the program if the matching items can be displayed on one page, or displayed on
more pages if you tap Done after entering some letters.
Note: Postcodes may not be available for the selected country. In this case you need
to enter the name of the settlement.
You can accomplish this by using an alphabetic input screen (either an ABC- or a
QWERTY-type). You only need to enter the first few letters, as the program only
searches among the settlements that exist in the given state or country. If the name
of the settlement is of more than one word, the searched pattern can be any or the
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 The NVX225 will search
for all their combinations in the database (e.g. for the Canadian town 'Déléage' you
only need to type 'Deleage', and the rest is done by the program).
As you start typing, The NVX225 will calculate the number of settlements matching
your pattern(s). This number is shown at the right end of the input line. If all the
matching city names can fit on one screen, the sound played when hitting the key will
be different, and The NVX225 will show you all the results in a list. You can select the
one you are looking for by tapping the appropriate list item.
Note: When more than 300 matching items (a list of more than 60 pages) exist for the
entered pattern(s), The NVX225 stops searching, and displays '>300' at the right end
of the input line. Enter more letters to narrow the list.
Note: When the name of the settlement contains a character that is not available on
the keyboard (e.g. apostrophe or dash), The NVX225 considers it a space that splits
the word. That is why you can search for 'Alleyn-Et-Cawood' with all the following
search criteria: 'A E C', 'Et A', or 'Al Ca'.
Tip: If you have finished entering the street name and the matching names are still on
more than one page, just tap Done, and select your desired settlement from the list.
Turn the pages with the arrow buttons in the bottom right corner.
