Using Que Turns
QueTurns is an application that can show you a list of turn-by-
turn directions to a destination. The application is active only
when a route is active.
Use QueTurns to:
• View the turns you will take while navigating the route.
• View the Turn Preview for an individual turn.
To open the QueTurns Application:
There are three methods for accessing QueTurns.
• Press the Hard key you have assigned to QueTurns.
• Use the Left or Right Arrow keys to cycle through the
Que applications until you reach QueTurns
• Use the Applications Launcher and tap the QueTurns
icon.
If you are actively navigating a route, a list of turns that you
will take while navigating that route is displayed.
Each turn entry provides a direction arrow showing the
direction to turn and the distance to that turn, plus written
instructions. The time to the next turn is displayed at the top
right of each turn entry and the time of day which you will
reach that turn is displayed at the lower right of each turn entry.
Tapping a turn on the list displays a ‘Turn Preview’ page for
that turn.
PDA Low-Power Mode
When your PDA is linked with the remote GPS receiver and
connected to external power, the PDA remains on. However,
when your PDA is using its battery, it enters a low-power
mode and the display turns off after the time set for auto-off
expires. When you are actively navigating a route, you can
still hear voice prompts and see Turn Preview pages display
before each turn in the route. If your PDA includes an LED,
it flashes occasionally, while in low-power mode, to indicate
communication with the GPS receiver.
Pressing the Power button when in low-power mode turns the
PDA on. Pressing the Power button when the display is on turns
the PDA off.
If the connection between the GPS and PDA is lost, both units
auto-power off at the end of their pre-set time out periods.
When the “Connect to GPS” preference is enabled and your
PDA is turned on, it attempts to connect to the GPS receiver.
To disable the connection, use the drop-down menu for any
Que application and select “Disconnect from GPS.” To cause
the PDA to re-connect with the GPS receiver, you must once
again enable the “Connect to GPS” preference, using the Que
applications drop-down menus. If the connection has been
disabled for more than fifteen minutes, you must also turn the
GPS receiver back on.
You can also adjust the “Connect to GPS” preferrence from the
GPS preferences application.
