Current position and Lock-on-Road
When your GPS position is available, a blue arrow (yellow when using night colours)
shows your location on the map.
The direction of the arrow represents your heading. The arrow is sized and vertically
rotated with the zoom and tilt levels to always look realistic.
HP iPAQ Trip Guide has a built-in Lock-on-Road feature that always puts the position
arrow on the road, on the axis of the street in case of one-way streets, or on the side
of the road where you drive (e.g. on the right in Germany and on the left in the U.K.)
on two-way roads.
The location received from the GPS receiver is shown as a blue dot on the map. This
can help you locate your position if the GPS accuracy is poor, and the Lock-on-Road
system puts you on the wrong street. It is also the location saved in the track log
(Page 62).
