2.7 How your navigation system works
MobileNavigator The days of searching through thick folding maps are gone. Now
your navigation software
MobileNavigator|6 can guide you to
your destination quickly and reliably - without leafing through
maps.
GPS operation The American military developed the Global Positioning System
(GPS) in the 70s to be used as a guided weapons system.
GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth and,
in doing so, are constantly transmitting their position and their
time. The GPS receiver receives this data and calculates its own
geographical position from the various position and time
information broadcast by the various satellites.
For a sufficient precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the
data from at least three satellites. If you have the data from 4 or
more satellites the altitude above sea level can also be
ascertained. The positioning is precise up to 3 metres.
Navigating with GPS If
MobileNavigator|6 has determined your position, this
position can be used as a starting point for a route calculation.
The map material on the server of the NAVIGON AG includes the
geographical coordinates of all digitally recorded points of
interest, streets and places. From this the server can calculate a
route from a starting point to a destination.
The calculation of the current position and its representation on
the map takes place once every second. So you can see where
you are on the map.
2.8 Important safety information
Note It is in your own interest to read the following safety information
and warnings carefully before you start up your navigation
system.
User's Manual MobileNavigator|6
- 14 - Important safety information
2.8.1 Navigation safety information
Use the navigation system at your own risk.
Attention: Do not operate the navigation system whilst you are
driving – this could cause an accident!
Attention: Do not look at the display unless it is absolutely safe
to do so!
Attention: The rules of the road and traffic signs must be
obeyed prior to following the instructions of the navigation
system.
Attention: Do not follow the instructions of the navigation
system unless the circumstances and the street traffic regulations
allow you to do so! The navigation system will guide you to your
destination even if you have to go off course from your calculated
route.
Note: If you have not understood the speech instructions or are
unsure what you should do at the next crossroads, you can use
the map or arrow view to orientate quickly.
2.8.2 GPS receiver safety information
Attention: After installation, check all the safety-relevant
facilities in the vehicle.
Attention: Attach the GPS receiver in such a way that you can
still drive safely.
2.8.3 Safety information for a switch-on in the vehicle
Attention: Make sure you do not attach the cradle for the mobile
telephone or for the GPS receiver in the functioning area of the
airbag.
Attention: When installing the cradle, ensure that it does not
represent a risk in the event of an accident.
