9. Use routes from the route list
9.1 For the time being , only pre- recorded routes can be used .
9.2 On the home page, choose START ROUTE.
9.3 Select the route you want to walk from the route list and wait for the message
that the GPS signal is sufficient to start. If you are still inside, go outside .
9.4 If you are not in the immediate vicinity of the departure point of the route, you
will be notified . You will therefore not receive route instructions . Make sure
you get close to the starting point of the route and then start the route again .
9.5 With enough GPS signal you hear and feel the assignment to walk. The tactile
arrow gives the indication to go 'forwards' .
9.6 Going for a walk always means that you are following a roadway , sidewalk or
footpath . Only when you are moving, the program can determine your
direction and give instructions. If you walk in the wrong direction, it will be
noticed and corrected.
9.7 Following the route,, the program will limit the directions to points where a
decision is made about the to follow direction.
So those are always points where multiple directions are possible. You may not
always be aware of this. The tactile arrow + audio alerts you to this. Side streets
are also indicated in this way, even if the route goes straight ahead. You will
then be aware of the upcoming crossing or perhaps a side street on the other
side of the road.
9.8 When the tactile arrow is at 12 o'clock, it always means that you are going
straight ahead. You should not take that too literally. Straight ahead means that
the road or footpath you have taken must be followed, even if this road is
curvy.
The tactile arrow does not correct for directional changes on the
sidewalk or footpath, that would be the tactile arrow make you very restless .
So stay focused on following the chosen road and the traffic on it, only at
intersections or junctions will the
navigation function active again.
9.9 The tactile arrow announces directional changes early with momentary
rotational movements corresponding to the direction to be followed. For
example, a left turn is announced with a double rotational movement to the
left and a turn to right with a double turn to the right. In all cases, the tactile
arrow returns to 12 noon, since the real decision point (intersection) has not
yet been reached.
9.10 Pre Warnings are given (audio + tactile arrow ) on about 30 meters away from
the actual decision point, the precise distance also depends on the GPS signal.
This is far enough to be able to prepare, for example, to choose the right side
and
mostly short enough to prevent confusion with intermediate footpaths or
driveways.
