Initial Set-up

The following guides you step by step through the initial Set-up of the navigation system.

Firstly, remove the foil from the display.

I. Charging the Battery

Attention!

It can be necessary to recharge the battery for some time initially before it is possible to run through the initial installation, according to the state of charging of the battery installed.

Please pay attention to the following notes when handling the battery:

• The charging status display flashes orange until the navigation system is charged. If possible, do not interrupt the charging process before the battery is fully charged. This may take a few hours. The navigation system is fully charged if the charging display lights green. The LED will fade after the end of the charging process in the case of Models 3315 and 3415.
• You can use the navigation system during the charging process, but the power supply must not be interrupted during initial set-up.
• Leave the external power supply connected to the navigation system for around 24 hours, so that the backup battery also charges-up fully.
• You can leave the external power supply connected, and this is very handy for continuous operation. However, the mains adapter (optional) also requires power even when it is not charging up the battery of the navigation system.
• It can take several minutes until the device is ready to operate again, following the connection of the external power supply, if the charging state of the battery is very low.
• The battery can be charged while the device is switched off completely.

IV. Installing the Navigation Software

The final installation of the navigation software will take place automatically from the internal memory, during the initial setting up, if your device has already been equipped with the basic data of the navigation software at the factory. Follow the instructions on the screen.

An optional memory card must always have to be inserted in the device while the navigation system is being used.

It will be necessary to carry out a Reset to restart the navigation system if the memory card has been removed (see page 22).

Please also read the chapter Navigation starting on page 23.

General Operating Instructions

Switching On/Off the Device

Your device will be in its normal operating state after the initial setting up. You can activate and deactivate your device with the On-/Off switch.

1. To start your navigation system press briefly the On-/Off switch ⏻.

Note

Your device is delivered in a status in which it will not switch off independently. You can adjust the period of operation to suit your needs using the Settings button on the main screen of your device.

1. To switch off your navigation system press briefly the On-/Off switch ⏻. (standby mode).

Your navigation system will use a low amount of electricity and the batteries will be discharged, even when it is in the standby mode.

Working with Memory Cards

Your navigation system supports MMC and SD memory cards.

Inserting Memory Cards

1. Carefully take the optional memory card out of its packing (if included). Take care not to touch or dirty the contacts.
2. Insert the memory card carefully into the card bay with contacts pointing forward. The card must lock easily.

Removing Memory Cards

Note

Only remove the memory card if the navigation software has been closed and the device has been switched off by means of the On/Off button beforehand. Otherwise you will risk a loss of data.

1. To remove the card press lightly onto the upper edge until it ejects.
2. Pull the card out without touching the contacts.

Accessing Memory Cards

- The appliance only supports memory cards in the FAT16/32 file format. If you insert a card prepared with a different format (e.g. in cameras, MP3 players), your navigation system may not recognize it and will ask you to format it again.

Warning

Formatting the memory card irretrievably wipes out all data.

Data Exchange via Card Reader

If you wish to copy large quantities of data (MP3 files, navigation maps) to the memory card, these can also be stored directly to the memory card.

Many computers already have memory card devices. Insert the card in this and copy the data directly to the card.

Because of the direct access you can achieve a much higher transfer rate compared to using ActiveSync.

Resetting the Navigation System

You will have the possibility of resetting your navigation system if it is no longer reacting or working properly.

Attention!

A hard reset will delete all data in the temporary memory.

Perform the hard reset as follows:

1. Detach the external electricity supply.
2. Push the main switch to the OFF position initially and back to ON after 2 seconds.

The re-installation of the software on your synchronization computer will not be necessary.

Navigation

Safety Instructions for Navigation

The bundled product CD/DVD contains a comprehensive instruction manual.

General Instructions

• Do not manipulate the navigation system while driving to protect yourself and others from accidents!
• In the event that you do not understand the voice instruction or if you are in any doubt about what to do at the next intersection, then the map or arrow display will provide you with a quick orientation. Only look at the display when you are in a safe driving situation!

Legal remark

The use of devices that warn for traffic monitoring systems (like „speed traps”) is prohibited in some countries, like Austria, Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. Please obtain information about the legal situation and apply the waning function only where allowed. We cannot be held liable for damages caused by the use of the warning function.

Attention!

The road layout and driving rules take precedence over the instructions of the navigation system. Only follow the instructions when circumstances and driving rules permit it! The navigation system will guide you to your destination even when you have to deviate from your planned route.

• The direction statements of the navigation system given do not release the driver of the vehicle from his or her duty of care or personal responsibility.
• Plan routes before you leave. If you want to plan a new route whilst on the road pull over and stop driving.
• In order to receive the GPS signal correctly, keep away from metal objects as they may hinder reception. Attach the navigation system onto the inside of the windscreen or near the windscreen with the suction cup. Try out different positions in your vehicle in order to find the best reception.

Notes for Use in a Vehicle

• Take care that the holder does not present any risk to safety, even in the case of an accident, when installing it.
  • Take care that the cable does not impede any safety components.
• The display of your navigation system may show “light reflections”. Please take care of not being “blinded” during operation.
• Do not mount the components within the operating range of any airbags.
• Check the secure adherence of the suction cup at regular intervals.
• The power plug will consume power, even if no device is connected. Remove it when not in use to avoid draining the car battery.
• Check all safety equipment in your car after installation.

Note

Do not leave your navigation software in the vehicle when you leave it. You should also uninstall the holder for security reasons.

Additional Notes for Use on a Bicycle or a Motorcycle

• Pay attention during installation that the ability to steer is not impaired.
- Do not cover any instruments during installation.

Aerial Orientation

The aerial must have unrestricted access to the sky to receive GPS satellite signals. Orient the aerial as horizontally as possible for this reason. Try out aerial and installation possibilities in the vehicle in the case of inadequate reception. It may be necessary to install an external GPS antenna (see page 59) under certain circumstances.

I. Mounting the Car Holder

Attention!

Only fix the holder for the navigation system to the windscreen, if it does not impede the view. Should this not be possible, then mount the holder with the enclosed suction plate in any way that will allow peril-free and safe operation.

Further information regarding the navigation software can be found in the comprehensive manual on your navigation CDs/DVDs. This is a pdf-file you can read and print with the any Acrobat Reader.

Note

The GPS-receiver will require some minutes for initialization when deployed for the first time. Even when GPS signal reception is indicated the navigation could be imprecise. In all future instances it will take about 30-60 seconds until a correct GPS-signal is available, sufficient “sight” of the satellite is a prerequisite.

Information about Monitoring Traffic

The warning function before traffic monitoring points will be deactivated as standard when bringing the system into operation for the first time. The current status of the monitoring can be taken from the colour of the small square in the lower right corner of the display. (Red = deactivated, Green = activated)

The menu for activating the warning function is reached by tapping the red square. Please pay attention to the information on the right before activating the system*

The display and the acoustic warning before traffic monitoring points can be activated or deactivated in the menu that now appears. Safety information will be displayed and will also have to be confirmed before final activation.

Traffic monitoring points will be displayed in the 2D map display if the monitoring program has been activated.

Acoustic information about a traffic monitoring point will be given by a warning sound approx. 15 seconds before it is reached. Then, another double warning sound will be given approx. 7 seconds before it is reached. Four warning sounds will give information that the speed is too high. The distance from the monitoring point will also be presented by an approach bar (right edge of the screen).

\*Legal remark

The use of devices that warn for traffic monitoring systems (like „speed traps”) is prohibited in some countries, like Austria, Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. Please obtain information about the legal situation and apply the waning function only where allowed. We cannot be held liable for damages caused by the use of the warning function.

Appendix

Special CleanUp Function

The CleanUp function allows the targeted deletion of data, without using a PC.

IMPORTANT

Please use this function very carefully, because it is possible for data to be deleted that can only be entered again manually afterwards.

The CleanUp function is activated when the ‘o’ is pressed in the Gopal lettering of the Main Menu, immediately after the start tone following a reset.

The CleanUp function offers 6 options:

1. Remove Installation Only

Removes the software installed from the 'My Flash Disk'

memory [= part of the permanent memory in which the executable parts of the navigation software will be located following the initial alignment (\My Flash Disk\Navigation)].

2. Remove MAP Only

Removes the digital maps from the 'My Flash Disk' memory (\My Flash Disk\MapRegions).

3. Remove Preload Only

Removes the data needed for the installation of the navigation software from the permanent memory (\My Flash Disk\Install).

Leaving the CleanUp function and restarting the device (like reset).

Note

The deletion of the data must be confirmed before the action actually takes place. To do this, press on YES. There will be a corresponding report if the data to be deleted is no longer available.

Please read the „Transferring Installation Files and Map Material to the Internal Memory“ chapter on Page 63, in order to recreate the files (installation files and map material) in the internal memory.

Synchronisation with the PC

I. Installing Microsoft ActiveSync

In order to transfer data between your PC and your navigation system you need the Microsoft ActiveSync program.

The cost of the navigation system includes a license for this program which can be found on the CDs/DVDs.

Note

You will not need the ActiveSync ^® communications software, if you are a user of the Windows Vista ^® operating system. The system files necessary for the simple data transfer are already integrated into your Vista ^® operating system.

Procedure for Vista users:

Please connect your device to your PC with the help of the USB synchronization cable. The necessary drivers will be installed automatically, after the new device has been found. Your new device will be listed under the 'Portable Devices' point in the Windows Explorer overview, following a successful installation.

Attention

Important files can be overwritten or changed during the installation of software. You should create a hard disk backup, in order to be able to have access to the original files in the case of possible problems following the installation.

You must have administrator rights to install the software under Windows ^® 2000 or XP.

Attention

You should not connect the navigation system to your computer yet.

1. Insert the Support CD and wait until the program starts automatically.

Note

If it does not function, the Auto Run function is probably deactivated. The Setup program on the CD must be started, to start installation manually.

1. Choose the language, click then Install ActiveSync ^* and follow the instructions on the screen.

II. Connecting with the PC

1. Press the On/Off button to start your navigation system.
2. Connect the USB cable (optional) to your navigation system.
3. Push the USB connector into a free USB port on your computer.
4. The hardware installation assistant will recognize a new appliance and installs a suitable driver which can take some minutes. Repeat the die connection search if it fails the first time.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen. The program will now set up a partnership between your PC and the device.

III. Working with Microsoft ActiveSync®

ActiveSync ^* will be started automatically if you connect your navigation system to the PC. The program will check whether the device is one with which a partnership has been entered. If this is the case, the changes that have taken place on the PC and on the navigation system since the last synchronisation will be compared and adjusted to each other. You will be able to define exactly which data will have priority during the synchronisation in the settings of the ActiveSync Program. Call up the Help of the Program (with the F1 Button), in order to become familiar with the effects of the respective settings. A restricted Guest Access, with which you will be able to exchange data, for example, will become active automatically if the navigation system has not been recognised as a partner. If this is the case, although the process concerns the registered partner device, separate your navigation system from the PC and switch it off and on again. Now connect your navigation system to the PC, to restart the recognition process. Repeat the process and, restart your PC in addition, if your device continues to be recognised as a guest.

Note

Make sure that you always connect your navigation system to your PC with the same USB connection, otherwise your PC will allocate an additional ID and reinstall the device.

GPS (Global Positioning System)

GPS is a satellite-backed system for determining your position. With the help of 24 satellites revolving around the earth, it is possible to determine your position on earth with the accuracy of a few meters. The satellite signals are received by the antenna of the built-in GPS receiver, which must have a "line of sight" to at least 4 of these.

Note

When the line of sight (e.g. in tunnels, between houses, in woods or also in vehicles with metal-coated windows) it is not possible to determine the position. The satellite reception however automatically picks up again as soon as the obstacle has been passed and the line of sight is re-established. Moving slowly (e.g. slow walking) also limits the accuracy of the navigation.

The GPS receiver consumes additional power. This is especially of concern, when running on batteries. To conserve power do not turn on the GPS receiver unnecessarily. Also terminate the Navigation Software, if it is not needed or satellite reception is not possible for a longer period. However, you can also switch the device off by means of the On/Off switch in the case of a shorter interruption to your journey. Pressing the same switch again will activate a restart. The GPS receiver will also be reactivated at the same time, if navigation software is still active. Here, it can take a short time for the position to be updated again, according to the reception situation.

Note

Please note, that your appliance is preset to not shut down automatically after a few minutes without activity. You can change this preset in the Settings mode. If the GPS receiver has not been active for some hours, it must orientate itself again. This process may take a while.

External GPS antenna

This second optional GPS antenna makes it possible to receive the signals of satellites better (e.g. in the case of vehicles with a metallized windscreen).

1. The antenna should be pointing upwards.
2. Push the plug of the external GPS antenna into the opening provided for it (see page 10).

TMC (Traffic Message Channel)

The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a digital radio data service that functions in a similar way to RDS and is used to transmit disruptions to traffic to a suitable reception device.

The traffic information is continuously transmitted across FM.

The user is less dependent on the half-hourly broadcast traffic information, because the signal is continuously transmitted. Apart from this, important information, as in the case of people driving on the wrong side of the road for example, can be passed on immediately.

The transmission is planned for the whole of Europe and is already offered by radio transmitters in many countries. The precision of the TMC messages can deviate greatly according to the country.

The evaluation of TMC messages is not supported by every type of navigation software. Enquire whether your system supports TMC before the possible purchase of a TMC receiver.

Installing the External TMC Receiver / Connecting the TMC Diplole Aerial (optional)

Installing the External TMC Receiver (for models E3115, E3315)

1. Connect the mini-USB plug to the mini-USB connection of your device.
2. Connect the projecting antenna to the TMC receiver and attach that antenna with the aid of the suckers, at the edge of your windscreen, for example.
3. Connect the TMC receiver to the car adapter cable after you have attached the TMC receiver to your navigation system.

Diagram showing a car interior connected to an attached device via cable, with no visible text or symbols.

Connecting the TMC Dipole Aerial (models E3215, E3415)

1. Plug the jack plug of the TMC angled aerial into the earphones connection on the left side of your navigation system.
2. Attach the aerial, on the edge or your windscreen, for example, with the help of the sucker.
3. Place the aerial so that a distance of approx. 10 cm from the metal frame of the screen is maintained

(similar pictures)

Your navigation system will now be able to receive traffic information through the TMC receiver and thus to avoid potential disruptions to traffic.

Additional Card Material

Your navigation system is already equipped with digitalized map material in the internal memory and/or memory card at the factory. Depending on the configuration, additional maps may be included on your your navigation CDs/DVDs. You will be able to transfer these cards to a memory card immediately. Here, it is recommended to use an external card reader (see also page 21). The GoPal Assistant supplied with the device enables a simple and individual compilation of the map material to be transferred.

Depending on the amount of map data on the navigation CDs/DVDs, memory cards with capacities of 256 MB, 512 MB, 1.024 MB or more may be required.

You can obtain additional memory cards (MMC or SD cards) in specialist stores.

Transfer of card material to a memory card

The transfer of additional card material to a memory card can take place through the Explorer of your PCs. Proceed as follows:

1. Insert the CD/DVD with the card material required.
2. Start your workstation and select your CD/DVD Drive.
3. Copy the file with the .psf ending out of the Directory of the region that you require to the MapRegions Directory on your memory card, from the CD/DVD.

You can transfer several files with map material to your memory card, depending on the capacity of the memory card.

If you have copied digitized maps of several countries or country groups onto your memory card, you will be required to select the desired map in the navigation application of your device.

Alternative Installation of the Navigation Software from a Memory Card

The software for your navigation system can also be installed directly from a memory card.

The pre-installed software may have to be uninstalled beforehand (see special CleanUp function, Page 55).

You will be requested to install the navigation software during the initial adjustment. Please proceed as follows:

1. Remove the memory card from the packaging carefully. Pay attention that the contacts are not touched or soiled.
2. Push the memory card into the SD-/MMC slot until it engages.
3. Click on OK, in order to install the application.

The main screen, through which you will now be able to carry out the navigation settings, will appear after all data has been copied to your navigation system.

Transferring Installation Files and Map Material to the Internal Memory

Note

The navigation system must be connected to a computer by means of ActiveSync (see Page 58), for the transfer of the data.

Your device has an internal, permanent memory, which is located in the \My Flash Disk directory.

You will be able to make this directory, and others, visible with ActiveSync ^* , by means of the Search option. Directories and files can be manipulated as in Windows Explorer.

The required directory must have been stored, in order to make the installation files and the map material for the device available.

Deposit the INSTALL directory for the installation files at (\My Flash Disk\INSTALL). Deposit the map material in the MapRegions directory (\My Flash

Disk\MapRegions). Please pay attention to the modes of lettering given above when naming the directories.

Pay attention to the fact that sufficient drive capacity must be available, if you have stored additional data on your navigation device. Remove files not needed if sufficient drive capacity is not available.

Mounting on (Bicycle) Handlebars (optional)

You can attach your navigation system to a bicycle as an optional additional feature. A special holder is needed to do this. The installation is explained in the following.

(similar picture)

1. Release both the screws connecting the clamp to the holding plate with the hexagon key.

2. Remove the rubber ring and wind it around the handlebars.

3. Position the clamp on your bicycle handlebars, by pulling it across the handlebars from below.

4. Put the holding plate back onto the clamp and retighten both the screws.
