GPS Simulator
The iWAY offers a GPS Simulator option allowing it to simulate the
navigation of a route. When you turn on the Simulator the iWAY pre-
tends it has a GPS lock at the current location then begins moving
along the current route as though you are following it.
This feature can be handy when the iWAY recommends a route you
have never traveled before letting you preview the whole way from
your start to your destination. Four play control buttons in the bottom
left of the screen allow you to control the simulator.
Use the
R
EVERSE
button to move backwards along the route. Stop or re-
sume motion along the route using the
P
LAY
/ P
AUSE
button or speed up
simulation by pressing
F
ORWARD
.
To stop following the current route and return to your starting location
press Stop. The iWAY will remain in Simulator Mode until you turn it
off in the Options Menu. To turn off Simulator Mode choose GPS Simu-
lator from the Options Menu.
NOTE:
If you are in Simulator mode while driving and reach a speed of
about 15 miles per hour or greater, and the unit acquires a satellite
lock, the unit will leave Simulator mode. If the unit does not have
satellite lock it will prompt you to simulate when you begin to
navigate a route. If the prompt is ignored for 20 seconds the unit
will assume you do not wish to simulate a route.
