Navigation

Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning System, you no longer need to spend hours searching through road atlases.

Once outside buildings, the receiver antenna integrated in the unit gives you continuous access to navigational possibilities. Depending on reception, you may not be able to use the navigational function inside buildings. When used in vehicles, you may not be able to adequately receive GPS data depending on how the Traffic Assist Highspeed II is installed. In such cases, you will have to connect up an external antenna (does not fall within the scope of supply).

The Traffic Assist Highspeed II is equipped with TMC, which gives you the option of receiving traffic announcements via the TMC antenna provided. Traffic announcements are transmitted when the TMC is active. The system plans an alternative route automatically or on request to avoid traffic problems, depending on the setting.

Music

Thanks to the integrated MP3-Player, you can listen to your favourite tracks when on the go.

Pictures

The Traffic Assist Highspeed II has a Picture Viewer offering many functions for viewing pictures.

General operations

Maintenance and care

The unit is maintenance-free.

For proper care, a commercially available cleansing fluid for electrical devices may be applied using a soft damp cloth.

Danger!

Danger to life by electrocution. Always switch off the unit and disconnect the mains power supply unit before cleaning the unit, supplied components, or accessories.

Note:

Do not use any aggressive or abrasive substances or cloths which may damage the surface.

The unit must not be exposed to water.

Your mobile navigation system was designed and manufactured with great care and should be treated with equal care. You will enjoy your mobile navigation system for a long time to come if you observe the recommendations listed in the following:

• "Protect your mobile navigation system from water and moisture. If your unit is exposed to moisture, switch it off immediately and disconnect the power supply. Allow the unit to dry at room temperature.
• Do not operate your mobile navigation system in a dusty or dirty environment and do not store it in such an environment.
• Do not store your mobile navigation system in hot environments. High temperatures can shorten the service life of electronic components in your unit, damage the rechargeable batteries and cause certain plastics to warp or melt.
• Do not store your mobile navigation system in cold environments. During operation, when the unit warms up to operating temperature, moisture may form internally, causing damage to electronic components.
• Do not drop your mobile navigation system unit, protect it from shocks and do not shake it. Improper handling can damage components within the unit.

- Never use corrosive or aggressive chemicals, cleaning solutions or aggressive detergents for cleaning.

All the above information applies equally to the mobile navigation system, the rechargeable battery, the mains charging and car power adapters as well as all accessories. Should one of these parts not work properly, please contact your authorised dealer. He will be pleased to assist.

General operations

Battery quality declaration

The capacity of the rechargeable battery in your mobile navigation system decreases with every charging/discharging cycle. Improper storage at excessively high or low temperatures may also cause a gradual deterioration of capacity. Consequently, the operating time may be substantially reduced even in the case of a fully charged battery.

The rechargeable battery is designed such that it should certainly still be possible for it to be charged and discharged after 6 months of operation of your mobile navigation system. In the event of a significant loss of capacity, we recommend replacement of the rechargeable battery. Please contact your authorised dealer. Use only genuine BECKER original spare parts.

Display quality declaration

In some cases, for technical reasons, a few discoloured dots (pixels) may be visible on the display. Some pixels may also appear brighter or darker. However, such instances do not represent a product flaw.

Start-up

Once the Traffic Assist Highspeed II has been unpacked and checked for damage, the unit can be started up. The individual start-up stages are:

• insert memory card
• connect to power supply
• Switching on the unit
• Ensuring antenna reception (if navigation is desired)

Note:

When the unit is switched on for the first time, internal configuration takes place. This takes several minutes. Do not switch the unit off during this configuration.

Memory card

The card supplied with the unit can hold one set of roadmaps. If you intend to listen to music using the Traffic Assist Highspeed II or want to view images, you must save these to a separate card (not included).

Playback of music while an active navigation is in progress is only possible if a memory card with a higher storage capacity is used (available separately). This can be used to store additional map material as well as music tracks.

Also ensure that there is enough space to easily slide the Traffic Assist High-speed II back out of the bracket.

Clean the mounting area on the wind-screen or dashboard so that it is clean and free of grease. Do not use smearing, soapy cleaning agents, otherwise this may affect how it sticks to the dashboard.

On the windscreen

If the dashboard is too far away from the driver, the unit bracket can be fittedirectly to the windscreen using the suction mechanism.

▶If the adapter plate (4) is already secured at the foot (5), remove this. Pull the lever (3) upwards and remove the adapter plate (4) downwards for this purpose.
▶Find a suitable position.
▶Press the base (5) with its suction surface against the windshield.
▶Rotate the unit bracket so that the support plate is roughly in the direction of viewing required.
▶Press the lever (3) downwards.

The bracket will have stuck firmly to the windscreen. It can now be set precisely.

To remove, actuate the lever (3) again.

On the dashboard

An adapter plate is provided for mounting on the dashboard. This is stuck on to the dashboard. The mounting face may only be slightly curved.

Note:

If the adapter plate is removed, you may find residue from the glue on your dashboard.

▶Find a suitable position.
▶Remove the protective film from the lower contact surface of the adapter plate (4). Press the adapter plate (4) onto the instrument panel.

More maps

When supplied, a set of maps is already installed on the memory card. If this is insufficient for the current location, there are others on the DVD supplied. These should be loaded on to the memory card. The countries covered by the individual map sets appear in the installer prior to installation.

Map loaded

The map currently loaded can be called up directly from Traffic Assist High-speed II (see also page 48).

Installation program

There is a map installation program on the map DVD. Once the DVD is inserted in a personal computer's DVD drive, this program will usually start up automatically. The program guides you through the installation process.

Otherwise, you will have to start the program manually.

▶Open Windows ^® Explorer.
▶Select your DVD drive folder.
▶Double click on the "Setup.exe" file.

Transferring files

Files can be transferred indirectly via the memory card or directly via the USB port.

Note:

Only the maps supplied in the Traffic Assist Highspeed II may be used. The installation or transfer of files or programs which limit or modify the function of the Traffic Assist Highspeed II is prohibited!

Transferring using the SD card reader

The simplest form of transfer is to use a standard SD card reader (does not fall within the scope of supply). The memory card is plugged into this.

The files required are then saved on the memory card using the computer's software.

General operations

Transferring using the USB port

The USB port is used to link the Traffic Assist Highspeed II directly to a personal computer.

For transfers, the Microsoft® Active Sync program must be installed on the computer. This is available free-of-charge from the manufacturer.

Close-up of a hand inserting a USB into a gold-colored electronic device with ventilation grille (no visible text or symbols)

The link then involves several steps:

▶switch off Traffic Assist Highspeed II.
▶link the Traffic Assist Highspeed II and computer using the USB cable.
▶ switch the Traffic Assist Highspeed II back on.

ActiveSync automatically sets up a link to the Traffic Assist Highspeed II.

Transferring maps

The installation software from the DVD should be used for the transfer. This involves the following stages:

▶ switch off Traffic Assist Highspeed II.
▶remove memory card and plug into an SD card reading device or the use the USB cable to connect the Traffic Assist Highspeed II to the computer.

▶boot up the computer and insert the DVD.

▶ use the installation program to transfer the map required.

▶slide the memory card back into the Traffic Assist Highspeed II or correctly remove the USB cable.

▶switch the Traffic Assist Highspeed II back on. The new map is available right away

Transferring pieces of music and pictures

Since the map data takes up virtually all the 1GB memory capacity of the memory card supplied, pictures and music should be saved on to another SD card. The files can be transferred via a card reader or the USB connection.

Note:

Use obvious folder names because these will help you later when you are trying to find the file you want in the Traffic Assist Highspeed II.

Faults

If unit faults relating to the operating system occur, messages to this effect will be displayed. These should be acknowledged. If the activated function cannot then be executed, the Traffic Assist Highspeed II must be restarted using the ON/OFF switch or the reset button. If the messages reappear or the unit does not function correctly for any other reason, please contact your local stockist.

Note:

Never attempt to open the unit yourself. Please contact your authorised dealer if you are unable to remedy the fault.

Navigational mode

What is navigation?

Navigation (Latin navigare = to travel by sea) is generally understood to mean finding the position of a vehicle, determining the direction of and distance from the desired destination and establishing and following a route to this destination. Navigational aids include the stars, distinct objects, a compass and satellites.

The Traffic Assist Highspeed II uses its GPS receiver to find the vehicle's position. (The Global Positioning System (GPS) was developed by the US military in the 1970's as a missile guidance system.

GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites circling the earth which continuously emit signals. The GPS receiver receives these signals and uses the delay of each of the signals to calculate its distance from the individual satellites. In turn, it can use this information to determine its current geographical position. The signals of at least three satellites are needed to establish position. If four or more signals are available, height above sea level can also be calculated).

Traffic Assist Highspeed II determines the direction of and distance to the destination with the aid of a digital road atlas on the SD card and the navigation computer.

For safety, directions to the designation are mainly provided verbally. The direction display and map diagram on the touch screen are further aids.

⚠ Safety information

• The road traffic act takes precedence in all circumstances. The navigational system is only an aid. The data/details provided may in some cases be incorrect. The driver must always decide whether to follow the details given or not.
  We accept no liability for the navigational system issuing incorrect details.
• When first started up, it may take up to 30 minutes before a position can be determined.
• Precedence should always be given to actual traffic signs and local traffic rules.
• The directions only relate to cars. Special recommendations and rules for other vehicles (e.g. commercial vehicles) are not taken into consideration.
• Destinations may only be input when the vehicle is stationary.

What is dynamic route guidance?

Dynamic route guidance calculates the route, while taking into account current traffic announcements.

Note:

Dynamic route guidance is not available for all countries (currently only Belgium, Germany, Denmark, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland and Spain).

TMC reception must be available in order to activate dynamic navigation and the functions described below.

Traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations via the TMC (Traffic Message Channel) in addition to the radio programme and are received and analysed by the navigation system. Receiving traffic announcements is free of charge.

Note:

As the traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations, we cannot assume responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of the announcements.

Austria: The location and event code was made available by ASFINAG and BMVIT.

If dynamic route guidance is active, a continuous check is made for the presence of relevant announcements for the selected route (however, traffic problems still appear on the map even when route guidance is not active).

B270 KAISERGALUTR BURG.

If these continuous checks determine that a traffic announcement is relevant to route guidance, the unit will automatically recalculate a new route to the destination (See "The TMC button" on page 55.).

Specialist words

Active Sync

Active Sync is a Microsoft product. This is the standard synchronisation software for Windows mobile units such as your Traffic Assist Highspeed II. The programme can be downloaded free-of-charge from the internet.

GMT

(Greenwich Mean Time)

Central European Time

The standard time at 0 degrees of longitude (the longitude which passes through Greenwich, Great Britain). This time is used worldwide for the synchronisation of data collection.

GPS

(Global Positioning System)

GPS determines your actual geographical position by the use of satellites. It is based on 24 satellites which orbit the Earth and emit signals. The GPS receiver receives these signals and calculates the distance to each satellite from the running time differences and thus evaluates its actual current position in terms of geographical length and width. In order to determine the position, signals from at least three satellites are required, and the fourth one allows the height to be determined.

HDOP

(Horizontal Dilution Of Precision)

HDOP states the quality of the positional dtermination. In theory, values from 0 to 50 are possible, whereby the following applies: the smaller the value the more accurate the positioning (value 0= no deviation from the actual position). Values of up to 8 are acceptable for navigation units.

ID3-Tag

„Index of Contents" of an MP3 title. Contains information such as title, artist, album, year and genre.

JPG/JPEG

(Joint Photographic Experts Group)

The JPEG is the most common type of storage format for dissipating picture compression., i.e. when compressing, details of the picture are lost. Still provides good picture quality despite compression, compression stages are selectable. It is the most common format for representation and exchange of pictures on the internet.

Memory Card

A re-writable storage card. In the Traffic Assist Highspeed II it is a SD card.

MP3

Special compression process for audio data (e.g. music).

Specialist words

File

Index

SD Card

(Secure Digital)

The Secure Digital Card was developed in 2001 by SanDisk on the basis of the older MMC standard. An SD card is a re-writable change-over storage card.

Stylus

A stylus is an input pointer which is used for the operation of touch-screens, mobile phones or PDAs.

The stylus consists basically of a plastic pointer with a softer plastic core. The sleeve is hard and can be gripped and the softer core emerges at the tip and is designed to touch the screen as softly as possible (i.e. without the danger of scratching the screen).

The stylus is more accurate than operation using the fingers, since only the thin tip touches the screen. In addition, dirty marks on the screen caused by finger prints are avoided.

TMC

(Traffic Message Channel)

Traffic announcements transmitted by most FM stations via RDS. Basis for dynamic navigation.

USB

(Universal Serial Bus)

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a bus sytem for interconnection of a computer with external USB peripherals for the exchange of data.
