 Data transfer indicator and data counter – The data

transfer indicator shows any data transfer activity on your device. The indicator blinks when data is being transferred. The data counter displays the amount of data transferred in the current session.

3 Scale bar – The scale bar shows the scale depending

on the actual zoom level. Through the scale bar, you may estimate the distance between two points on the map. The system of measurement used is displayed in the middle of the scale bar (metric or imperial). You can change the system of measurement in the Settings.

4 GPS signal indicator – The GPS indicator shows the

availability of the GPS signal, as well as its strength. The strength is indicated by traffic lights next to the satellite symbol. The more lights there are visible, the stronger the signal. When the device is searching for a GPS position, the lights are blinking yellow. When a GPS signal is detected, the lights appear green. When no GPS signal is detected, the lights appear red.

The map is oriented towards north by default. However, during navigation, the orientation may change, for example to improve the visibility of turns. Therefore, a compass rose appears on the map during navigation, displaying the orientation of the map.

Getting started

One-way streets are marked with blue arrows pointing in the driving direction.

Note the difference between "GPS position" (your actual geographic position) and "selected" location/position, which is any other than the GPS position. You may return to the "GPS position" at any time by selecting GPS pos..
