4.1.6 Speed limit warning
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. NX405E is able
to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your
region, or may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.
The maximum speed set in the vehicle profile (page 71) is also used for this warning. NX405E
alerts you if you exceed the pre-set value even if the legal speed limit is higher.
Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Warnings. See page 75.
You can also set the relative speed tolerance above which the application initiates the
warning.
The following warning types are available:
•
Audio warning: You receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the
given percentage.
•
Visual warning: The current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it (for
example
).
You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.
4.1.7 Real-time traffic
Real-time traffic information can provide you with the current status of the traffic. Route
calculation can avoid road blocks or unexpected traffic jams caused by an accident.
The following data sources are available:
•
Traffic Message Channel (TMC):
TMC is a specific application of the FM Radio Data System (RDS) used for
broadcasting real-time traffic and weather information.
If public Traffic data is broadcast at your location, NX405E automatically searches the
FM radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded information is immediately used in
route planning.
Note!
TMC is not a global service. It may not be available in your country or region. Ask
your local dealer for coverage details.
The application automatically takes account of the traffic events received. You do not need to
set anything in NX405E.
When NX405E receives traffic information that may affect your route, it warns you that it is
recalculating the route. The navigation continues with a new optimal route considering the
most up-to-date traffic conditions.
For information on traffic icons, see page 19.
To fine-tune this service, you have the following options in Traffic settings (page 79):
•
Set the minimum amount of time that you think is worth saving at the cost of a detour.
•
Instruct NX405E to have you confirm the new planned route before it takes effect.
Note!
If there are traffic events on the planned route that the application has not
bypassed, the
icon opens the list of significant traffic events to let you quickly
check them.
