1 Warnings and safety information Touch & Go Navigator is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your selected destination. It will determine your exact location with the help of an attached GPS device. The position information obtained from the GPS receiver will not be transmitted anywhere, so others will not be able to track you by the help of this program. If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate Touch & Go Navigator before beginning your journey.
2 General information Touch & Go Navigator is a navigation system optimised for in-car use. It provides door-to-door navigation for both single and multi-point routes using adaptable route parameters. Touch & Go Navigator is capable of planning routes throughout the whole map region installed on the memory card. Unlike some other products, Touch & Go Navigator does not require that you change maps or switch to a poorly detailed general map to navigate between map segments or countries.
3 Operating Touch & Go Navigator (Controls) Touch & Go Navigator is designed for easy operation. All controls are operable by fingertips. Wherever possible, pushbuttons and lists are provided to make accessing functions or changing settings as easy as possible. 3.1 Hardware buttons Hardware buttons are mostly used on map screens to zoom, tilt and rotate the map, or to open other screens. In addition you can use the direction buttons and Enter on list screens to make your selection.
3.1.1 Tilt up and down This function modifies the vertical view angle of the map in 3D mode. Touch & Go Navigator offers a wide range of view angles starting from a top down view (a seamlessly integrated 2D view) down to a flat view that lets you see far ahead.
Tip: Use this button any time during your journey if you need the distance and type of the next route event. Note: In order to receive voice instructions, sound should not be muted (4.5.11), voice guidance must be enabled (5.3.2), and a route must be active. Note: If you have disabled Smart Zoom by using the functions above or moved the map during navigation (i.e.
3.2.2 List selectors When the values in the list need to be named, only the current value is shown (sometimes together with a short description) in a horizontal stripe with arrows at both ends. The arrows are buttons. Tap to move left in the list or tap to move right. You need not confirm your selection. As soon as you leave the screen, the selected value becomes effective. 3.2.
3.2.5 Special switches Some switches behave differently. Instead of being dark when not selected, the light turns red and the lamp becomes crossed out ( ) to emphasize the prohibition of use. Furthermore the switches used for the road types (to be included or avoided when planning a route) in the Route Parameters screen (5.4.4) cannot be changed for some vehicle types. When such a vehicle is selected, not only the lamp but also the whole line becomes inactive and dark.
3.2.7.1 ABC-type keyboards These keyboards contain only letters (Latin, Hebraic, Greek or Cyrillic). If you wish to enter numbers, you need to tap the Keys ( keyboard. Use Backspace ( mistake, tap Space ( the text. ) button to switch to the numeric ) to delete the last letter you have entered if you have made a ) to enter more words, and hit Done ( ) to finish entering This type of keyboard has large, finger-friendly buttons.
3.2.7.3 The numeric keyboard The numeric keyboard only contains numbers, on huge buttons. The special keys you find on the other keyboards (except Space) are available here as well. Although QWERTY-type keyboards also contain number keys, when entering a house number, the program offers the more convenient numeric keypad.
4 Discovering the program through the screens The best way to discover Touch & Go Navigator is to explore each screen in detail, and to find out how to move from one to another. Read this chapter for a guided tour. Touch & Go Navigator starts by displaying the Main menu. This is the root of the screen hierarchy, but you only need to return here in a few cases. Many of the screens are also accessible from each other to reduce the number of actions needed to initiate a function or change a setting. 4.
** Same as removing the SD card 4.2 About screen Tap About on the Main menu screen to open this screen. The About screen is not used in no rmal navigation. It is there to inform you about the map licenses you have, the creators of Touch & Go Navigator and the legal aspects of using the program. 4.3 GPS Data screen Tap the small satellite dish icon in the Main menu to open this screen.
Additional pieces of information on this screen are: current position latitude/longitude format, elevation, speed, date, time and calculated accuracy. in Note: Accuracy can be affected by several factors the GPS cannot take into account. Use this accuracy information only as estimation. There are two icons on the left to show the status of the GPS connection and the quality of reception. 4.3.2 GPS connection indicator In the middle to the left there is a lamp similar to the ones used for switches.
• - green means 3D reception. The GPS receiver has enough satellites to calculate altitude. Position is generally correct (yet it can still be inaccurate due to different environmental factors). Touch & Go Navigator is ready for navigation. 4.3.4 Time synchronization In the top right corner of the screen you have another button that leads to a new screen where you can synchronize the clock of your PND to the very accurate time provided by the connected GPS.
Navigator provides much more than regular paper maps can. The look and the contents can be changed. 4.4.1 2D and 3D map views Besides the classical top down view of the map (called 2D mode), you have the possibility to tilt the map to have a perspective view (3D mode) that gives a view similar to that seen through the windscreen with the possibility to see far ahead. It is easy to change between 2D and 3D modes. You have two options. You can use hardware buttons (3.1.
junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to flat in order to let you see the road in front of you. 4.4.3 Daylight and night colour schemes The different colour schemes let you adjust Touch & Go Navigator to the brightness of the environment. Use the daylight and night colour schemes accordingly.
4.4.4 Streets and roads The similarity of Touch & Go Navigator to paper roadmaps is also convenient when it comes to streets, the most important elements of the map concerning navigation. Touch & Go Navigator uses similar colour codes to those you are accustomed to, and the width of the streets also refers to their importance, so it will not be difficult to tell a highway from a small street. Streets and roads have names or numbers for identification. Of course, this information can be displayed on the map.
The arrow is sized and vertically rotated with the zoom and tilt levels to always look realistic. Touch & Go Navigator has a built-in Lock-on-Road feature that always puts the position arrow on the road, on the axis of the street in case of one-way streets, or on the side of the road where you drive (e.g. on the right in Germany and on the left in the U.K.) on two-way roads. The location received from the GPS receiver is shown as a blue dot on the map.
The colour of the pin is automatically selected by Touch & Go Navigator. Different colours help you identify a pin in the History list (6.3.2) later. There they are shown together with their address and GPS coordinates. Tip: A quick way to tell the coordinates of a location you found on the map is to pin it, and then look for the coordinates in the History list (6.3.2). This way you also save the coordinates with the pin for later reference.
4.4.10 Elements of the Active Route Touch & Go Navigator uses a multi-destination routing system in which you have a start point (your current location if GPS position is available), a destination, the line of the active leg of the route, and optionally via points and inactive legs. They are all shown on the map. 4.4.10.1 The start point, via points and the destination These points are represented by flags. 4.4.10.
4.5 Screens with map Having explained the contents of the map, the description of the other parts of the map screens follows. There are two map screens: the Map screen and the Cockpit screen. The way they show the map is the same but their look and controls are optimised for different purposes. The Map screen is to be used mainly without a GPS, to browse the map, create user POI items, or to plan your route based on map points. The Map screen is designed to give you the maximum map area.

As already described in 3.1.2, zoom will change the scale of the map. Zoom out shows a larger part of the map, while Zoom in shows a smaller part of the map in more detail. The automatic Smart Zoom function will do the necessary zooming for you when navigating (zooms out if the next turn is at a distance to let you see far ahead and zooms in when approaching a turn to give you a better view of the upcoming manoeuvre).
Normally Touch & Go Navigator positions the map to keep the GPS position visible somewhere on the map (when North-up orientation is selected), or always at the bottom centre of the map (when Track-up orientation is selected). If you manually move the map, it will freeze the map in the new position. To return to the GPS position, use this Lock button. Rotating the map in any direction will only freeze the orientation of the map, but it keeps on moving to keep the GPS position visible.
4.5.7 Menu (No. 9) This button opens the Menu with the Find engine, the Quick menu, the Route menu and the exit button that takes you to the Main menu screen. The Menu will be described in detail later in 4.7. 4.5.8 Map orientation and Overview (No. 10) You can view the map screens in three different presentation modes. This switch will cycle through them in the following order. The usual map orientation for navigation is Track-up.
4.5.9 GPS position quality (No. 11) Similarly to the icon found on the GPS Data screen (4.3.3), the map screens also inform you about the GPS signal. They can show the same four values: • The black satellite dish with the red exclamation mark shows there is no connection with the GPS receiver. GPS navigation is not possible. • Red shows there is a connection, but the signal is too weak to give a position. GPS navigation is not possible. • Black shows there is a GPS position, and navigation is possible.
Tap again to re-enable sounds. Note: Sound can be muted in Sound settings (5.3), too. There you have a Master switch that works together with the switch described above. There is also a Master slider on that screen. That you can use to fully turn down the volume of the device. Setting the volume low is different from muting, therefore it will not show up on the mute indicator. 4.5.12 Track Log recording/playback indicator (No.
Tip: If you want to see the map around the Cursor, close the Cursor menu and reopen it. When this menu is opened manually, the map is always moved to have the cursor in the centre. The content of the Cursor menu depends on the screen (Map or Cockpit) and it is slightly different if there is an active route already planned. You have the following options: • Start: use the Cursor as the departure point for your route. This menu point is available only in Map mode and when there is no active route.
• Add POI: opens the new POI capture window to let you add the selected map point to the list of your user points. This menu point is only available on the Map screen and if there are no POIs near the cursor (i.e. only the address is shown in the Popup Info window). • POI: opens the list of POIs near the selected point. These are the POIs shown in the Popup Info window. If you want to add a new POI at the cursor, you can do so by tapping New in the bottom left corner.
4.5.16 Distance to next turn (No. 18) This field shows the distance to go before reaching the next route event (turn, roundabout, exit, etc.) This field is only displayed when navigating a route. 4.5.17 Next street / Next settlement (No. 19) This field shows the road or street that comes next in the route itinerary. If you are not yet in the settlement where this next street is, Touch & Go Navigator will display the name of the settlement instead of the name of the road or street.
4.6.1 Route data displayed (for destination and via points) In the top section of the screen you see information about the current route. These fields are continuously updated while you keep this screen open. When you open the screen, all fields contain information on reaching your final destination. Tap any of the fields to see data on the via points starting from the first one through the final destination again. 4.6.1.
4.6.1.4 Time Left This is an estimated value that can also be displayed in one of the Route data fields on the Cockpit screen as ‘Time to destination’. It shows the time needed to reach the final destination of the route based on information available for the remaining segments of the route. The calculation cannot take into account traffic jams and other possible delays. If via points exist, tap and tap again any of the fields to see the time needed to reach the first, second, etc. via point. 4.6.1.
• - This icon shows that toll roads are included in the recommended route. • • - This icon shows that you need to board a ferry along the recommended route. - This icon shows that you need to pay for the ferry. • - This icon is displayed when Touch & Go Navigator could not plan a route with all your road type preferences respected. Sometimes it is impossible to find a suitable route near the start or the destination.
4.6.4 Parameters This button opens the Route parameter settings screen (5.4) otherwise opened from the Route menu (4.7.3). 4.7 Menu The Menu button can be found in the top right corner of the portrait and square map screens and in the bottom left corner of the landscape map screens. Tapping this button brings up a menu that allows you to access some of the most frequently used functions of Touch & Go Navigator. 4.7.1 Find tab The first page of the Menu is Find.
Note: When you reach 2D view by tilting the map, Smart Zoom will tilt the map as you press the Lock button or it disappears after the timeout (set in Advanced settings) expires. Use the 3D Map toggle to permanently switch to 2D view. 4.7.2.2 Zoom & Tilt When the green light is on, additional transparent buttons (4.5.2 and 4.5.3) appear on the left side of the map screens for zooming and tilting without the use of hardware buttons. 4.7.2.
If you highlight any of the POI groups by tapping them, the button in the bottom left corner will become Show if the POI group is hidden, or Hide if the group is shown or partly shown. Tip: To make a partly shown group fully shown, tap this button twice. First you will hide the whole group, and then you will have it displayed with all its subgroups. Tapping again the highlighted POI group (except for My POI – described later) opens the list of subcategories of that group.
• Show/Hide: similarly to built-in POIs, you have the possibility to show or hide all POIs of the selected category on the map. Groups with a blue icon are displayed; groups with a grey icon are hidden. • New: you can create a new My POI group by tapping this button. You need to select an icon, a name, and the maximum zoom level at which the POI is still visible on the map (provided you let the POI group be displayed at all). You do not necessarily need to create POI groups in advance.
• Delete: you can delete any of your previously saved POIs. Touch & Go Navigator will ask you to confirm this action. • Edit: you can edit the attributes (name, icon and group) of a previously created POI. • OK: if you tap this button, the map screen returns with the selected POI in the middle. 4.7.2.
Each track log has a colour, shown to the left of its name when the track log is visible on the map. If the track is not visible, an underscore character is shown here. Tapping the line of the highlighted track log will toggle between showing and hiding that log. The track log will be drawn on the map using the colour next to its name. When a track log is being recorded, a new line appears in this list with an underscore, as newly recorded track logs are not shown in the map normally.
• Replay: push this button to see a simulation of the saved track log on the map. A green icon (4.5.12) will appear on the map screens to let you know it is not a fly over but a simulation based on a real saved log. • Delete: you can delete a track log if it is not needed any more. Touch & Go Navigator will ask you to confirm this action.
4.7.3 Route tab This menu contains options to manage different settings in the program. 4.7.3.1 Recalculate This menu point is only available if an active route exists and GPS position is present. It brings up a menu with four options. Using one of these functions you can modify the current route. Recalculate This function repeats the route calculation based on the same settings as used to calculate previously. This possibility is typically used when automatic off-route recalculation is disabled.
no via points left (only the destination), the name of this button turns to Delete Route, and it cancels the navigation. Bypass When you run into a traffic jam or roadblock, you may want to have Touch & Go Navigator calculate a route that departs the original route as soon as it can. You will need to select the minimum distance along the original route where your new route is allowed to rejoin the original route. Select the one you feel appropriate for the traffic difficulty you face.
4.7.3.3 Itinerary This function opens the itinerary (route event list) of the active route. The Itinerary has three different display modes and two functions. Display modes Display modes are different only in the number of events displayed in the list. List items are always shown with all information available including pictograms of the needed action and distance of the event from the previous list item. The Itinerary is live and constantly updated when navigating a route.
• Road: when you exclude a road, Touch & Go Navigator will calculate a route that does not use that road. It is useful when you anticipate a traffic jam in a street used in your route, or a roadblock is announced on the radio, and you find that road in your Itinerary. • Distances: you can also find some distance buttons in this list. They are similar to the ones in the Bypass list of the Recalculation menu (4.7.3.1), but these can also be used for distant parts of the route.
Use the arrows on the right to browse through the list and tap any line to highlight it. You can perform the following operations: • Add: you can add a new route point (or a new final destination if the highlighted item is the last one in the list) after the selected point. The Find menu opens automatically to let you search for an address, POI, coordinates, one of your favourite destinations, or select a point from the History list.
5 Settings Touch & Go Navigator provides several settings in order to let you customise the functions of the program. The Settings screen can be accessed directly from the Main menu screen (4.1) and from the map screens by using the battery icon (4.5.10), while some of its sub-screens are accessible from other parts of the program. 5.1 General settings These are the basic settings of Touch & Go Navigator. 5.1.
5.1.2 Set Favourite Destinations You can select two of your most frequent destinations to be your favourites (6.3.5). You can start navigating to either of them by only two taps on the screen. The original names of these points are Home and Work. You can rename them and specify their locations. To determine the location you can use the same Find menu options (6.
You can set two different kinds of behaviour for the warning: one is applied up to a certain speed limit and the other one is used above that. 5.1.4.1 Speeding tolerance Touch & Go Navigator will warn you when you exceed the speed limit by the amount specified here. Select whether you want to specify the tolerance as a Fixed value (offset to the speed limit) or as a Percentage. The slider will change depending on which mode you have chosen.
5.1.5 Off-route Recalculation Once a route is planned, this setting will tell Touch & Go Navigator what to do when you deviate from that route. 5.1.5.1 Automatic The route will be recalculated automatically a few seconds after you go astray. 5.1.5.2 Ask First Touch & Go Navigator can also ask your preference each time you leave the planned route. The route will not be recalculated until you make your choice from the menu that automatically appears (also explained in 4.6.2).
5.2 Map settings You can set a few parameters determining the appearance of the maps in Touch & Go Navigator. 5.2.1 Daylight / Night colour profile Touch & Go Navigator comes with different colour schemes for both daylight and night use. There is always one selected daytime scheme and one selected night-time scheme. Touch & Go Navigator uses these when switching from day to night and back. Tap the appropriate button and select a new scheme from the list. 5.2.
disabled, street names and icons become visible again. Press Enter or tap Lock to re-enable Lock-to-Position and have the labels and icons disappear again. 5.2.5 Textured Polygons Enable textured polygons, and have rivers, lakes, forests and other large objects displayed in a more realistic and attractive way on the map. Disabling it will lead to uniform areas but better performance. See 4.4.5. 5.3 Sound settings Settings on this page determine the way Touch & Go Navigator sounds. 5.3.
leftmost position the key sounds are suppressed, in its rightmost position they are played at the master volume level. Note: The sound effects of Touch & Go Navigator are context sensitive. They will be different if, for example you open or close a window, or you enable or disable a setting. They will even let you know if you have entered enough letters of a street name to have a short list of matches on the screen. 5.3.
5.4.1 Method Use the handle to set the speed of the route calculation. In the leftmost position the route may not be optimal but the calculation will be very fast. Sliding it to the right will result in more accurate routing in an increased amount of time. Note: Since Touch & Go Navigator calculates routes very quickly, the position of this slide is only used for long routes. Short routes are always calculated to give you the optimal result independent of the slider. 5.4.
motorways for pedestrians), or some of the restrictions may not be taken into account (e.g. emergency vehicles have no restrictions). Available values: • • • • • • • Car Taxi Bus Lorry Emergency Bicycle Pedestrian 5.4.4 Road types to include/exclude To let the route fit your needs you can also set which road types are to be considered for or to be excluded from the route if possible. When a road type is selected, its lamp is green, if not, it turns red and is crossed-out as already described in 3.2.5.
Note: If you are not totally against u-turns, leave them on here, and add a certain penalty (equivalent extra distance to travel) in Advanced settings Route options (5.6.4.2). Note: Via points are handled as stopovers with regards to u-turns. It means disabling u-turns on this page will avoid u-turns during the entire route if possible, but when reaching a via point, the following part of the route may be planned starting in the opposite direction. 5.4.4.
5.5.2 Voice language This button shows the current language of the voice guidance. By tapping the button you can select from a list of available languages and speakers. Tap any of these to hear a sample voice prompt. Just tap OK when you have selected the new spoken language. 5.5.3 Units You can set the distance units to be used by the program. Touch & Go Navigator may not support all of the listed units in some voice guidance languages.
5.6.1 Display options These settings determine how Touch & Go Navigator displays different content elements or how it presents the screens. 5.6.1.1 2D in Map mode (and north-up orientation) The normal use of the Map mode is to browse the map and look for different places on it. It is usually done in a top down view having north towards the top of the map. By default Touch & Go Navigator uses the same look for the map in both Map and Cockpit modes.
5.6.1.4 Coordinate display format Positions are sometimes displayed with their addresses, and sometimes with their coordinates. This setting lets you choose between displaying coordinates in degrees (dd.dddddd); degrees and minutes (dd mm.mmm); or degrees, minutes and seconds (dd mm ss.s). Note: the coordinate display mode is independent from the coordinate input in Find menu. You can use all three formats freely on the coordinate input screen. 5.6.1.
5.6.2.2 Brightness With this switch you can instruct Touch & Go Navigator to use the original settings of the PND device (previously set in the operating system at Start/Settings/Backlight), or you can set the backlight level separately for both daylight and night modes, thus enhancing the effect of the night colour scheme. 5.6.3 Smart Zoom Smart zoom is a lot more than just a usual automatic zoom.
You can also move the map in Overview mode. Then the Lock button will appear, and when pushed, it will move the map to have your current position in the middle again. On the other hand you are not allowed to rotate the map in Overview mode. This mode is a strictly north-up orientated mode. Note: when this automatic feature is disabled, you can still enable the Overview mode manually as described in 4.5.8. 5.6.3.
Note: Smart Zoom can only be re-enabled when it is activated at the top of this page. With Smart Zoom turned off, neither does the Lock button appear, nor will the view return to its previous state if you zoom or tilt the map. Delay before restoring You can set the timeout for both Restore Lock-to-Position and Restore Smart Zoom here. Shorter delays are best if you tend to accidentally change the map display, but you may prefer a longer delay if you often look for things around your position while driving.
This is a range of relative values from 0 to 10, telling Touch & Go Navigator how far the GPS position should be from the recommended route before the program decides to recalculate. Lower values make Touch & Go Navigator insensitive to position errors; higher values will result in quicker reactions. Recalculation delay This is a setting that helps suppress the effects of position fluctuation.
5.6.5.1 Backup Data Since the data stored in primary memory may not be safe, and will not be moved when the Touch & Go Navigator card is put into another PND, you can make a safe copy of the whole user database on the SD card. Tap this button to copy all user data to the SD card. The backup is always created with the same file name; so backing up data will always overwrite previous backups. Tip: If you wish to keep more versions of the user database, or you wish to save one particular state (e.g.
5.6.5.5 Reset Advanced Settings There are a multitude of Advanced settings in Touch & Go Navigator. Some changes may cause Touch & Go Navigator to behave in an unsatisfying manner. Tap this button to restore the default settings.
6 Find One of the most frequently used functions of Touch & Go Navigator is selecting the destination. Once you have the destination, you can start navigating. Getting to this point should be as fast as possible. Touch & Go Navigator provides you with a versatile search engine designed to find your chosen destination after only a few taps on the screen.
Tip: If you want the selected point shown in the centre of the map, close and reopen the menu or wait until it closes and open it again. By opening the Cursor menu manually, the map will be moved to have the selected location in the centre. 6.3 Using the Find menu The Find menu is accessible by the Find & GO button at the Main menu (4.1) or by the Menu buttons of the map screens (4.5.7). The Find menu gives you various possibilities for selecting a location. 6.3.
6.3.1.1 Selecting the city, state and country to search in The first screen of the address-search module is the list of recently used cities (and states in Australia). The first line of the list is always the city you are in or near to. Should the settlement you are looking for appear on the list, just tap it and you will immediately jump to the Street Name Input screen with the selected city name or postcode shown at the top of the screen.
combination of those. You can search for multiple partial words by inserting space characters in the pattern. For example Key West in Florida will be found if you enter ‘Ke W’ or even ‘We K’ (any word order will do). You do not need to enter accents when searching for a destination. Type only the base letters (the letter most similar to the accented one) and Touch & Go will search for all their combinations in the database (e.g.
Once you have selected the city, you can continue by entering the street name. Changing the state (Australia, USA, etc.) Some of the maps contain state information. If the settlement you are looking for is in a different state, tap Other City then Change State from the list of recently used cities, then select the appropriate state. Should you wish to search for an address in the whole country, just tap "All states" at the beginning of the list.
Selecting the centre of the settlement If you wish to navigate to the settlement displayed in the top centre of the screen, just tap Done before entering any letters. The search result will be the centre point of the city (where its name is displayed on the map).
Enter the number, tap Done, and Touch & Go Navigator will show you the selected location on the map (or will start navigating immediately if you have selected Find & GO at the Main menu). Note: House numbers may not be available on the map of your region. Ask your local dealer for details. Tip: If you do not know the house number, just press Done, and the midpoint of the street will be used as the selected location. 6.3.1.
Just pick any of the recent locations as your destination. Here you have no possibility to reorder the list or filter it by name, but the Next and Previous buttons let you browse through the complete list to find your preferred point. Tip: If you will need a location later but you do not want to save it as a POI, just mark it with a pin, and remember its colour to find it easily in the History list. 6.3.3 Find Coordinates Touch & Go Navigator also lets you enter your destination by map coordinates.
Once you have entered both numbers, press Done to make the selection. Tip: The quickest way to tell the coordinates of a point is to select it by tapping on the map or by using Find, and then come to this page and read the coordinates. Tip: If you need to reformat coordinates to the format selected in Touch & Go Navigator at 5.6.1.4, enter the coordinates in the format you have, press Done to show it in the map, then come back here to see the same location in the chosen coordinate display format. 6.3.
• GPS Position: the search will be carried out around the current location given by the GPS if it is available. If no GPS position is available, the last known GPS position (grey arrow on the map) will be used. • Cursor: the search will be carried out around the previously selected map point. • Destination: the search will be carried out around the destination of your current route. The current selection is always shown in the green field at the top of the page.
Tapping OK will return to the map with the selected POI in the centre (or starts navigating to it if Find & GO was selected). Tapping the arrow in the top left corner returns to the search results. Tip: If you want to find the nearest POIs, or if you are close to one of them but do not know exactly where it is or what its name is, tap the All button on the very first screen of POI search, and get a list of the nearest POIs.
