4.7.3 Route tab

This menu contains options to manage different settings in the program.

4.7.3.1 Recalculate

This menu point is only available if an active route exists and GPS position is

present.

It brings up a menu with four options. Using one of these functions you can modify

the current route.

Recalculate

This function repeats the route calculation based on the same settings as used

to calculate previously. This possibility is typically used when automatic off-route

recalculation is disabled. However you may consider using it when you travel on a

road parallel to that recommended by the route. In this case Uniden Navigation may

not recalculate the route for some time, but you can force recalculation here. This is

also the button you will most frequently use when the window appears automatically,

provided that the manual route recalculation is set (Page 57).

Drop Next Via Point / Delete Route

You can modify the route to skip the next via point if you decide it is no longer needed.

For example, you may have added the via point only to influence the route but you

do not want to actually reach it; or you have already almost reached it, and Uniden

Navigation still keeps on navigating towards that point. When there are no via points

left (only the destination), the name of this button turns to Delete Route, and it

cancels the navigation.

Bypass

When you run into a traffic jam or roadblock, you may want to have Uniden Navigation

calculate a route that departs the original route as soon as it can. You will need to select the

minimum distance along the original route where your new route is allowed to rejoin

the original route. Select the one you feel appropriate for the traffic difficulty you

face.
