Ready to navigate
Now that the installation is complete and iGO is
running, you are ready to start using it. Without a
GPS it can be used as a digital map (e.g. to search for
addresses or for POI, to browse the map or use it as
an off-line reference for navigation), but with the
addition of a GPS device (that is able to
communicate with your PDA) it can be turned into
the ultimate navigation system.
The program offers several custom settings for your
comfort described in detail in the User Manual
located in the Manual folder of the SD Card.
However the factory settings let you start using iGO
with its full functionality and comfort.
The first steps if you have no GPS:
Tap the MAP button on the main screen to start
using the program as a map, searching for Points of
Interest, or looking for addresses.
The screen is set to give you the maximum map size
possible.You can move the map in each direction by
simply dragging it.You can also drag and stretch the
scale at the bottom to set the zoom level. Use the
PDA cursor buttons to turn and scale the map. Tap
any map location to have the name of the street
displayed together with the house number and the
list of the nearest POI.You can mark this point with
a pin or save it as POI. In addition various other
options are available in the different menus
accessible from the corners of the screen.
Note: You can find a comprehensive description of the Map screen
and its controls in the iGO User Manual.

7.
The first steps if you have a GPS:
Make sure your GPS has already been recognised by
the handheld computer (e.g. a Bluetooth GPS device
needs to be searched for, connected and paired using
the built-in Bluetooth manager application of the
PDA). Now you are ready to set up the connection
to iGO.
_______When iGO is first started, a black satellite
_______dish with a red exclamation mark is
_______displayed at the bottom left corner. This
shows that there is no GPS connection.
Tap this icon to bring up the GPS Data screen where
you have two options:
•_Automatic GPS detection
•_Manual GPS configuration
Automatic GPS detection
The easy way to connect your GPS is launching
Detect in the bottom right corner.
The program will check each available
communication port with all possible port speeds
and communication protocols to automatically
detect your GPS.This may take one or two minutes.
The successful connection is confirmed by iGO, the
communication between your GPS and your PDA is
indicated by a blinking green light on the left.

8.
Unless you are inside a building or under heavy
foliage, shortly after that the satellite positions and
reception strength bars should appear in the upper
section of the screen, and when the GPS device finds
its position, the exact location coordinates together
with date, time, accuracy, elevation and speed
information become available in the lower part of
the screen.
Your GPS is now set up and next time you run iGO,
it will automatically connect to it using the same
settings. Now you can return to the main screen by
tapping the arrow in the top left corner.The satellite
dish in the bottom left corner is now white (if you
have a GPS fix) or red (if you are inside a building),
and the exclamation mark has disappeared.
Manual GPS configuration
If you know where and how the GPS is connected,
you may select Config. instead of Detect.
In the next screen you need to set the
communication protocol (NMEA or SIRF), the
communication port (e.g. COM1, COM4) and the
communication speed in Bauds (4800, 9600, 19200,
38400 or 57600).

9.
Tap OK to return to the GPS Data screen having
the GPS receiver connected with your settings, or
tap the arrow in the top left corner to cancel the
operation leaving the factory settings untouched.
If you have selected OK and your settings were
correct the result will be the same as with the
Detect function.The green light on the left will start
blinking immediately, and after a short wait satellite
positions, signal strength bars, actual coordinates,
date, time, accuracy, elevation and speed will be
displayed.
Now you can return to
the main screen by
tapping the arrow in the
top left corner. The
satellite dish in the
bottom left corner is
now white (if you have a
GPS fix) or red (if you
are inside a building), and
the exclamation mark
has disappeared.

10.
Out on the road
The first steps of the GPS aided navigation are also
very easy.
If you have no exact destination to reach or you just
want to try iGO cruising around for a while, tapping
COCKPIT in the main screen will take you to the
driving screen where the automatically rotated 3D
map will instantly put you on the virtual road.
As you start driving you will see how the blue arrow
(yellow at night) keeps showing your exact location
and heading on the map. At the lower part of the
screen some important travel data is also shown
(e.g. the street you are driving on and your current
speed).
If you already have a destination to reach, choose
FIND & GO instead of COCKPIT and enter the
Find section of iGO.
Here you can choose
your destination from
the built-in data of the
map (city names, exact
addresses, Points of
Interest) so far, but later
also from the previous
search results, your own
POI database, and your
favourite destinations
(originally called Home
and Work).

11.
As soon as you pick any location in Find, iGO will
switch to the Cockpit screen and navigation begins.
Just listen to the voice and follow the instructions.
Now you are using iGO for navigation, its main
function. This was the aim of this short manual. To
explore the full functionality and extra features of
iGO we strongly encourage you to read the full iGO
User Manual available in the Manual folder of the
iGO SD card.
