Detour Options (Vehicle Navigation only)
The Magellan CrossoverGPS detects when you are on a route and you are moving slowly or
not moving at all on a freeway. It then provides you with the option of detouring around
the problem area. It can alert you visually on the map by displaying the detour icon or you
can set it to not alert you and you’ll select detour from the main menu.
3 mi / 5 mi / 10 mi or Custom:
This setting determines the distance that detour
will take you around. (If you are on stopped on a freeway and select to detour, the
Magellan CrossoverGPS will calculate the detour and try to get you back on the
original route in the distance specified.)
Enable automatic detour:
This defines if the detour icon will be shown on the map
when the Magellan CrossoverGPS determines that a detour should be used.
Alert After:
This sets the duration that you are stopped or moving slowly on the
freeway before a detour icon is displayed.
Example:
Settings of ‘3 mi’, ’Enable automatic detour’ on, and ‘Alert After’ set to
1 min. You are being routed on a freeway and have been moving at 10 mph due to
a traffic jam ahead. After 1 minute of moving slowly, the detour icon will be
displayed on the left side of the map indicating that a detour should be used. If
you want to activate the detour, press MENU and select ‘Detour’. Press ‘Route’
and the Magellan CrossoverGPS will calculate a new route, detouring around the
next 3 miles.
Simulator Mode (Vehicle Navigation only)
This option provides a way to set the Magellan CrossoverGPS into simulation mode. In
simulation mode you can create a route and observe the Magellan CrossoverGPS in action
as it simulates travelling along the route.
Simulation:
Check “Propose simulator mode when calculating a route.” to turn the
simulator on. When on, you will be asked each time you create a route if you want
it to be simulated.
Menu Colors
The Magellan CrossoverGPS has four color schemes built in; Default, Pastel, Forest and
Desert.
