display shows your current position on a moving map. It's the main dis-
play mode you will be using while driving.
You can do a lot with the Map Mode display. Its basic purpose is to
show where you are and what is around you. That is what we mean
when we say "current position on a moving map." The iWAY uses a
black arrowhead icon to indicate where you are on the map. The arrow
is always pointing in the direction you are traveling.
When you have the Map Mode centered on your current position, the
iWAY will keep this icon in the center of the screen, scrolling the map
as you travel so that you can see your surroundings change. If you pass
under a highway, you will see the highway on the map approach your
current position icon, then scroll away behind it even as the highway
overpass dwindles in your rear-view mirror.
At left, Map Mode display zoomed out. At right, Map Mode display
zoomed in with cursor arrow up and Map Display Toolbar buttons
showing. Map Orientation button at bottom right indicates North Up.
There are three different ways to view the map. The Map Orientation
button can be found in the bottom right corner of the screen whenever
the map display toolbar is active. Touch this button to toggle between
North Up, Track Up and 3D Mode. Practice some with each of the
modes, and find out which one is right for you.
The iWAY is useful for more than just showing you your current posi-
tion. Overlay Data boxes – like the one in the top center of the upper
left image – provide textual information about your location and the
route that you are following. You also need to be able to look around
and find destinations for the iWAY to get you to, whether they're across
town or across the country.
At any time you can change what is visible on the map display by touching
the screen, which will bring up a toolbar with several map display buttons.
