Welcome to CoPilot!

Imagine…a CoPilot at your side that always

knows where you are, where you’re going, and exactly how to get there. Now conﬁ dently drive anywhere while CoPilot, using the latest, most accurate GPS technology, shows you all the correct turns to take to reach your destination.

Better yet, if you should miss a turn, encounter heavy trafﬁ c, or simply decide to go a different way, CoPilot’s dynamic directions automatically provide you with an updated route to your destination. Keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel as CoPilot’s unique voice technology speaks the directions to you. In addition, detailed street maps show your passengers the current street location and the route to your destination.

About GPS Technology

The Global Positioning System (GPS), developed by the U.S. Department of Defense, is a constellation of 24 satellites that orbit the Earth twice daily. Each satellite contains an atomic clock that is accurate to the nanosecond and constantly emitts radio waves toward Earth. GPS sensors (hardware devices for receiving data) can receive these signals from the satellites and, using their own internal clock, can calculate the amount of time it has taken for the signal to be received. GPS relies on the fact that radio waves travel at the speed of light to calculate distances, and the exact location of the sensor is ﬁ gured by combining the data received from four satellites.

Using the data from these four satellites, GPS is able to give you the latitude, longitude and elevation of your present location, and also your road speed and direction of travel on a route. Given the right conditions, a GPS sensor can identify your geographic position anywhere in the world within a few meters.

How CoPilot Uses GPS

GPS Accuracy

The GPS signal CoPilot receives from the constellation of satellites has a rated accuracy of within 5 - 10 meters. This means that 95% of the time the reported location is within 15 - 30 feet of your exact position. If CoPilot initially places you on the wrong road (this happens only rarely), keep driving and CoPilot will automatically correct itself and ﬁ nd your proper position.

Occasionally, CoPilot’s GPS tracking will be less accurate or fail to work at all because your GPS receiver is unable to receive satellite signals. Heavy foliage, tall buildings, or any other structures obstructing communications will interfere with CoPilot’s ability to track your location. Like your car radio, GPS tracking can also be affected by weather conditions if severe. CoPilot will continue tracking as soon as adequate signals are available. Despite these limitations, you can expect CoPilot to provide you with useable and accurate information most of the time. CoPilot will alert you if accurate information is unavailable.

CoPilot’s personal, portable GPS navigation system gives you the freedom to explore and the conﬁ dence that you’ll never get lost again!

Safety Warning

Always keep your hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road when driving!

Do not use this product in any way that interferes with safe and attentive operation of a vehicle. When used in a vehicle, do not place the GPS receiver, antenna, power supply, or your computer where it may strike the driver or passengers if the vehicle turns sharply or stops abruptly. This product is designed, manufactured, and intended as an aid to planning and navigating routes. The accuracy of the map data, driving directions, and GPS tracking system is insufﬁ cient for this product to be used for automated navigation or in any situ0(er gedabe )re wito wue

CoPilot uses the GPS positional data that it receives from your hardware unit to display your current position on a map as you drive. This is called “tracking”. CoPilot also uses the GPS data it receives to guide you along a planned route if you enter a destination on your Smartphone. CoPilot

guides you with audible prompts and on-screen directions as you drive.

4. Name the selection, then click Next.

Trip

This method of selecting data is by far the most customizable method. It allows you to run a trip and select street-level data speciﬁ c to that trip, thereby avoiding unneeded data and saving valuable memory space.

Once the trip is run, the Data Download Wizard automatically selects circles of data around your origin and destination, and a corridor of data along your route. You can then click Options to adjust the radius of the circles and the width of the corridor.

The Trip Itinerary for each trip you download will be stored on your Smartphone (see Trip Transfer, p. 11). Multiple trips can be downloaded to the Smartphone for later use.

Follow these steps to download Trip data:

1. Click the Trip icon in the Data Download Wizard.

2. Enter at least a start and end place for your trip. In the Cities and Addresses tab, type a City, State or ZIP Code and press <Enter>. Optionally, you can enter an address in the same way. Click the Add Stop button to add this place to your trip.

You may enter one or multiple destinations. Use the buttons to the right of the Itinerary to zoom to a stop on the map, change the order of stops, or delete a stop.

3. To search for a POI, click the Points of Interest tab, enter a City, State or a ZIP Code and click the Find button.

(You can speed up your search by selecting a POI Category and/or Type.) Then highlight a selection on the list, click Select, then Add Stop to add the POI as a stop.

Note: For a more detailed description of trip entry, open CoPilot Help from the desktop application (Help menu > Help Contents and Search).

4. When all your stops have been entered, click Select

Data.

By default a 20 mile (32 kilometer) radius around all stops and a width of 4 miles along the corridor which connects them will be highlighted. Note: CoPilot’s available memory calculations subtract a certain amount from the available memory on your storage card (If you are using one) to account for support ﬁ les.

5. To customize these distances for any trip, click Options and type a distance in the appropriate box.

- 9 -

6. You will return to the Data Selection menu where you can select another data area if you like, using any method. When you ﬁ nish selecting data areas, click Download. Trip itineraries that were created using the Tr ip download method will be transferred along with map data (see p. 11 for details).

Data Download

When you’re ready to execute a download, the Wizard will display a list of Available Area(s) for download on the left side of the window. To designate an area to include, click on it and then click on the right arrow button to move it to the Data Included in This Download list. If you need to move an area off the Included list, click on it and use the left arrow button.

Check Include US Highway Network to download CoPilot’s complete United States Highway Network along with your data. This additional download requires approximately 59 MB of space on your Smartphone. When this network is loaded, major roads, cities, and some points of interest outside your selected data region will be shown on the map and you’ll be able to receive guidance as you drive anywhere in the European Union.

Check Download Favorites to download your Favorites list from the Trip Planner window on your desktop along with map data. These addresses will then be available as Favorites for trip entry on the Smartphone.

RECOMMENDED OPTION: It is recommended that you leave Create QuickStart checked (see below for a description of this feature), but you

may uncheck it if you don’t want the QuickStart copied with your download.

CoPilot QuickStart Application Download

Each time you download data, CoPilot gives you the option to download a complete, ready-to-use “QuickStart” version of CoPilot along with the data. Having the QuickStart version on your mobile device ensures that CoPilot will be available even if you experience technical problems with your Smartphone and need to perform a hard reset. (During a hard reset, all installed applications are deleted from the Smartphone.) The QuickStart

version will automatically install CoPilot after a hard reset, and your map data will already be there!

To delete an area from memory, click on it and click Delete.

Notice that the amount of available map memory and the memory required for all the areas on the Included list is shown beneath the list. NOTE: CoPilot’s available memory calculations subtract a certain amount from your storage card (if you are using one) to account for support ﬁ les.

IMPORTANT: Each data download overwrites the data that is already on your Smartphone. If any data areas are already loaded

on your Smartphone, they will be overwritten by the new download. Therefore, your download must include all areas that you wish to have available on your Smartphone.

To run the QuickStart application on your mobile device after a hard reset, simply turn on your Smartphone. CoPilot will automatically begin installation.

The QuickStart option can be turned on or off in the ﬁ nal step of the download process (see above). By default this option is active and the QuickStart download will be executed each time you download map data.

The QuickStart needs 10 MB of space on your Storage Card. Once the QuickStart has been copied, you can save time the next time you download data by unchecking the Create QuickStart option in the ﬁ nal Data Download Wizard screen before proceeding to download. You will also want to uncheck this option if you do not have enough room on your Storage Card for it.

If the QuickStart is copied onto your Storage Card and you need to remove it, simply delete the folder that contains it. The folder will be named “2577”.

NOTE: CoPilot will need to be activated within 3 days after installation.

POI Download Options

When you download a data region from your desktop PC, you get all roads within that region. Also included are regional points of interest (POI) such as gas stations, hotels, restaurants, visitor attractions, etc.

CoPilot now lets you control the number and types of POI that get downloaded along with map data. You can save space on your Smartphone by eliminating categories of POI that you’re not interested in seeing.

To select which POI categories you want, choose POI Download Options from the Edit menu in the desktop application or, when you ﬁ rst open the Data Download Wizard, click the Options button in the Wizard. Check the categories you wish to select (click the plus sign next to each category to see the included sub-categories).

Click Save Settings to save the set of categories you create. Click

Restore Default to return to CoPilot’s default categories.

Adding OV2 POI Sets

CoPilot supports OV2 POI ﬁ les. You can copy any OV2 ﬁ le into the CoPilot\Save folder on your storage card to get immediate access to the POIs it contains.

EXAMPLE: Copy an OV2 ﬁ le named ‘Speedcams’ to Storage Card\ CoPilot\Save. The next time you do a POI search you will see ‘Speedcams’ as a POI Type in the Custom Category.

Trip Transfer

When you use the Trip download option, CoPilot transfers whole trips to your Smartphone. The trip you create, including its itinerary, is transferred along with the surrounding data corridor, and it becomes the current trip.

The Trip download option creates a .TRP ﬁ le that is placed in the Save directory in the CoPilot installation folder on your Smartphone. Subsequent downloads will add more .TRP ﬁ les to this folder. The number of trips that may be stored is limited only by the available memory on your Smartphone.

- 11 -

Importing Custom Places

CoPilot’s Custom Place Import Wizard enables you to import addresses from your Outlook Contacts database, an Excel ﬁ le, or text ﬁ le. (If you are using another type of database or contact manager, you can export your contacts/ locations to an Excel or text ﬁ le before importing them into CoPilot.) These points are then added to CoPilot’s POI database in a category and type of your choice (the default category is “Custom”). Once in the database, they are displayed on maps as pushpins and included in search results when you search for points of interest on your Smartphone or in the Trip Planner window on your desktop/laptop.

NOTE: CoPilot now allows importing of multiple POIs with the same name (e.g. an entire database of “Starbucks”).

To access the Wizard, choose Import Custom Places from the Tools menu in Planning Mode on the desktop, then follow the step-by-step instructions given by the Wizard.

Steps for Importing:

1. In Planning Mode on your desktop/ laptop, choose Import Custom Places from the Tools menu to open the Import Custom Places Wizard.

2. Choose Import from Microsoft

Outlook or Import from an existing ﬁ le (this can be a .txt or

an Excel ﬁ le). Click Next.

3. In the next Wizard screen, type the path to the ﬁ le you want to import or Browse for it, and use the Category pick list to indicate a POI category for your imported places (by default they are assigned to “Custom”). You can also choose a Type from the pick list. To edit the type name, highlight it on the pick list and click Edit Type Name below. Click Next when ready.

4. In the next screen you’ll see the data from your ﬁ le sorted into columns. If the columns you see in the screen have not sorted the address data correctly, you need to indicate which delimiter CoPilot should recognize when it separates the ﬁ elds in your ﬁ le into columns. Each ﬁ eld — e.g. name, street address, city, state, etc. — needs to be separated by a delimiter such as a tab, semicolon, or comma. If your ﬁ le uses a delimiter other than a comma, tab, or semicolon, click Other and type the delimiter in the box to the right. If the ﬁ rst row of your ﬁ le consists of column headings, you should check Column

headings in ﬁ rst row. Click Next when ready.

5. Now, following the instructions on the screen, click each column heading and match the column headings with your data. To be accepted by CoPilot, each imported place must have at least four ﬁ elds: Name, Address1, City, and State. Click Next when ready.

6. In the next screen, following the instructions, you can assign a name to the set of columns you just deﬁ ned to save you time the next time you import addresses.

To skip this step, uncheck Save

the columns as a new set. Click Finish.

7. When processing is ﬁ nished, the Data Import Status window shows you how many places in your ﬁ le were matched with addresses in the CoPilot database. A plus sign in the Accept column indicates a match. Places that failed to match appear in red and do not have a plus sign.

Editing Custom Places

After custom places have been added to the database, they can be edited at any time. Select Manage Custom Places from the Tools menu, then highlight the custom place you wish to edit, click Edit, and make your changes. Click Apply when ﬁ nished.

NOTE: By default, addresses entered as Custom Places are assigned to the Custom POI category. You can change this assignment at any time by selecting another Category from the drop-down pick list as you edit.

8. To edit a failed or incomplete match, highlight it and click Edit (see Editing Custom Places, next page). POI addresses can also be edited after they are added to the database using the Custom Place Manager.

9. When you are satisﬁ ed with the list of addresses, click Add to add these places to the CoPilot database.

Options below the list let you 1) choose whether to add all addresses

on the list to the database, or just those that were accepted, and 2) determine how CoPilot will handle any address that duplicates one already in the database.
