system puts you on the wrong street. It is also the location saved in the track log
(Page 48).
Note: The Lock-on-Road feature can be turned off in Advanced settings (Page 77)
for pedestrian use. When switched off, the arrow is displayed where the blue dot
would be with active Lock-on-Road.
When the GPS position is lost, the arrow turns gray, but the journey continues on the
recommended route for a short period of time with the speed last detected before the
GPS position was lost. When the next route event is reached, or after 40 seconds,
the arrow stops, and remains gray until GPS reception returns. This way short
tunnels can be crossed without losing the position.
4.3.7 Selected map point, also known as the Cursor
If you tap the map somewhere or select a specific item in Find, it will become the
selected point on the map, marked with a small red dot and permanently radiating
red circles to make it conspicuous at all zoom levels, even when it is in the
background of a 3D map view. You can use this point as starting point, via point, or
destination of your route, you can search for a POI near to it, mark it with a drawing-
pin, or save it as a POI. The cursor, when visible, is also the reference point for map
scaling.
Note: When your GPS position is available, and Lock-to-Position (Page 32) is active,
the cursor is the current GPS position, the blue arrow. When you select another point
by tapping the map, or using the Main menu (Using the Main menu), the new Cursor
is shown on the display with the red dot and the radiating red circles.
4.3.8 Marked map points (Pin)
The Cursor can be marked with a Pin. Pins are shown as being stuck in the map. A
Pin is visible at all zoom levels and remains in its position until you unpin it, or delete
all Pins in Advanced settings (Page 78).
The color of the Pin is automatically selected by N.I.C.E 430. Different colors help
you identify a Pin in the History list (Page 86) later. There they are shown together
with their address and GPS Coordinates.
Tip: A quick way to tell the coordinates of a location you found on the map is to Pin it,
and then look for the coordinates in the History list (Page 86).This way you also save
