1. Welcome TeleNav utilizes GPS position determination technology and access to your carriers data network. The iPAQ smartphone provides both the Windows Mobile OS environment and access to your carrier network. The TeleNav application provides: • GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the Continental US. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav will calculate a new route for you.
If you are using a handheld mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscure your vision. You may wish to charge the handheld while using TeleNav. If so, make sure the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle controls. WARNING: Drive safely and use common sense. The vehicle operator’s personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over the instructions provided by TeleNav.
4. Installing TeleNav on Your iPAQ TeleNav can be installed on your handset two different ways: 1) by using the iPAQ browser and downloading the application directly to your handset over the air (OTA), or 2) by loading the application from a distribution CD using the Microsoft ActiveSync application. Installation Instructions Using the OTA download method to install 1. Launch Internet Explorer on your iPAQ. 2. Visit the OTA download link: http://ota.telenav.com/ota/tn 3.
5. Launching TeleNav To launch TeleNav on your iPAQ smartphone, find the TeleNav icon on the iPAQ ‘Start Menu > Programs’ and select it. After starting TeleNav, the banner screen will appear for a few seconds. Welcome Screen This next screen describes the services TeleNav provides. Terms of Use Next you must agree to the TeleNav software license and Terms Of Use to use TeleNav in order to continue with the setup process.
Registration The next screen will notify you that you will need your 10-digit phone number, also referred to as an account number, and your 4-digit PIN. NOTE: Your account number MUST be the same as your carrier phone number beginning with area code so that when you call the Voice Address Input System you will not need to type in the account number. Input your TeleNav account number and the PIN you provided when registering for TeleNav services at www.telenav.com.
6. Addresses This section discusses the variety of ways you can select a previously entered address, enter a new one, or use a Business or Airport Address. This information is presented here since the techniques for setting addresses are used throughout TeleNav. Address Selector TeleNav presents a list of options for you to choose from when a) setting a destination address, b) setting an origin address, c) defining the center of a displayed map, or d) anchoring a Business Finder search.
Keying in an Address The form allows you to specify a street address as, “123 Johnson St”, or an intersection as “Johnson at Main”. Note the use of AT or AND in an intersection specification. If you select a Recent City using the Address Selector, the selected city and state information are transferred to the form allowing you to quickly add a new street address. NOTE: TeleNav uses standard 2-letter USPS abbreviations for states. When this page opens, the last used USPS code is shown.
provide the proper range of numbers for you to use. Provide a number that is within the range or nearest the end of the range that you are sure is valid. If you say Intersection and then provide a crossing street name, the voice system may advise you that the streets you provided do not actually cross and allow you to change either street name, or both street names. Select the name you want to change by saying it, and then provide the correct name.
Address validation Once you have entered the street address or selected the crossing street name, TeleNav will check to see if the address you entered can be found. This checking makes sure that: a) the address (door) number you entered is within the range of assigned numbers for the named street and b) when crossing street names are provided, the streets do actually cross.
The first option is “Current Location”, and the second option is “Somewhere else”. Selecting the first option invokes the Navigation function using your current location determined by getting a GPS fix as the origin. There will be brief activity to get an up-to-the-minute GPS location fix, followed by a network transaction while the handheld sends the fix and destination address to the TeleNav servers that respond with the routing data.
Guidance Instructions Within a few seconds, TeleNav will contact the TeleNav server, obtain an optimal route to your destination, and display the first instruction telling you how to start your trip from your current location. NOTE: Unless you are moving, GPS will not provide TeleNav with your direction of travel. If this is the case, the first few guidance instructions may be incorrect since TeleNav may make an incorrect assumption.
Eventually, you will see the destination arrival screen. This screen will show you how far it is to your destination and whether it is on the left or right side of the street or road. Next Turn View When the next turn view is turned on you will see an arrow indicating your direction of travel. When a turn along your route is upcoming the arrow will change indicting the turn distance and direction.
Route Summary View When the route summary view is turned on your will see a list of upcoming turns, the distance to each turn and the street to which you are turning to, similarly to a route view generated by most websites offering driving directions. Audio Guidance Tones TeleNav delivers guidance tones as you drive. A guidance tone will be heard shortly after making a turn, provided that there is time to deliver it and the preparatory tone that follows.
Biz Finder Select Biz Finder and use the Address Selector screen, and perhaps the Address Input screen to help TeleNav determine where you want to search. Once you have picked a point or an area, you can search for businesses, gas stations or for gas by price. A business search requires entering part of the business name, selection of a category, or both.
Name and Category Combined You can perform a brand name search that is restricted to category. Enter part of the business name in the first row of the form. Scroll down to one of the nodes of the category tree. Press the trackwheel to open the node exposing its branches. Any listed branch that is preceded by a “+” can be expanded as well to expose lower level detail. Any listed category that is not preceded by a “+” is a leaf category that has no lower level break out.
Press the Menu button for the options that are: 1) drive to the address, 2) save the business address for later, 3) call it using your phone (requires a calling plan) or 4) obtain a map around the business location. If you Save It, the address is added to the Recent Stops list. If you Map It, you will be presented with a map of the area surrounding the business address. The Call it feature is only present if a phone number is shown on the details page.
Record Location This menu option allows you to mark and label your current location for future reference. If you choose Record Location, there will be brief activity to determine the GPS position, and then you will need to enter a label. After the location is saved, you will be returned to the GPS Tools menu. View Locations This menu option allows you to view a map of the locations that you have saved for future reference.
Maps This service will obtain and present a map around a selected or newly entered address. The Address Selector screen shown above is used to start the process of selecting an existing address, or entering a new one. If you choose Current Location there will be brief activity while TeleNav employs GPS to determine your location. After you have selected or entered an address, there will be brief activity while the handheld obtains the map from the TeleNav servers.
Preferences If you select Preferences you can: • Set the displayed Distance units to either feet and miles or kilometers and meters. • Set the Route type to fastest or shortest, using or avoiding highways or select pedestrian routes. • Turn the Backlight Always On or ON at Turns. • Set Nav Screen to preferred mode.
