4.1.10.5 Roads in the route excluded by your preferences
Although you can choose whether to include or avoid some road types in Route
parameter settings (Page 42), sometimes they are impossible to avoid near the
starting point, via points or the destination.
If so, V7 Navigation will display those segments of the route with an alternate color.
4.2 GPS Data screen
Tap the small satellite dish icon on the map screen to open this window.
The GPS Data screen is a collection of information received from the GPS device.
4.2.1 GPS data displayed
The virtual sky on the left represents the currently visible part of the sky above you,
with your position as the center. The satellites are shown at their current positions.
The GPS receives data from both the green and yellow satellites. Signals from the
yellow satellites are only received, while green ones are used by the GPS to
calculate your current location. The more satellites your GPS tracks (the green
ones), the better your calculated position will be.
Additional pieces of information on this screen are: current position in
latitude/longitude format, elevation, speed, date, time and calculated accuracy.
Note: Accuracy can be affected by several factors the GPS cannot take into account.
Use this accuracy information only as estimation.
There are two icons on the left to show the status of the GPS connection and the
quality of reception.
