Introduction to Your NavMate Software
NavMate so tware provides turn-by-turn visual and voice assistance to direct you to your selected
destination. The so tware quickly calculates step-by-step directions to any destination available
on the included navigation map.
The NavMate so tware uses Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites, and a digital roadway
map database to calculate and display travel directions. The system's GPS antenna receives
signals rom a constellation o 24 satellites orbiting the earth and uses the strongest o signals, to
determine your position to within meters.
Vehicle Position
The NavMate so tware's computer considers vehicle speed and heading changes, together with
longitude and latitude in ormation, to accurately determine vehicle heading and position on a
digital map.
Signals rom GPS satellites are used to determine the vehicle location. Three (good) or our
(best) satellites must be received to accurately determine location. The GPS reception status is
indicated by the GPS symbol on the map.
Map and Information Database
The map database used by your NavMate so tware was created using high-resolution aerial and
land based data collection.
Car navigation maps are requently updated. While the database was judged to be as accurate as
possible at the time o its release, a map database can never be 100% accurate. Road
in ormation that is maintained in the map databases, such as turn restrictions or road names may
change over time.
