Waypoint navigation mode (off- road navigation)
Ge neral
Waypoint navigation mode is an off-road function which was developed for trav-
elling in non-digitalised areas at slow speeds. Waypoint navigation mode is not
intended for driving on normal streets, since one- way streets, motorways exits and
entrances, etc. are not detected.
Operating waypoint navigation
A waypoint tour consists of a chain ofwaypoints.
A waypoint is a geo-position determined by GPS
which is saved in the unit with time and date.
When recording a waypointtour, waypoints can
be set automatically or manually. A recorded
waypoint tour can be driven in the recorded di-
rection or in the opposite direction.
Waypoints can only be driven in the order that
they are stored in the system. There is the option
of skipping individual waypoints when driving a
waypoint tour or to inform the system the way-
point one would like to "travel toward" (next
waypoint).
The system cannot perform a1ternat.ive routes or
automatically avoid obstacles. You have the op-
tion while driving a saved waypoint tour, to set
additional waypoints manually to save the re-
routing around an obstacle, for example, for the
next trip.
What can waypoint navigation perform and
what can it not:
Waypoint navigation mode is not intended for
driving on normal streets. because when driving
a saved waypoint tour,
all
of the points have to be
driven exactly, and in the same order as they
have been saved.
For example. the system would attempt to guide
you against the direction of travel on motorways
or on a one-way streets in order to reach the set
waypoints. if you drove the saved waypoint tour
on public roads in the opposite direction. Visual
turning information is also given rather late, and
only a general direction of travel is displayed.
Therefore
it
is better to use waypoint navigation
mode only for driving in non-digitalised areas
without prescribed traffic regulations and only
at slow speeds.
Non-digilalised areas are areas that do not have
any street or off-road information. Thus natural
limits like mountains and rivers are also not de-
tected even if they are shown on the map.
Waypoint navigation mode is thus only an orien-
tation aid for driving in non-digitalized areas.
Thus there is no spoken instructions on a way-
point tour. Only the approximate direction to the
next waypoint is displayed.
GPS reception interrupted
If the GPS reception is interrupted while driving
because you are travelling for a long time under
a canopy of trees, for example. or you are in a
tunnel or underground car park. the symbol for
displaying your vehicle position
G
is shown in
grey. The unit can only determine the waypoints
then using lhe vehicle sensors (rotation of the
wheels and steering angle).
If this condition last a long time. it will result in
inaccuracies in the recording or departing from
the tour. This problem is worsened when driving
on an unstable surface where the wheels tempo-
rarily lose contact with the ground, i.e. can
"spin". ~
