1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing TwoNav, 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.
Having an appliance which offers directional assistance, both on-road and off-road, can prove
invaluable for increasing the safety of these journeys.
Despite this, there is the possibility that, under certain circumstances, the user may become
distracted by misuse of this technology, whereby it may in the end become a hazard to him or
her, and to his or her environment.
This possibility of using TwoNav in any type of vehicle makes it particularly important to
consider a series of rules and regulations for using it so, far from being a source of potential
risks, will contribute to personal safety.
Most of these recommendations are concerned with using the system fitted in vehicles,
although the bases of them should also be taken into account for journeys on foot.
•Fitting the appliance correctly: The appliance should be fitted in a place where it will
not obstruct the vehicle driver’s visibility of the road. It should additionally be secured, to
ensure it cannot fall off easily and hinder driving.
•Do not handle the appliance whilst driving: The route planning should be completed
before setting out. Any change or clarification required must be made with the vehicle
stopped in a safe place, away from traffic (not on the road or kerbs).
•When on the road, you should be guided by the sound signals: The program’s
voice system will warn you of upcoming manoeuvres and of the distance to when you
will have to carry these out. A glance at the visual information may be useful, but you
should resort to this only if it can be done safely (with the vehicle appropriately stopped).
When driving, you should always keep your eyes on the road.
•The front-seat passenger can be a great help: The navigator is normally facing the
driver. If you have a front-seat passenger, we recommend this person be in charge of
handling the appliance, making any clarifications or changes as required.
•Getting it wrong is not a problem: Neither navigators nor people are infallible
machines. In the event an indication cannot be followed and a direction other than the
fixed one is taken, the system will automatically calculate a new route, which will adapt
to the new situation and will take you to your destination just the same.
http://www.CompeGPS.com http://Support.CompeGPS.com 7
•Maps always contain errors: Despite the tremendous updating work done by Tele
Atlas, it is impossible to have 100% accurate information. Recent changes in correct
street directions, new streets or restrictions due to road works are examples of
circumstances that may partially invalidate the route calculation made by TwoNav. It is
very important to be alert to these changes and to adapt to the new situation. As soon
as the program detects that it has not been able to follow the preset route, it will
calculate a new one, which will take you to your destination just the same.
•TwoNav assists you in navigation. Traffic regulations have always preference!
2 Maintenance
2.1 Battery Recharge
The TwoNav Ultra Li-on battery is recharged via the USB port. It is normally fitted with 3 power
sources:
•AC/DC charger: Included in the TwoNav Ultra kit.
•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.
You can operate normally while the TwoNav is connected to the power source, except if it is
connected to a PC.
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 form ‘Configuration >
System > Autonomy)
Warning: Avoid vibrations or rude movements on device while USB port is connected. It may
deform USB port, being reparation out of warranty. Do not re-charge battery while driving a
motorbike or any other vehicle which is causing vibrations.
2.2 Precautions
TwoNav Ultra 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.
Avoid vibrations or rude movements on device while USB port is connected. It may deform USB
port, being reparation out of warranty.
Do not charge the battery during your motorbike trips. USB port would suffer deformation
which is not covered by warranty. See next section to know how to optimize autonomy.
http://www.CompeGPS.com http://Support.CompeGPS.com 8
2.3 Autonomy
TwoNav Ultra may operate around 6 consecutive hours with the screen ON with no need of
recharging the battery and up to 20 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’ button.
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.
2.4 Connection to PC (storage unit)
When TwoNav Ultra is connected to the PC by means of the USB wire, the microSD card
becomes a “storage unit”.
This way you will be able to transfer data from the PC to the Ultra and vice versa. Please note
that the folders to save data in the TwoNav Ultra are:
•Maps: TwoNavData\Maps
•Data (Waypoints, routes and tracks): TwoNavData\Data
Even ‘copy/pasting’ files is possible from Windows explorer, it is highly recommended to use
CompeGPS Land PC software to manage them. CompeGPS Land allows easily creating,
editing and transferring files to TwoNav, becoming a necessary reference to have an advanced
control over your outdoor trips. (+info)
2.5 Using the electronic compass
TwoNav Ultra is fitted with a digital compass so you have accurate information available on the
directions to follow even if you are stopped.
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 > System > Calibrate
Compass’. Once inside the adjusting utility, move device rotating in several directions
place for a few seconds.
2. Go to ‘Main Menu > Configuration > Navigation > 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.
2.6 Updating the software
The TwoNav software is continually being improved in order to add new functionalities and
polish possible errors.
Normally, software updates are for TwoNav, but operating system can also have updates.

3.3.1 On-road/Off-road
TwoNav features two navigation modes to meet the needs of any environment.
Press the corresponding tab on the main menu to activate the most suitable mode for you.
Important: On-road mode will only be available if you have a routable V-map present in maps
folder. Otherwise, On-road tab will be disabled.
For further information, check the section On-road/Off-road selector
3.3.2 Navigate…
TwoNav features three basic ways of activating navigation towards a destination:
•By means of the Navigate button…
•By means of the waypoints, routes and tracks lists
•By means of selection on map
Check the section ‘Select destination’ for further information
3.3.3 Data Lists
By pressing on the data button 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:
http://www.CompeGPS.com http://Support.CompeGPS.com 18
•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.
oPress on the name of any element to open it.
oPress 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 element. When
selecting an element (click briefly on it) the bottom buttons of the list will show the most
important functions for this element (see properties, zoom on the element, add
waypoints, etc.). Next you have a list of the elements you can find:
oProperties : Inside properties you can also find :
Navigate
Zoom to it
oZoom to it : Show that element on map. Once in ‘zoom to it’ window, you
can go to:
Navigation window
Back
oCreate new waypoints file : Then you can create waypoint inside it.
http://www.CompeGPS.com http://Support.CompeGPS.com 19
oCreate new route : Then add waypoints successively to with button
to build up the route.
Note: You can also create routes, waypoints and tracks by opening the context
menu on navigation window.
oCreate new waypoint : Several ways to choose position for new waypoint
will be presented (current position, By map, copying other waypoint...).
Note: You can also create waypoints from context menu on navigation window
and from the tool bar.
oShow only maps from current area :
oName filter : Hides list elements which do not contain the entered
combination of characters, so you can easily find elements in a long list.
To enter the list of all the functions keep the pressure on the element for a while context menu
will open.
To get further knowledge of the elements included in the Data section, check the section
Waypoints, Routes, Tracks and Maps.
3.3.3.1 Name filter
Elements of a list can be filtered to only show files which contain a combination of characters.
Press button to enter a character combination to filter.
If a waypoints file is opened when filter is applied, its content will also be filtered. This means
that waypoints which don’t contain that character combination will not be shown until filter is
disabled.
This is useful if you are searching for a concrete waypoint inside a waypoints file or route. Just
open the waypoints file and activate ‘name filter’.
After activating, filter can be easily disabled:
•If an element is opened, filter will be disabled.
•When leaving list page, filter will be disabled, so full list will be shown next time list is
visited.
•If button is pressed but no character is introduced, full list will be shown.
3.3.4 Discover
From the option ‘Discover’ on the main menu, you may enter useful tools in order to explore the
areas you are going to visit:

•Zoom to...: Choose the element (address, POI, favourite, data or coordinates) that you
wish to see on the map and it will be displayed on a new window.
•Geocaching: This section centralizes geocaching features, allowing to set a geocache
as destination, see its information and generate field notes.
•Simulate: You may select two spots (present position, by address, by map, POI, etc.) to
execute a simulation of navigation from spot Ato spot B.
•Stop simulation: It stops the ongoing simulation.
•3D Panorama: By using this option you may get an aerial view of the surroundings. In
order to do it, 3D mode must be activated.
•Data pages (+info)
3.3.5 Status
The ‘Status’ allows you to know the general status of the TwoNav by displaying fields such as
battery level, reception and position of satellites, luminosity of the screen, sound volume or the
recording of a track.
There are two ways of entering the ‘Status’ page:
•From ‘Main Menu > Status’
•From the map, with the icons located on the bottom left
Once in the ‘Status’ page, you may enter to set the parameters it contains by pressing briefly on
the percentage bar of each element. You will then enter the following items:
Satellites status: enter to see the number of satellites available, their distribution orbiting
over the vault and the coverage they reach.
To disconnect the GPS press on the button. If the GPS is disconnected, TwoNav will not
receive any position signal and many of the options will stop working properly.
