iv WARNING! A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION. CAUTION When showing turn-by-turn navigation data, a GPS unit will show the shortest, most direct route to the destination. There are times when it may give directions, such as a U-turn, that may be prohib- ited in some locations.
1 Preface: Introducing GPS And, how this manual can get you out on the road, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of tu rn-by-turn GPS navigation. Before you grab the iWAY 250c ™ GPS unit and begin i.
2 How Lowrance GPS and the GPS System Work You will navigate a little easier if you understand the basics of how the iWAY scans the sky to show you where you are and where you are go- ing. You will use the iWAY's touch screen to enter commands and control its functions.
3 Section 1: Installation & Accessories This section describes the various accessories and cables that came with your iWAY and exactly how to use them.
4 NOTE: When operating on external power the iWAY is designed to enter a Standby mode if the external power source fails. For full details see the discussion of power button functions in Section 4. External Power and Standby Mode The iWAY has an optional Standby Mode (on by default) which allows the unit to conserve power while no t in use.
5 The RAA-5 external antenna for the iWAY ™ 250c. The GPS antenna module can be mounted to any flat surface. The magnetic back allows the antenna module to be used on almost any steel surface. USB-to-PC Cable Connection The iWAY comes with a cable designed to allow you to copy files from your computer to the iWAY's MMC or SD Card.
6 card containing mapping data is removed the unit's map m ode will not work. You must have the MMC card with the mapping data in the unit for map mode to work.
7 The iWAY 250c ™ shown with the optional protective face cover. Use a microfiber towel to clean the unit’s screen. The microfiber towel also is an optional accessory avail able on the lei-extras web site. Or check your local retailer as they ar e often available where shop towels or auto cleaning towels are sold.
8 Moving On: iWAY Operation Now that you have installed your iWAY it's time to find out how it works. The following section jumps ri ght into a description of Mapping Mode Operation which will tell you everything you need to know about the iWAY's moving map and the various settings on the map display.
9 Section 2: Mapping Mode Operation This section addresses the unit's Mapping Mode operation. Mapping Mode includes all navigation featur es from finding the nearest restau- rant to plotting a road trip across the country. Before you turn the unit on it's a good idea to learn about the different menus and how they work together.
10 Since the iWAY screen responds to pressure, with practice, you will learn exactly the right amount of pr essure to operate the touch screen controls. Buttons are easy while s crollbars can be a little more chal- lenging. NOTE: From time to time you may notice a slight delay between pressing an on-screen button and seeing the iWAY respond.
11 The iWAY Main Menu. Map and Music Use the Map and Music buttons to change the iWAY’s mode. Map Mode shows your current position on a moving map as well as information concerning your current route. Mu sic Mode allows you to choose the audio play list, adjust volume and se t various play controls.
12 Map Mode Practice Run Start with the iWAY installed in your car. You should start out navigat- ing to a destination you are already familiar with. Don't be too sur- prised if the iWAY suggests a different route than you would take. Try the iWAY's route.
13 The Map Mode Display and On-Screen Commands The Map Mode screen shows your current position and route from a "bird's-eye" view. By default the iWAY shows the map in a 3D view. This can be changed if you would pref er to see the map from a different perspective.
14 on this slider to quickly adjust the volume. For more information on sound options see the heading "Sound and Voice Setup" in Section 4. Using the Map Display Toolbar The map display toolbar buttons are us ed with the touch screen to con- trol what part of the map you see.
15 screen. When the box contains all th e area you want to see lift the sty- lus and the map display will zoom in. If you are starting at a very wide zoom, Zoom Box can be an extrem ely helpful way of narrowing down your view to exactly the area you are interested in.
16 est such as a restaurant, gas station, a contact that you have saved or a map location that you would like to visit. The Location Information Screen will include as much information as possible about the location that you ha ve selected.
17 An Edit Contact screen will appear with a textbox containing the con- tact's name, address and phone number. You can choose to leave the address and phone number fields blank but any information you add to them will display whenever you open the Location Information screen for that contact.
18 Editing a Contact You can edit a contact's name, addre ss, phone number, lat/ long or sym- bol by selecting it on the map and pushing the L OCA TION I NFORMA TION but- ton. Choose E DIT from the Location Information Screen. The Edit Contact screen described earlier under "Creating and Saving Contacts" appears.
19 Section 3: Music Mode Operation This section addresses the unit's Music Mode operation. If you would rather skip ahead you can look at Section 4 which is full of details on setting up and customizing the iWAY's various options.
20 The iWAY Main Menu. Map and Music Use the Map and Music buttons to change the iWAY’s mode. Map Mode shows your current position on a moving map as well as information concerning your current route. Mu sic Mode allows you to choose the audio play list, adjust volume and set various play controls.
21 Music Mode Practice Run Start at your computer. You will need some MP3 or Ogg Vorbis music files. If you need help ripping your CDs to these formats consult the documentation for the CD ripper software. 1. Insert an MMC or SD Card in your iWAY and connect the iWAY to your computer as described in the supplemental instruction sheet.
22 The Music Mode Display and On-Screen Commands The Music Mode screen contains a large central area for visualization effects with a set of play control bu ttons along the bottom of the screen.
23 The Music Mode Play Control Buttons. Song Position indicates the playback posi tion for the current song. Whenever a song begins to play the Song Position slider starts at the far left and moves right.
24 Music Browser The iWAY can play both MP3 and Ogg Vorbis music files. It can also recognize m3u-style play list files. Touch the Now Playing area of the Music Mode screen to launch the Browse Music Files screen.

26 Notes.
27 Section 4: Pictures, Gauge and Options Menu Pictures Slideshow The iWAY can display .gif and .jpg images stored on a media card. To open the Photos Slideshow select the P ICTURES option located at the bot- tom left of the Main Menu. You can choose to play the images as a slideshow or pause on a single image.
28 Close Slideshow returns the iWAY to the Main Menu. Zoom In enlarges the image currently displayed, zooming in on the center of the display. You can press and drag anywhere within the im- age display to focus on a particular area.
29 The following pages describe each of the Options Menus. All of these op- tions come with default values so you can use the iWAY right out of the box. That way you may never need to make changes. You might want to skip on to Section 5 to learn more about searching for destinations and generating routes.
30 When active the Auto Zoom takes control any time the map cursor is not showing. When the map cursor is up you can use the Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons to control the zoom leve l. When the map cursor is cleared from the screen Auto Zoom will automa tically recalculate the zoom level.
31 Route Via Waypoints While the iWAY is designed to genera te a route from your current posi- tion all the way to a chosen destination, sometimes you will want more control over where you are going. The Route Via Waypoints command allows you to access the Routes list menu where you can store and manage routes you have created.
32 cific location and begin to genera te a route. Select either the F ROM M AP button or the F ROM F IND button. If you select F ROM M AP the map will ap- pear. Use the cursor arrow on the map and drag it to a specific location (or address) then select the A DD button.
33 current waypoint and continue on to the next waypoint in the route. Routing Options Routing Options are used to contro l exactly how the iWAY generates a route from your current position to a selected destination. To access these options, from the Options Menu, choose R OUTING O PTIONS .
34 will not avoid cross-traffic turns at major intersections where you will likely have a protected turn at a traffic light. Sometimes you would have to drive miles out of your way to avoid tak- ing a cross-traffic turn somewhere in your route. Then again, some- times it's worth it.
35 A sample Turn Preview screen in 3D mode. As you can see in the previous imag e the Turn Preview screen includes a close-up map of the turn itself and a magenta route line showing your path.
36 Use the Map Categories Drawn screen to customize your map. In this example the category My Trails and subcategory Distances are off. The Map Categories Drawn Menu is divided into two columns, "Cate- gory" and "Subcategory." You can turn any category or subcategory on or off.
37 Trails Menu, showing 5 trails. Trail 3 is the active trail (indicated by the arrow on the right). Trails 1, 4 and 5 are hidden (there is no check mark next to them), but Trails 2 and 3 are shown. From the Trails Menu you can start a new Trail or edit or delete an existing Trail.
38 To disable Safety Mode and switch to Passenger Mode make sure the vehicle is not moving. From the Options Menu choose S A FETY M ODE to toggle whether the option is on or off. The button itself will show its current state. A dialog like the one in the following image appears.
39 Periodic Voice instructions are repeated at set intervals and are in- tended as reminders. Use this slider to adj ust the frequency of Periodic Voice instructions until your iWAY is giving you exactly as much in- formation as you need. To set Voice Volume: Press and drag the blue button on the V OICE V OLUME slider.
40 down list will appear showing all of the available skins. Choose one from the list and the iWAY will display the new skin automatically. Screenshots throughout this manual were taken using the "Default" skin mode. Other skin options will be available on the Lowrance web site in the future.
41 The Touch Screen Calibration menu. Press each of the targets in turn. After the third the screen should be calibrated. The calibration screen will disappear, returning you to the Interface Options menu.
42 To change any of these, from the Options Menu choose U NITS OF M EASURE and the menu shown in the following image will appear. The unit will not automatically update when you trav el to a different time zone. You will need to access the Set Local Time feature and use the up and down arrows to reset the correct local time.
43 These upgrades make the unit perform better or introduce a new fea- ture or function. You can find out what software version is running in your unit by using the Device Info rmation command.
44 WAAS means your GPS is receiving re liable correction signals from the FAA's Wide Area Augmentation Syst em. WAAS is designed for use in aircraft but occasionally terrestrial vehicles can attain a WAAS lock. This is the most accurate position signal available.
45 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 curre nt location then begins moving along the current route as though you are following it.
46 Notes.
47 Section 5: Searching, Finding and Navigating With the exception of the G O T O command in the Location Information screen, the iWAY's search functions all begin by pressing the F IND but- ton on the main menu screen. When the F IND button is selected the first Find menu will appear.
48 Find Address When the A DDRESS button is selected in the first Find menu the Find Address screen will appear. When the S PELL button is selected the Find Address screen with a virtual keyboard will appear. This screen allows you to enter a specific location by name.
49 If you select Spell (left) from the Fi nd Address by City/Zip screen the Find Address by City/Zip keyboard screen (right) will appear. Enter the name of the city or the zip code of the area in which you wish to search. Pressing the Back button will take you to the previous Find Address screen.
50 As mentioned in Section 2, the Location Information screen's G O T O command allows you to generate a route to any point on the map by placing the map cursor at your desired destination. These search op- tions will be explained in the following pages.
51 To find a nearby gas station: 1. Press F IND from the Main Menu to open the first Find menu. 2. Select G AS , AT M S . A screen will appear with a list of gas stations nearest to your current position. Wa it a moment for the unit to finish compiling the list.
52 Using the Name Filter Sometimes a search returns far too many results or maybe just more results than you feel like scrolling through. The Name Filter on the search results list helps you narrow down the list to just those items containing a particular set of letters.
53 tion to your own position or to some other part of town. R ig ht n o w w e are just trying to get to the gas station so choose G O T O . The iWAY will gen- erate a route from your current position, or last known position if it doesn't have a satellite lock, to the selected destination.
54 Pages 2 and 3 of the Find Menu. In addition to these subcategories, pages 2 and 3 provide a Find Intersections option and an RV Parks/Services menu. Intersections The Intersection command in the third Find menu will let you navigate to any street intersection stored on the iWAY's hard drive.
55 Choosing New Destinations while Navigating So far we have explained some of the ways the iWAY generates a route. No matter which method you use the iWAY responds in the same way. It begins examining the roads between your current position and your selected destination.
56 The iWAY clearly indicates every turn in a generated route. Push the Location Information button while a turn dot is selected and the Turn Preview Screen for that turn will immediately appear. It's easy to make the iWAY generate a route. It's a little harder to describe exactly how you should use that information.
57 Turn Preview allows you to leave yo ur current position and focus more closely on a turn in the route ahead. A closer zoom range and large-font data boxes will appear to help you see exactly what the road conditions are ahead.
