Lock-on-Road: This function of ASUS GO will always keep the arrow representing your
actual position on the nearest road. This automatic feature is necessary as the position
given by the GPS receiver is not perfectly accurate. Under normal circumstances Lock-on-
Road will eliminate the occasional position error. If the corridor of error is too large, your
position may be shown over a different street on the map. You can only avoid that by using
good quality GPS equipment positioned so that it has a direct view to as large a portion
of the sky as possible. Normally Lock-on-Road is always active in ASUS GO when GPS
position is available.
Lock-to-Position: When GPS position is available, ASUS GO will automatically keep moving
the map to always have the arrow, representing your actual position, on the screen. You can
move the map to lose this position. Then the Follow button appears on the screen. Tapping it
will re-enable Lock-to-Position.
Map Orientation:ASUS GO is able to rotate the map for your convenience. If you choose
Track-up mode, the map will be rotated to look in the direction of your heading. Selecting
North-up, the map remains oriented to have North toward the top. Use the left and right
hardware buttons to turn your map in the direction you wish. This will immediately turn off
the automatic rotation. A small compass in the top right section of the map screens will
always show the current direction of the map. Map orientation should not be mixed up with
Screen orientation.
North-up: A kind of map orientation having the map rotated to have North toward the top of
the screen. See also Track-up and Map Orientation.
POI: Points Of Interest, exact map locations of important points saved in a database
together with their name, category and subcategories (e.g. Service/Fuel/Autogas), address,
phone and fax number, and other important information. Use the versatile search system in
ASUS GO to find the appropriate POI near you, your destination or any other given location
on the map. You can also have your favourite places saved as 'My POI' in ASUS GO.
