How to get directions to "Navitel"? Routing: tips, reviews
The cost of portable devices that can interact with the signals of navigation satellites has decreased so much that gadgets with GPS (Global Positioning System) are even among schoolchildren. It's no wonder that their owners want to know how to properly use the opportunities built into the device.
Luxury or necessity
Until now, there is an opinion that the navigator is necessary, first of all, to those people who, by the nature of their work, are forced to drive.
Software
So, the navigator "Navitel" was bought. How to get directions using it? First you need to prepare. For the navigation program to work, it must have access to the maps of the country or locality where the route is planned. If different Internet services of a similar orientation (Google Maps) constantly download the necessary data from the Web, then Navitel, on the contrary - uses the appropriate files from the device's flash drive.
There are several ways to get maps for GPS-navigators. The simplest is to purchase a device where they are already pre-installed. This is a fairly common practice and, it is worth acknowledging, effective. Having bought such a solution, you can be sure that everything will work without failures and various incompatibilities. You can also buy a license program "Navitel" and a map of Russia directly on the developer's website for only 800 r.
The next option is to download the corresponding files from the Internet. The source can act as a developer's site, and third-party resources. Files nm7 (new version) should be placed in NavitelContent / Maps.
Activation of satellite tracking
It is not enough to download maps and run the program. The device must necessarily have a connection with the navigation satellites. In most highly specialized navigators, the GPS function is always activated. But communicators require the inclusion of this feature. In the systems "Android" you need to lower the shutter and click on the image of the satellite - GPS.
Satellites
After the navigation program is initialized, a dialog box will be displayed allowing the user to decide whether to use the Internet service for the current traffic congestion state. This is a very useful feature, however for its operation it is necessary to connect to the Network, which is not always possible.
Among not very successful models, we can mention the Prestigio GeoVision 350, which has a too shaky connector for an external antenna. Also "famous" Mio C520, not responding quickly enough to change the direction of movement. And, finally, judging by the reviews, the BBK N3501 discharges the battery too quickly. The same can be said about Chrome 1010, eating a minute's charge for 40.
Of the good worth mentioning Garmin Dakota 20 - lightweight, small size, download updates, support for flash drives. Also excellent solutions are iMap and iTrex20. In general, the most common indicator is the cost of the device. Gross prices are an occasion to think about the quality and efficiency of the navigator.
Define the starting point
After the satellite signal is registered, the data is coordinated and a dot appears on the displayed map - the current position of the device. Depending on a number of factors, an error of several tens of meters is possible. From this moment, you can start to make the desired path. Since this stage is very important, it is recommended to provide the device with reliable communication with the satellite, at least for the first time coming out of the shelter (roof), or to install it at the window itself.
Direct Instruction
There are several ways to get directions to Navitel. The simplest of them is to specify the start and end points of the path. In the desired location of the card, you need to put a mark (most convenient if the device supports touch input) and click the "Cursor" button in the bottom menu displayed. Next, "stretch" the terrain to the destination and put one more mark. Below you will see the name of the street and the button "Let's go".
Additional opportunity
However, it is not enough just to know how to navigate the route to Navitel. This navigation program has another great opportunity - to calculate the estimated time of arrival based on the speed of travel. To do this, click on the menu button (in new versions, three parallel white strips on a green background) and select the "Route" item. The screen will display a screen showing the time for the road, the distance and the remaining route. In addition, you can visually assess how much is passed. It is recommended to use this feature - in many cases it is irreplaceable.
Exact instructions
The next method, which is most often used by those who are just learning how to navigate the route to Navitel, is to directly indicate the destination. Very often it is known where to go, up to the number of the house, the entrance and the floor. In this case, you need to click on the "Menu" button and select "Route" to route the route. Further everything is quite simple.
If you want to fuel the car, eat it yourself, withdraw money from the ATM or something else, then you need to choose not the item "At the address" but the "Nearest - Cursor". The path to the indicated institution will be laid.
Making the settings
Before using the navigation program, it is recommended to make certain adjustments to the algorithm of its operation. Pressing "Menu", you need to proceed to "Settings" and select "Navigation". Here you need to specify the mode of transport; Decide whether it is permissible to drive on dirt roads and make a choice in favor of short or reliable routes. In the section "Online services" you can configure automatic updates, synchronization and other services that require access to the Internet. Do not ignore the possibility of making adjustments.
Saving path
Sometimes it becomes necessary to make the path by which the movement was performed, available during other sessions. "Navitel" allows you to implement this. If the program is closed while the vehicle is moving, after restarting the program, it will be offered to continue driving on the previously indicated route or to refuse it.
And, finally, we can not help saying how to save the route to Navitel by direct recording. At the beginning of the movement, you need to click on the image of the cassette, which activates the saving of the track. On arrival, pressing again deactivates the recording. On the map there will be a strip of purple color - a route.
Gemini, and such different
New versions of the Navitel program are constantly appearing. Some opportunities disappear, and in return they are offered updated. The management methods on the systems "Android" and Win CE, let a little, but differ. Maps of different versions are incompatible with each other. Thus, there is no universal solution to any problem related to the navigation program.
