The upper right corner displays the
GPS satellite signal

QuickSpell

Another way the Magellan
RoadMate makes entering an
address easy is through the use of
Smart City Search. The Magellan
RoadMate receiver uses your
location as well as cities you've
created routes to before to try to
figure out the city you are looking
for. As you enter characters, the
'computed' city is displayed at the
top of the screen.
Your Magellan RoadMate receiver
uses a feature known as
QuickSpel1 for entering cities and
streets whenever possible.
QuickSpel1 displays only those
keys that could be used to enter a
city
or address that is in the
receiver's memory. For example,
in the screen shown here for street
entry, only the letters that spell a
street
are displayed. This greatly
reduces the chance for errors as
well as to speed up the address
entry process.

As more letters are entered, the
keyboard active characters
change
indicating which characters can be
used to spell the city or street.
Here only the A, D, I, L, or 0could
be used to enter astreet for the city
chosen.
When entering an address only
those characters that
can be used to
spell the city
or street are shown as
active. Note that here there are no
streets for the city chosen that
begin with Q,
X, or Z and are grayed
out.
This speeds
up entering an address greatly and avoids misspelling the word
you are trying to enter. Tapping on the checkmark will bring up alist of the
cities
or streets that begin with the letters you've entered. When the
available cities
or streets is short, the receiver will automatically switch to
the list, displaying those items that begin with the letters you've entered.
In this example, a user in San Dimas
has entered "SAN F" and the receiver
has chosen "SAN FERNANDO, CAli as
the probable city. Had the user been
in Oakland, CA, the receiver would be
displaying SAN FRANCISCO, CA.
If you tap on the city at the top of the display or on the green checkmark, it
IS selected as your destination city and you are then required to enter the
street.
Tap on LIST when the button is active to bring up the list of cities
beginning with the characters you've entered. (Note that if the number of
cities that begin with the characters you've entered
is short, the list is
automatically displayed.
Select from English, Spanish or French
Canadian.
If the touchscreen hasn't been accessed
or the current position hasn't changed for
a defined period of time, the Magellan
RoadMate receiver can be set to power
off. Use the Auto Power setting to define
the period of time desired.
Select how time is displayed (24 hour or

The Settings screen (2) has other useful functions in
customizing your Magellan RoadMate receiver. After you
have used your receiver for awhile you may want to come
back to this screen and select how the information is
displayed on the Map screen, sound levels and output,
which warnings are announced, what type of vehicle you
are using, etc.
Backup and Restore options are also available on the
Settings screen to provide a means of saving and
retrieving address information.

Setting Home Address Routing to an Address
On the final screen [8] you can set
options for the route
as to how the route
will
be computed (fastest time [default],
shortest distance, or most

freeways). Before starting the route, tap
"Options" and select the routing method
desired.
This example shows how to route to
an

Use the Magellan RoadMate receiver to
quickly return to your home address
no
matter how lost you thought you were.
When
you first install your Magellan
RoadMate receiver
you should set your
home address
on the OneTouch menu so it
is there whenever you need it. You have
the option of entering your home address
or, if you are in your vehicle and the
Magellan RoadMate receiver
is computing
aposition fix,
you can assign your current
location
as your home. This uses latitude/
longitude coordinates to assign your home
position.
After following these steps and tapping
the green checkmark, the address
is saved
and designated as your Home address.
Next time
you access the Home icon you
can set aroute to your home.
On some occasions you may find that you
cannot enter the name of the street you
desire. This is due to the street not being
in the receiver's memory. Most likely this
is anew street and wasn't included at the
time of production. If this occurs you may
want to visit the Magellan
web site
(www.magellangps.com) and check for a
map update.
In the meanwhile, you can
set your current location
[3] as your home.
Map updates usually come out yearly and
can
be purchased directly from the
Magellan
web site.
