CoPilot Live Communications

CoPilot Live allows you to maintain two-way communication with drivers who are using CoPilot and to actually see where they are currently located. You can do this from the CoPilot Live web page.

Using this CoPilot Live functionality requires the following:

1)If you want to track and message other drivers from a desktop or laptop computer: Your PC must be connected to the internet so that you can access our CoPilot Live web page through a normal web browser.

2)If you want others to track and send messages to you: CoPilot Live must be running on your Pocket PC in your vehicle. You must have a wireless Internet connection.

About the CoPilot Live Web Page

As a CoPilot user, you can create an account on our website that allows your family, friends, and coworkers to “see” you and communicate with you anywhere in the world!

Through the website you can do all of the following:

•Send text messages to CoPilot users on the road, using large, customizable, one-touch response buttons to ensure driver safety.

•Real-time tracking of other people who are on the road. See their current location, destination, ETA and much more on a map.

•Send trip itinerary updates including new stops and revised destinations — you can coordinate a change in plans with someone who’s on the road right now.

•Create an online account from where you can send temporary or permanent tracking numbers to friends and family, giving you tighter control of the security so you know who has access to you while you’re on the road. You can also create and join groups with other CoPilot users, and manage all your account preferences.

•Connection: Turn Wireless Communication On. Tap Edit and enter the Account Name and Password you created on the CoPilot Live web site. The Vehicle Name is how others will identify you. Choose your Internet Connection and manually Connect or Disconnect.

NOTE: Your screen name, user name, and/or password can be changed as many times as you like. But you’ll need to change your user name or password on the Live Web page before changing them on your Pocket PC. This is not required for your screen name.

•Invites: Invitations can be sent to e-mail recipients for real-time location tracking.

•Messages: View or Delete messages received.

•Settings: Choose the message timeout and how frequently you want to broadcast your position. Less frequent broadcasts will reduce the data traffic on your Internet plan.

Your Live connection status is shown at the bottom right of the black information bar:

•Green — Good.

•Yellow — OK. Usually seen when first connecting or in poor GPRS coverage.

•Red — No connection. Check your GPRS network coverage and Live settings.
