Route profiles
Route profiles define the characteristics and special aspects of the
different modes of transport which are to be taken into account when
calculating routes. For example a route profile for bicycles will exclude
motorways from the route calculation but will include roads which other
vehicles are not allowed to use. And different arrival times will be
calculated for a bicycle than for a motorcycle for example.
8.1.1 Route
profile
settings
A route profile is made up of several settings:
►
Speed Profile: Defines the mode of transport (e.g. Bicycle,
Pedestrian, Car, ...).
►
Type of Route: Defines the type of route which is to be calculated
(e.g. Short Route, Fast Route, ...).
►
Consider Traffic Information: defines whether traffic messages are
to be considered when calculating the route
►
Motorways, Ferries, Restricted Areas: Defines whether these types
of road are allowed to be used.
►
Use of Toll Roads: defines whether toll roads are allowed to be
used when calculating the route

Adapt the individual settings to your requirements (Yes, No, Ask
before). (Refer also to Configuring the NAVIGON 25xx on
page 78.)
If you activate the Ask before setting, every time your route can
take a toll road you will be prompted to make the corresponding
setting(s).
For each setting there is a
(Help) button. When you tap on it you
will see an exact definition of the setting in question.
The number of possible settings depends on the selected speed profile.
For example, for the Pedestrian speed profile there are no Motorways
and Use of Toll Roads settings.
