SECTION 3: Installation & Map Downloading 3.1 Ostia Application Installation Installation of Ostia software requires that Microsoft ActiveSync (Windows CE Services) be installed on your desktop computer. If not, please follow the instructions in the section called "Installing Windows CE Services to Communicate with a Desktop Computer" in your Pocket PC’s user guide. Note: ActiveSync is not included with the Ostia software. To install Ostia software:

Page 7 1. Insert the CD-ROM.

Desktop Storage 2. If Auto Start is enabled for your CD- Software for card folder Wi ndow CE ROM, the Setup program will run PDA 1 automatically. If not, run the Setup 2 program on the CD-ROM.

Serial Cable 3. Follow the on-screen instructions. You r Ostia Docking Station Computer CD-ROM 4. Once Ostia installation has Figure 1 completed, you will need to install maps before you may begin using the software.

3.2 Installing & Viewing Maps – The MapFinder Utility Overview – MapFinder is an all-in-one utility that allows you to search for maps anywhere in the country, select the map or group of maps you wish to download, then download the selected maps to your PC, Pocket PC or any storage media attached in either device. MapFinder allows you to select from a visual map, or select maps by entering city, county or zip code. MapFinder also allows you to view a map before you download it, and check to see if a specific address, point of interest, street, or intersection is contained within the selected map.

Page 8 The MapFinder’s capabilities can be divided into four categories: Selecting maps – Gives you the ability to specify the map or maps that you wish to download or view; Downloading maps – Gives you the ability to download maps to your PC, Pocket PC or storage card; Viewing maps – Allows you to view a map on your PC; Utilities – Tools that allow you to manage your map files. This section will contain step-by-step directions for the major functions within all four areas. Before starting to download maps, however, it is recommended that you review the “Usage Tips” section below. 3.2.1 MapFinder – Usage Tips QUICK TIP! The fastest, most efficient way to download a map to your Pocket PC: Use MapFinder to copy it to a CF or SD card inserted into your PC, then remove the card and insert into your Pocket PC.

Page 9 Follow Steps 3.3.1 & 3.4.1

Using this chapter of the user guide: To download maps, use: Section 3.3 to select the maps to be downloaded, then use Section 3.4 to pick the destination for the downloaded maps Other key features are: Section 3.5 tells you how to view maps on your PC Section 3.6 tells you how to use some MapFinder utilities. Multiple Map Downloading Methodologies: You can download maps onto your PC, onto storage media within your PC, directly from the Pharos CD-ROMs onto your Pocket PC or directly from CD-ROMs onto storage media inserted into your Pocket PC. Each method has its advantages: 1) Downloading maps onto storage media inserted into your PC – This is the fastest method to get maps from Page 10 the Pharos CD-ROMs onto your Pocket PC. This involves simply copying the maps from the CD-ROMs onto a CompactFlash (CF) or Secure Digital (SD) card, removing the card from your PC and inserting it into your Pocket PC. 2) Downloading maps directly to your Pocket PC internal memory or onto storage media inserted into your Pocket PC – This is the simplest method to get maps onto your Pocket PC, but there are two issues to keep in mind. First, most Pocket PCs come with limited internal memory, so you may want to monitor this resource carefully. Secondly, because of the connection speed between your Pocket PC and your PC, it can take quite a few minutes to download maps onto any storage resource located on your Pocket PC. 3) Downloading (or extracting) maps onto your PC – Gives you maximum flexibility using the MapFinder utility when you are trying to find cities, download single or groups of maps to your Pocket PC, or view maps without having to stop and insert the Pharos map CD- ROMs. Some users choose to download the entire map

Page 11 database to their PC; this function can be completed in one easy step. Navigating the MapFinder display: The MapFinder display allows you to easily use the full function of the program by simply pointing and clicking your mouse. Pharos provides step- by-step instructions on using the key functions later in this manual, but the diagram below provides an explanation of the screen layout:

SECTION 6: Tips on Getting Started Try the following exercise to develop and practice your map skills • Set your home as a route origin. • Set the nearest friend’s home as a route destination. • Find the route between your home and friend’s home • Enable Simulation Mode to experience car navigation virtually.

SECTION 7: GPS (optional) Two ultra compact, lightweight, integrated types of GPS receiver (iGPS-180 and iGPS-CF) are available from Pharos as an option. The iGPS receivers feature rapid positioning, instant reacquisition, low power consumption, and a water resistant enclosure.

Page 66 1. Place the iGPS-180 receiver on the PDA dashboard of the i GPS-180 vehicle close to the windshield. 2. Plug the cigarette lighter adaptor into the lighter socket of your vehicle. 3. Plug the serial adaptor Adaptor Serial Junction cable into the Pocket Adaptor Box PC’s serial port socket. Cable Cigarette Lighter Adaptor Figure 5

Page 67 iGPS-CF 1. Insert the iGPS-CF into the CompactFlash Card port of the Pocket PC. If the Pocket PC has a PCMCIA port, attach the PCMCIA adapter to the iGPS-CF and insert it into the port.

Page 68 IGPS-280

There are 3 (three) different set up configurations that the iGPS-280 can do. 1) CompactFlash Mode 1. Insert the iGPS-280 into the Compact Flash slot of the Pocket PC.

2. The Universal Car Power Adapter can also be used while in a vehicle to supply power to the Pocket PC and GPS.

Page 69 2) Compact Flash Extended Antenna Mode 1. Detach the iGPS-280 receiver from the base.

2. Attach the CF extension cable between the iGPS- 280 and the base. 3. Insert the iGPS-280 base into the Compact Flash slot of the Pocket PC.

4. The Universal Car Power Adapter can also be used while in a vehicle to supply power to the Pocket PC and GPS.

Page 70 3) Serial Attach Mode

1. Detach the iGPS-280 receiver from the base.

2. Connect the Serial Extension Cable to the Serial Cable specifically for your PDA.

3. Connect the Serial Cable to your Pocket PC’s serial port and connect the Universal Car Power Adapter.

Page 71 7.3 Using GPS The map sample (Figure 6) shows the driving route (blue path) and the iGPS receiver indicator (red arrow). The arrowhead indicates the direction of travel. 2 (two) steps are required to use an iGPS receiver with Ostia software. 1. Connect the iGPS receiver to your Pocket PC using the instructions in section 7.2. 2. Enable the iGPS receiver function. (See section 5.1.4) As you travel, the iGPS receiver constantly monitors incoming signals from the GPS satellites, calculates your present position Figure 6 and updates the GPS symbol on your map.

Page 72 iGPS-CF™ User’s Tips

1. Turn on your iGPS-CF™ in an open place. 2. Stay still for approximately one minute for your iGPS- CF™ to initially acquire enough satellites to give you an accurate position. It may take longer if you are moving. 3. If the satellite signals cannot be found (for instance, in an urban area), the following steps are suggested: a. If you are in a car, plug the external active antenna into iGPS-CF™ and place the antenna as close to the windshield as possible or on the roof. b. Move to an open space or point iGPS-CF™ toward an open sky with less blockages. 4. iGPS-CF™ comes with a built-in battery for faster position acquisition. The battery lasts about 4 days. Please recharge the battery for about 4 hours regularly. 5. Please have PDA recharged when either the COM port or iGPS-CF™ is not recognized by the PDA due to low battery problem in PDA. 6. Handle the MMCX connector carefully (hold the metal part not the cable) when plug or unplug the active antenna. 7. Do not leave the unit under the sun for a long period of time. 8. iGPS-CF™ receiver’s performance may be affected by: a. Tinted metallic windows b. Under high raised buildings, bridges, or in tunnels c. Near high voltage cables, CB radios, or radio base stations d. CD ROM player
