and the StellarTrek will return to exploring the environment. If the Confirm button is not pressed,
the route will remain activated.
3.8 Getting Guidance to a Landmark
The StellarTrek can provide guidance instructions from the current user location to a selected
landmark chosen as a destination. Guidance instructions are similar to those provided by the
StellarTrek when following a pre-established route.
Turn instructions are adjusted to pedestrian or motorized navigation. Turn instructions for motorized
navigation are calculated according to the “quickest route” criteria. Routes calculated for motorized
use favor highways and other streets that may not be suitable for pedestrian travel. Turn
instructions for pedestrian navigations are intended to provide the shortest route possible.
To have the StellarTrek guide you to a landmark:
1. Press the Go To button. This will take you to the list of landmarks you can use as possible
destination.
2. Use the Left and Right arrows to select the landmark of your choice. A vocal description
of each landmark is heard.
3. By default, a route will be followed into Pedestrian mode. If, however, you wish to follow a
route in Motorized mode, use the Up or Down arrow to select the option Motorized mode.
4. Press the Confirm button to start receiving instructions on the direction to take to begin
your route.
If you are in an open area and heading towards a landmark that is also in an open area, the
StellarTrek will guide you in a straight line towards it. It will give you an indication of its relative
distance and heading. The StellarTrek will inform you when you reach your landmark and the route
will be deactivated.
If the StellarTrek detects that you are deviating from your path, the device will warn you and you
will be prompted to press the Confirm button to be guided back to your original route. Once you
come back to your route, the device will restart giving the navigation instructions.
IMPORTANT: Effective guidance relies on the quality of the positioning (point of origin and
landmarks). Always make sure that street positions are not mapped in open areas, and that open
areas are not mapped on the street network.
You may cancel guidance instruction at any point by pressing the Back button. You will be asked
to confirm. If the Confirm button is not pressed, the route will remain activated.
