Switches
When a function can only have two values
(mainly Enabled and Disabled), a switch is
used. Unlike with list selectors, the horizon-
tal line contains the name of the function
and not the actual status. There is a lamp
on the left to show whether the function is
active or not.
When the lamp is dark , the function is not
selected. When it is lit , the function is en-
abled. The whole strip works as a button.
Touch anywhere to toggle between the en-
abled and disabled status.
Special switches
Some switches behave differently. Instead
of being dark when not selected, the light
turns red and the lamp becomes crossed
outto emphasize the prohibition of use.
Furthermore the switches used for the
road types (to be included or avoided when
planning a route) on the Route Parameters
screen cannot be changed for some vehi-
cle types. When such a vehicle is selected,
not only the lamp but also the whole line
becomes inactive and dark.
These switches look different on a square
display. The lamp is placed not left of the
label but below it, and its shape is also dif-
ferent.
Use these buttons the same way as you
would other switches. Touch them any-
where to toggle between the enabled and
disabled states.
Switches in the Quick menu
The switches of the Quick menu behave
as normal switches. Touch the button to
toggle between the enabled and disabled
states.
Virtual keyboards
Cydle is designed in a way that you only
need to enter letters or numbers when it
is inevitable. In these cases a full screen
keyboard pops up that can easily be oper-
ated with your fi ngertips. You can choose
between a separate ABC and numeric key-
pad, or a set of QWERTY-type keyboards
that contain both letters and numbers. Cy-
dle will remember your last choice and of-
fer it the next time you need to enter data.
The alphabetic keyboards in Cydle do not
contain special characters, because you do
not need to enter accents when searching
for a destination. Type only the base letters
(the letter most similar to the accented one)
and Cydle will search for all their combina-
tions in the database (e.g. for the French
street ‘Cité Bergère ’ you only need to type
‘Cite Bergere’, and the rest is done by the
program).
When you type in POI or track log names,
Cydle will automatically turn all initials into
capitals to create names that look pleas-
ant.
ABC-Type Keyboards
These keyboards contain only letters (Lat-
in, Hebraic, Greek or Cyrillic). If you wish
to enter numbers, you need to touch the
Keys ( ) button to switch to the numeric
keyboard.
Use Backspace (arrow pointing left be-
tween Space and Keys) to delete the last
letter you have entered if you have made a
mistake, touch Space to enter more words,
and hit Done to fi nish entering the text.
This type of keyboard has large, fi nger-
friendly buttons.
NOTE: If you have chosen a program lan-
guage that uses Latin letters, only the ABC
keyboard appears. If you choose the Greek
language, an additional keyboard appears
with Greek letters. Similarly Hebraic and
Cyrillic letters are available when Hebrew
or Russian is chosen in Setup / Languages.
If you are used to computer keyboards, you
may consider trying one of the QWERTY-
type keypads.
QWERTY-type keyboards
QWERTY-type keyboards have both let-
ters and numbers on them. Their layout
is the same as of the standard QWERTY,
