Operating the Jensen NVX227 Touch and Go Navigator

Operating the Jensen NVX227 Touch and Go Navigator  

You do not need a stylus to use Touch & Go Navigator. All screen buttons and controls are designed so that you can operate them with your fingertips. When using Touch & Go Navigator, 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 (4.5.6).

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.

Hardware buttons
Hardware buttons are mostly used on map screens to zoom, tilt and rotate the map, or to open other screens. In addition you can use the direction buttons and Enter on list screens to make your selection.

Tilt up and down
This function modifies the vertical view angle of the map in 3D mode. Touch & Go Navigator offers a wide range of view angles starting from a top down view (a seamlessly integrated 2D view) down to a flat view that lets you see far ahead. The automatic Smart Zoom function will do the necessary tilting for you when navigating (gives a flat view if the next turn is at a distance to let you see far ahead and raises the angle when approaching a turn to give you a better view of the upcoming maneuver). If you manually change the view angle, Smart Zoom will no longer tilt the map by itself (automatic zooming and rotating remains active). You need to press Enter, or tap the Lock button (4.5.4) to return the tilt control to Smart Zoom. You can also set Touch & Go Navigator to do this automatically after a few seconds (5.6.3.3). This hardware button has a screen button equivalent described in 4.5.3.

Zoom in and out
Zoom will change the scale of the map. If you zoom out, you will see a larger part of the map, while zooming in shows a smaller part of the map in more detail. The automatic Smart Zoom function will do the necessary zooming for you when navigating (zooms out if the next turn is at a distance to let you see far ahead and zooms in when approaching a turn to give you a better view of the upcoming maneuver). If you manually change the zoom level, Smart Zoom will no longer scale the map by itself (automatic tilting and rotating remains active). You need to press Enter, or tap the Lock button (4.5.4) to return the zoom control to Smart Zoom. You can also set Touch & Go Navigator to do this automatically after a few seconds (5.6.3.3).
This hardware button has a screen button equivalent described in 4.5.2.

Rotate left and right
Track-up map orientation (4.5.8) will always rotate the map so its top faces your direction of travel when your GPS position is available. Use these hardware buttons if you need to check something on your left or right. If you rotate the map during navigation, Smart Zoom will still zoom and tilt the map but the automatic rotation (Track-up) will be deactivated, so the map orientation will remain as you set it. You need to press Enter, or tap the Lock button (4.5.4) to
reactivate the automatic map rotation.

Voice instruction announcement
When using either the Map or the Cockpit screen, you can repeat the latest voice instruction by pressing the Enter button.
