Getting Started - Hardware Getting Started - Get Connected (For complete instructions, see the GPS Receiver Guide that came with the product, or tap Tutorial in the Welcome screen on your Pocket PC.) In order to successfully transfer data from your desktop to your Pocket PC, you must have Microsoft ActiveSync 3.1 (or later) installed. This software is necessary to connect the two machines and is provided by your Pocket PC manufacturer.
Uninstalling a Previous Version Installing CoPilot If you have been using an earlier version of Pocket CoPilot, you must uninstall the application and its data before installing CoPilot. If you’re uninstalling CoPilot from a Pocket device and installing the same version on another device, you must deactivate the software on the first device before installing it again — see p. 6. NOTE: You must uninstall any previous version of CoPilot from your desktop/laptop and Pocket PC before proceeding (see above).
8. As the desktop installation proceeds, you will be given the choice to install the CoPilot map data to your hard drive. This is the recommended option and requires 700 MB of available space. If you choose None, you will need to insert the CoPilot Data Disc each time you download data to your Pocket PC or use CoPilot for trip planning on your desktop. 4.
Adding a Data Region Region Selection If you have purchased an additional data region after your initial purchase of CoPilot, you will need to modify the original (“Base”) installation and activate the new region. If you purchased an additional data region, when downloading map data to your Pocket PC you will need to make sure the proper region is active. To do this, on your desktop in Planning mode click the Map menu > Region > and check the desired region.
Deactivation and Licence Update Software Activation The CoPilot desktop software contains street-level maps for all of Europe, and CoPilot is offered with different licences that allow you to use some or all NOTE: CoPilot won’t open on your Pocket PC unless map data has previously been downloaded from CoPilot on the desktop. To launch CoPilot, first turn on your Pocket PC, attach the GPS receiver, and insert your QuickStart card (if provided).
Data Download to Your Pocket PC 3. To download to a Storage Card through a Card Reader: (In this example, again all options are available.) Pick the drive letter associated with your Storage Card Reader, then click Next to go to the Data Selection window. See CoPilot QuickStart below for a description of software included in downloads. See p. 12 for Options. NOTE: You can also download to a Storage Card through a PCMCIA adapter.
Data Download Map Area - This method of selecting data allows you to choose an area of data by drawing a box on the Data Download Wizard's map screen. In the Wizard, you enter a city name near which you would like to select data, then click Next. The map will zoom to that location. Then you create a box around the desired area by clicking and dragging your mouse across the map. The street-level data within that box will be selected.
Data Download Step 3: Select Your Data Use any of the three methods covered on the following pages (City Radius, Map Area, or Trip) to select one or more regions and then download your data. 4. Name the selection, then click Next. City Radius 1. Click the City Radius icon. 5. You will return to the Data Selection menu where you can select another data area if you like, using any method.
Map Area 1. Click the Map Area icon. 4. Name the selection, then click Next. 5. You will return to the Data Selection menu where you can select another data area if you like, using any method. When you are finished selecting data areas, click the Download icon to go to the final screen where you can build your download. 2. Enter a City, Country or Postal Code (address optional) within the area that you would like to download. Click Next. 3.
Trip 3a. Highlight a selection, click Select, then Add Stop. When all your stops have been entered, click Select Data. 1. Click the Trip icon. 4. By default a 20 mile radius around all stops and a width of 4 miles along the corridor which connects them will be highlighted. Note: CoPilot’s available memory calculations subtract 15 MB from the available memory on your storage card (If you are using one) to account for support files. 2. You now have three options for entering stops on your trip.
Data Download POI Download Options Step 4: Download the Data When you download a data region, you’ll get all roads within that region (but not roads outside the region). Also included with each download are regional points of interest (POI) such as gas stations, hotels, restaurants, visitor attractions, etc. When you’re ready to execute a download, the Wizard will display a list of Available Area(s) for download on the left side of the window.
Importing Custom Places CoPilot’s Custom Place Import Wizard enables you to import addresses from your Outlook Contacts database, an Excel file, or text file. (If you are using another type of database or contact manager, you can export your contacts/ locations to an Excel or text file before importing them into CoPilot.) These points are then added to CoPilot’s POI database in a category and type of your choice (the default category is “Custom”).
Editing Custom Places in the Database After custom places have been added to the database, they can be edited at any time. Select Manage Custom Places from the Tools menu, then highlight the custom place you wish to edit, click Edit, and make your changes. Click Apply when finished. NOTE: By default, addresses entered as Custom Places are assigned to the Custom POI category. You can change this assignment at any time by selecting another Category from the drop-down pick list as you edit. 7.
