Operation Manual
2.11.3 "Your menu" pop-up menu in navigation mode
Similarly to the show position mode, by touching the screen
during navigation, the user will open the "Your menu" pop-up
window. It differs from the main menu in the following
respects:
• Add to POI – by clicking this option, you can add your
current location to the list of points of interest - the
GPS location or the point to its left or right.
• Add to Favourites – as above; adds the selected
point to Favourites.
• Night mode - Enables/disables the night mode on
software.
• On-board computer - allows the user to open the
screen of the software on-board computer.
• Detour – enables a detour around a section of the
route over specified distance.
2.12 Block roads
Road sections on the map can be freely blocked and they will
be omitted in the route mapping algorithm. The selected
sections will be regarded as impassable and will be avoided.
Road sections can be blocked over a specific period of time by
indicating the beginning and end dates.
Road sections with a traffic ban can also be unblocked for the
route: the unblocked road section will be used in navigation.
The sections which the user unblocked are shown on the map
in a different colour.
To block a segment (option unavailable in the simplified
mode), open the context menu in the given road segment
(refer to the section "Context menu") and select the "Block
section" option. The system will ask whether an expiry date
should be assigned to the blocked section. If the answer is
"yes", indicate the date. Follow the same steps to unblock a
road section which is marked as impassable on the map by
using the "Unblock section" option. Then the user can enter
the beginning and/or ending date of the blocks.
The section is usually blocked between the two closest crossroads. Of course, there is the possibility of blocking only one
traffic direction in case of a multilane road.
A section is usually blocked between two nearest junctions. The user can obviously block a one-way traffic lane in a multi-
lane road.
Software also enables the user to block entire areas. Similarly to the section blocking procedure, select the "Block area"
option from the context menu. The system will go into map display mode. By marking a rectangular area on the map, the
user chooses the blocked area where all sections will be blocked (in line with the principle of blocking sections from
junction to junction). A blocked area may be unblocked by choosing the "Unblock area" option from the context menu.
Follow the same steps (without being inquired about the expiry date) to unblock a previously blocked section ("Unblock
section"). The expiry date can also be modified ("Section block parameters").
Block roads 2
Blocked sections can also be handled with the use of the
"Blocked sections" option in the "Route" menu. The list of all
blocked sections is displayed: blocked sections are marked with
a red circle (traffic ban), and unblocked sections – with a grey
circle. This option enables the user to: view the blocked section
on the map, unblock the section or modify its beginning and/or
expiry date, remove all blocked sections. Blocked sections can
be saved to file, read in, added from a file or imported from
previous system versions.
The same procedure can be used to view blocked areas. A list of
blocked areas will be displayed by tapping on the "Areas"
button.
Blocked areas are shown in the screens above.
