The screen shows a sample message warning the driver against a road
point in the "Dangerous place" category. The system generates a sound
message and indicates the distance to the point. The point is displayed in a
frame, and the map scale is adjusted to make the point clearly visible.
User warning sounds
The user can customise warning sounds for the given POI category. To do
this, copy your .WAV file (preferably 22 kHz/8 bit/mono) with a name
identical to the name of the POI category to the "Voices" folder in the
AutoMapa installation directory.
2.11 Navigation
Navigation is an AutoMapa operating mode, in which the system indicates
the user's position on the map (if GPS is on) and the mapped route. In the
navigation mode, AutoMapa guides the user to the point of destination by
displaying the mapped route and the vehicle's position on the map, and
displays the pilot panel, which notifies the user about the upcoming
manoeuvres, accompanied by voice messages.
There are two ways of starting navigation:
• by selecting the point of destination with the use of the "Go to/Search" option: the system maps the route,
displays the entire route on the screen, generates a voice message on the length of the route and the time
required to reach the destination, and activates navigation after a few seconds, or
• by mapping the route with START and END points, activating GPS or navigation (if GPS is already on) in the
"GPS" menu.
2.11.1 Mapping the route
To map the route, the user has to define at least two points –
the beginning and the end of the route. They can be set on
the map or with the use of the "Go to/Search" menu option,
by selecting the START or END option in the context menu.
The system will ask the user whether the route should be
mapped and will do it after receiving an affirmative answer.
If the user chooses the "Go to" option in the context menu
for any point on the map or another object, the route is
mapped between the user's present position and the selected
point, and navigation is activated automatically. The course
of the mapped route can be modified with the use of
"THROUGH" points (which can also be set in the context
menu). "THROUGH" points force the route to intersect a
given location.
The type of the THROUGH point can be selected:
• THROUGH area - and Intelligent THROUGH Point is
created. The location of this point is not detailed
upon route mapping, but only adjusted to the course of the route. The point is used for specifying the initial
