2 General information
XROAD is a navigation system optimized for in-car use. It provides door-to-door
navigation for both single and multi-point routes using adaptable route parameters.
XROAD is capable of planning routes throughout the whole installed map set. Unlike
some other products, XROAD does not require that you change maps or switch to a
poorly detailed general map to navigate between map segments or countries. You
always have complete freedom to go wherever you wish. Just select your destination
and go.
You do not need a stylus to use XROAD. All screen buttons and controls are
designed so that you can operate them with your fingertips.
You can access all functions of the program by using hardware and screen buttons.
With the help of these buttons you can travel through all the screens of the program.
Most of the screens (especially menu functions and settings) can be accessed from
several other screens, minimizing the number of actions needed to reach the desired
function.
When using XROAD, you do not need to ‘double tap’ or ‘tap & hold’ the touch screen
as these functions cannot be used reliably in a moving vehicle. A single tap triggers
most of the screen controls. The only exceptions are ‘drag & drop’ for moving the
map, or scaling it in Map mode (Page 32).
Most of the screens have a Return button
in the top left corner. This arrow
returns to the previous screen or directly to one of the map screens.
Settings screens also have a Help button
in the top right corner. This will show
a detailed description of the current settings screen.
