Two NAV TwoNav Aventura Quick Start Guide [ml]

English

1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing TwoNav Aventura, the dual (for outdoor and in-car) GPS
navigating system that will help you enjoy the best assistance to orientate you in any
type of environment while carrying out any type of activity.

The TwoNav navigation mode can be changed by pressing on the tab on the top of
the Main Menu:

• Off-Road : Outdoor areas for practising open air activities do not usu-

ally have usable information for the automatic calculation of the route, so
cartography is only useful as a visual reference aid. In order to have avail­able assistance for orientation, positional references must be used (way­points, routes and tracks). You can create them yourself or obtain them from
different sources, such as friends, web pages or Internet forums.

• On-road : Road information maps (V-maps from CompeGPS) are

used to automatically calculate the road to be followed in order to reach our
destination. This route will take into account the available streets and will
provide detailed orientation through them by using visual and voice indica­tions.

ENGLISH

2.3 Contextual menus

TwoNav uses Contextual Menus to enter the most adequate functions for each
moment and option in an easy and quick manner.

4

To open the Contextual Menu of any element (track, map, waypoint…), press on it
for one second. You may open contextual menus on the following settings of the user
interface:

• Navigation window (map): Depending on the element on which you open

the Contextual, you may enter different functions.

• Data elds: When opening the Contextual on the data fields (on the data
bar or the data pages) you will be able to modify the available fields, set
an alarm or enter other functions that may change depending on the field
(reset, countdown, etc.).

• Lists: The Contextual Menu may be opened to see the different actions
to carry out on any given element (waypoints, routes, tracks and maps) by
clicking on its name from the data lists.

2.4 Shifting over lists

TwoNav uses a system of lists on the various situations: data (tracks, waypoints,
routes and maps), data fields, contextual menus, etc.

A scroll system has been developed in order to facilitate the shifting through these
lists, which allows for the movement around the different options by dragging the pen
or finger upwards or downwards.

If you execute a brief shift, the last displayed element will become the first on the list.

If you execute a long shift, the list will keep scrolling down and it will stop at the end or
by pressing on the screen.

ENGLISH

If you want to move along the lists in a more accurate way, you may use the side
arrows to achieve a more controlled movement.

2.5 Data lists

By pressing on the DATA key on the main menu, you will be able to manage the avail­able files on your device. This operation is carried out through the waypoints, routes,
tracks and maps lists.

The files to be taken into consideration on this lists will be the ones saved in the
folders ‘TwoNavData/Maps’ (for maps) and ‘TwoNavData/Data’ (tracks, routes and
waypoints).

The general functions of these lists are as follows:

5

• Available elements open: The available elements on the data folder can
be seen on this list. The open elements will be arranged on the top of the

list with a ticked square.

o Press on the name of any element to open it.

o Press on the left square to close it.

• Sub-elements: By briefly clicking on the name of an element (waypoints,
file or route) the waypoints which it contains will be displayed. Press again
on the name of the element to hide its contents.

• Actions on the elements: You can carry out diverse actions on each ele-
ment. When selecting an element (click briefly on it) the bottom keys of the
list will show the most important functions for this element (see properties,
zoom on the element, add waypoints, etc.).

To enter the list of all the functions keep the pressure on the element for a while
Contextual Menu will open.

2.6 Discover

The main menu option “Discover” will allow you to enter into useful tools to explore the
areas you are going to visit:

• Zoom to…: Choose the element (address, POI, favourite, data or coordi-
nates) that you wish to see on the map and a new window will open.

• Simulate: It will allow you to select two spots (present position, by map,
POI, etc.) In order to simulate a navigation from spot A to spot B.

6

• Stop Simulation: It stops the ongoing simulation (both from A-B spots, as
from any track being animated).

• 3D Panorama: This option shows an aerial view of the surroundings. In
order to do it, Mode 3D must be activated.

3 Start up and maintenance

3.1 ‘Turn on’ and ‘Hold’

Keep the ON key pressed for 2 seconds to start the system. Carry out the same opera­tion for turning it off.

When the device is on, you may use the key ‘hold’ to block the device on two levels:

• Keypad block: With one brief press on the ‘HOLD’ key, the keypad and the
screen are blocked, making the use of the device impossible, but leaving
the screen on. Repeat a brief pressure to unblock.

• Complete blocking: By pressing for 2 seconds on the ‘HOLD’ key, the
keypad will become blocked and the screen won’t just be blocked, but also
will be turned off. Consequently, the information will not be visible, but the
battery energy will be saved. Press longer once more to unblock.

3.2 Battery Recharge

The TwoNav Aventura Li-on battery is recharged via the USB port. It is normally fit­ted with 3 power sources:

• PC: When connecting the device to a computer, besides allowing you to
manage the data present in the memory from the PC, the battery is also
charged. The charging speed will be considerably lower to the other two
charging systems (about 12 hours for a complete charge).

• Charger for car lighter: Included in the TwoNav Aventura kit. If it is
charged with the device turned off, it will take from 4 to 5 hours for a com­plete charge. If navigation is being carried out, it will take longer.

• AC/DC charger: Not included in the series. It can be purchased sepa-
rately or use any other USB charger. A 1000mA/h charger will take about 4
or 5 hours for a complete charge.

You can operate normally while the TwoNav is connected to the power source, except
if it is connected to a PC, when the device will only operate as a massive storage unit.

7

ENGLISH

Note: In order to enhance the autonomy of your Aventura, you may purchase the AA
battery accessory with which you can substitute the Li-ion battery by three AA batter­ies.

Important: When unplugging the device from the power source, TwoNav will inform
you of the disconnection. If you do not answer the message within 30 minutes, the
system will turn off in order to avoid accidental discharges (you may deactivate this
function from ‘Configuration > System > Autonomy)

3.3 Bumps and water

TwoNav Aventura is a device prepared to resist the strain of an intensive use during
the practice of outdoor activities and, therefore, its performance must not be affected
by exposure to small bumps or to rain or splashing water.

However, in order to make the most of the system’s performance it is advised, as far
as possible, to prevent the device from suffering serious bumps and that its permanent
exposure to dust or water.

The resistance to water is based on the correct attachment of the rubber covers
that give access to the slots and ports of the device. It is therefore important to check
that these covers are well sealed prior to beginning our activities.

Never soak the device in water, not even when all the covers are well sealed.

To improve the resistance to bumps, you may fit your Aventura with a Plexiglas screen
to cover one of the most fragile spots of the device: the touch screen. You may find this
attachment on the TwoNav web page or by asking your local dealer.

3.4 Autonomy

TwoNav Aventura may operate around 8 consecutive hours with the screen ON with
no need of recharging the battery and up to 30 hours with the screen OFF and record­ing the track.

The screen uses an important part of the energy resources, so turning it off may make
the life of the device longer.

The screen of the device will be turned off by default after 1 minute of inactivity.

You may also turn the screen of manually by a sustained pressure on the ‘HOLD’ key.

From “Main Menu > Configuration > System > Autonomy”, you may deactivate or
modify this time, as well as enter other options that may improve the autonomy of the
device.

8

Note: To enhance the autonomy of your Aventura, you may purchase the AA battery
attachment to substitute the Li-on battery by three AA batteries.

3.5 Connection to PC (storage unit)

When TwoNav Aventura is connected to the PC by means of the USB wire, the Two­Nav application is closed and the device becomes a “storage unit”. Two new storage
units will then be shown on your PC:

• Local disk: inner memory of the device

• Extractable disk: SD card that may be inserted into the device.

This way you will be able to transfer data from the PC to the Aventura and vice versa.
Please note that the folders to save data in the TwoNav Aventura in the memory card
are:

• Maps: TwoNavData\Maps

• Data (Waypoints, routes and tracks): TwoNavData\Data

Important: While connected to the PC, TwoNav cannot be operated. If the device is
connected to another external source (car or wall charger) you will be able to do it.

3.6 Using the electronic compass

TwoNav Aventura is fitted with a digital compass so you have accurate information
available on the directions to follow even if you are stopped.

ENGLISH

To be able to use the information supplied by the compass you must follow two steps:

1. Adjusting the compass: Go to ‘Main Menu > Configuration > Off-road >
Calibrate Compass’. Once inside the adjusting utility, place the device on a
horizontal position and just turn it slowly for a few seconds.

2. Go to ‘Main Menu > Configuration > Off-road > Bearing’ and select ‘Auto­matic’. This way, the information coming from the compass will be consid­ered when you are stopped or driving very slowly (in these cases, the GPS
information is less reliable to determine orientation).

Note: Adjustments must be made outdoors and far from sources of alterations of the
magnetic field, such as cars, buildings or electric lines. For further safety, it is recom­mended to adjust the compass prior to any outings.

3.7 Updating the software

The TwoNav software is continually being improved in order to add new functionalities
and polish possible errors.

Visit regularly the TwoNav (www.twonav.com) and CompeGPS (www.compegps.com)
web pages to be regularly informed about the latest available version for your device
and get to know the steps to follow for installing it.

4 Conguration

4.1 Record the track

You may choose if you want to keep saving your present trip in a track or not.

Go to the ‘Status‘ window and press the ‘record’ key so your movements are added to
the currently recorded track.

By pressing the Pause key, the positions stop being recorded until you press ‘record’
once more.

The track being currently recorded will go first place on the track list and its name will
be the present date.

4.2 Vehicle

“Main menu > Configuration > Vehicle”

Choose your mean of transport in order to adapt factors like the permitted types of
ways, one way streets or expected mean speed.

Icon marking your current position will change its color depending on the vehicle you
choose.

10

4.3 Auto-route

“Main menu > Configuration > On-road > Auto-route”

The ‘On-road’ navigation mode can be adjusted so the automatic calculation of your
routes is done according to your preferences:

• Time/Distance: The first option will calculate the estimated time of

arrival, bearing in mind the speed of each road and will suggest the
navigation which takes shorter. The second option will suggest a navi­gation based on distance, choosing the shortest way, although it may
not be the fastest.

When the option ‘by time’ is activated, a chronometer will be displayed
as a key icon. If a rule is displayed, the shortest route in distance will
be calculated.

• Tolls/Motorways/Unpaved: Select to choose any of these types of

roads.

A tick on the icon means that this type of route won’t be used for the
automatic calculation of the route.

• Re-calculation: Although TwoNav is configured with the most suitable

relation for most cases, you may select the time or distance from the
programmed route before it is considered that you are not following it
and it is recalculated, adapting it to the present position.

4.4 Maps

TwoNav lets you manage a great variety of maps in an easy way.

From the maps list (Main menu > Data> Maps), you will be able to see all the maps
available in the ‘TwoNavData/Maps’ folder for your present position.

If you wish to see the complete list of maps (not only the present position ones), acti-

vate the ‘see all’ key .

You may also get more maps to use with TwoNav in various ways, from just buying
them directly from our web page, to calibrate paper maps with CompeGPS Land.

For further information go to www.compegps.com and www.twonav.com.

*If there is no road map in the TwoNav memory, the On-road mode cannot be acti-

enter them quickly. To manage this list, press the ‘edit’ key.

• History: The recently selected destinations are stored here.

• By map: Select the exact spot and press OK.

• Waypoint: Select a waypoint among the ones loaded or created.

• Route: The chosen route will be activated and it will guide consecutively to

the waypoints it contains.

12

• Track: The reference of the loaded track will be available and its direction
indicated. If you go too far from the track (>50m), the perpendicular direc­tion to the trace of the track will be indicated so you can go back to it.

• Coordinates: Introduce the exact coordinates for your destination.

To stop any type of navigation (On-road or Off-road) running, you must press on the
‘Stop Navigation’ option.

You may enter it from the main menu or by opening the contextual menu on map.

6 Following indications

Once your destination is chosen, TwoNav will assist you until you reach it.

TwoNav offers you two navigation modes to allow you to adapt to each environment
in the best possible way:

On Road : Door to door navigation on the CompeGPS V-maps cartographic
basis, enjoying the characteristic assistance type of the urban navigators. The route
will be automatically calculated through the streets and along the itinerary accurate
visual and aural indications will be given on the manoeuvres to carry out.

Off Road : It can be used on any type of map (topographic, orthophoto, vec-
tored graph) and it is based on the use of previously created references (waypoints,
routes and tracks). The route won’t be calculated automatically and a straight line will
link our present position to our destination.

17

ESPAÑOL

Para abrir el menú contextual de cualquier elemento (track, mapa, waypoint…), man-
tenga la presión sobre él durante un segundo. Puede abrir menús contextuales en
los siguientes entornos de la interfaz de usuario:

• Ventana de navegación (mapa): Dependiendo del elemento sobre el que

abra el Contextual (waypoints, rutas, tracks o mapas) dispondrá de unas u
otras funciones.

• Campos de datos: Al abrir el Contextual sobre los campos (en la barra de

datos o las páginas de datos), podrá modificar los campos disponibles, pro­gramar una alarma o acceder a otras funciones que pueden variar depen­diendo del campo (resetear, cuenta atrás, etc.).

realizar sobre un elemento (waypoint, ruta, track) clicando sobre el nombre
del mismo desde las listas de datos.

2.4 Desplazamiento en listas

TwoNav utiliza un sistema de listas en diferentes situaciones: datos (tracks, way­points, rutas y mapas), selector de campos de datos, menús contextuales, etc.

Se ha desarrollado un sistema de scroll (desplazamiento) para facilitar el desplaza­miento por estas listas, que le permite moverse por las distintas opciones arrastrando
el lápiz o dedo hacia arriba o hacia abajo.

Si realiza un deslazamiento breve, el último elemento visualizable pasará a ser el
primero.

Si realiza un deslazamiento prolongado, empezará un movimiento continuo por la
lista que sólo se detendrá al final de ésta o cuando pulsemos sobre la pantalla.

Si desea desplazarse por las listas de manera más precisa, puede utilizar las flechas
laterales para conseguir un movimiento más controlado.

2.5 Listas de datos

Pulsando sobre el botón ‘Datos’ del menú principal podrá gestionar los ficheros dis­ponibles en su dispositivo. Esta gestión se hace a través de listas de waypoints, rutas,
tracks y mapas.

Los ficheros que se tendrán en consideración en estas listas serán los que tenga
guardados en la carpeta ‘TwoNavData/Maps’ (para mapas) y ‘TwoNavData/Data’
(tracks, rutas y waypoints).

A continuación se describe el funcionamiento general de estas listas:

18

• Elementos disponibles/abiertos: En la lista aparecerán los elementos

disponibles en la carpeta de datos. Los elementos abiertos se situarán en
la parte superior de la lista con su casilla marcada.

o Pulse sobre el nombre de un elemento para abrirlo.

• Subelementos: Realizando un clic breve sobre el nombre de un elemento

(ruta o archivo de waypoints) se mostrarán los waypoints que lo componen.
Vuelva a pulsar sobre el nombre del elemento para esconder su contenido.

• Acciones sobre los elementos: Se pueden realizar diversas acciones

sobre cada elemento. Al seleccionar un elemento (clic simple sobre él) los
botones de la parte inferior de la lista mostrarán las funciones más impor­tantes para ese elemento (ver propiedades, zoom al elemento, añadir way­points, etc.).

Para acceder al listado de todas las funciones pulse prolongadamente sobre el ele­mento y se abrirá su Menú Contextual.

2.6 Descubrir

La opción del menú principal ‘Descubrir’ le permite acceder a herramientas útiles para
explorar las zonas que va a visitar:

• Zoom a…: Elija el elemento (dirección, POI, favorito, datos o coordenada)

que desee visualizar en el mapa y se mostrará en una ventana nueva.

ESPAÑOL

• Simular: Le permite seleccionar dos puntos (posición actual, por dirección,

19

por mapa, POI, etc.) para realizar una simulación de una navegación de
punto A a punto B.

• Parar Simulación: Detiene la simulación en curso (tanto de punto A-B

como la de cualquier track que se esté animando).

• Panorama 3D: Esta opción le permite realizar una vista aérea envolvente.

Para ello deberá tener activado el modo 3D.
