User's Manual MobileNavigator6

4.1.2Map material and route calculation

MobileNavigator6 Java Edition is a so-called offboard navigation system. This means that the map data is located on a server of the NAVIGON AG and not in your mobile telephone. The route calculation doesn’t take place in your mobile telephone either.

The connection with the map server is made via the Internet.

Note: Generally your mobile telephone is configured in such a way that it can make an Internet connection.

If this doesn’t work you must either configure the Internet connection or enable the configured connection.

Refer to your mobile telephone user manual or the homepage of your mobile telephone provider for more detailed information on configuring Internet access.

When you open the map in the navigation software, the navigation software requests from the GPS receiver the geographical coordinates of your current location. Using this data it then requests a map detail from the server on which the current location is included.

A triangle in orange shows your position on the map. The map detail changes continuously as you move. If necessary, the navigation software requests additional data from the map server.

If you calculate a route, then this route is called up from the server together with the necessary map details. The route is highlighted in orange on the map.

4.1.3Costs of data traffic

Note: The Internet connection and downloading the map and route data do cost money – ask your mobile telephone provider for details of prices.

We recommend that you conclude a mobile telephone agreement where the transmission of a specific data volume is included in the price. It is even better if you can conclude a data flat rate.

NAVIGON makes available the map data from the map server free of charge. The software will notify you if there is a charge for the calculation of the routes to a specific destination. You can also view the data for your software agreement and the arising costs at any time on the Internet pages of the NAVIGON AG (www.navigon.com) in your MyNavigon account.
