About GPS navigation

The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a constellation of up to 32 satellites that enable a GPS receiver to calculate its geographical position.

For a sufficiently precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the data from at least three satellites. With the data from 4 or more satellites the altitude above sea level can also be determined.

Geographical terrain (such as mountains), man-made structures (such as highway overpasses, bridges and tall buildings), and even weather can interfere with or disrupt the GPS signal.

Once the navigation device has determined your position, it can be used as a starting point for route calculation.

The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical coordinates of all digitally recorded Points Of Interest (POIs), streets and places. This enables the device to calculate a route between a starting point and a destination.

The calculation of the current position and its representation on the map takes place once every second so your current position is always shown on the map.

If GPS reception is impaired, navigation is interrupted but the navigation software remains active. As soon as GPS reception is restored, the navigation system calculates any change of position which has occurred in the meantime and navigation may simply be continued.

NAVIGON 8100T - About GPS navigation - 1

Caution! Please be sure to read, understand, and follow the safety information in "Important safety information" on page 10.

You can speak the city, street and house number for your destination and the NAVIGON 8100T shows you a list of destinations that match your city and street spoken entry. If necessary, you can also change the destination.

Because NAVIGON 8100T voice destination entry 'learns' from previous commands, returning correct destinations becomes faster and easier over time.

The Audio Assistant is used to set spoken entry settings.

General Instructions

When using voice destination entry, always:

  • Speak at a normal rate and clearly say each syllable in the city and street names.
  • Speak directly toward the NAVIGON 8100T microphone.
  • Provide as much information as possible. Include the directional info (North, South, East, West) and the street type (Street, Lane, Avenue, Boulevard, etc.). A spoken entry of "East Madison Street" returns a much shorter list of possible matches than an entry of "Madison".

Languages

When using voice destination entry, speak the address in the language of the location. In the United States and all Canadian provinces except Quebec, speak the name of the location in English. For locations in Quebec, where the language is French, speak the French name of the province, city and street in the location language. Speak the house number in the language used on the NAVIGON 8100T.

For example:

Troubleshooting Hands-Free Operation

The NAVIGON 8100T must be connected to a mobile phone in order for you to use the telephone functions. After the first connection, your NAVIGON 8100T automatically reconnects with your phone each time it comes into range.

Problems occurring when trying to establish a Bluetooth connection can have various causes:

  • Bluetooth is deactivated in the hands-free module of the NAVIGON 8100T.
    => Activate Bluetooth. Make sure that the NAVIGON 8100T can be detected by other Bluetooth devices. (See "Setting Bluetooth Options" on page 144 for more information.)
  • Bluetooth is deactivated on the mobile phone or it is set to "Hidden".
    => Activate Bluetooth on your mobile phone. Make sure that your mobile phone can be detected by other Bluetooth devices.

For more details refer to your mobile phone manual.

  • The NAVIGON 8100T may not have successfully connected to your mobile phone before.
    Initiate the connection manually. (See “Connecting (Pairing) with a Mobile Phone” on page 129 for more information.)
    If none of the above actions resolve the problem, reset the device.
    => With the NAVIGON 8100T powered on, use a stylus or paper clip to press the reset button located on the bottom of the case.
