Troubleshooting
This section presents some possible causes for common problems
|
map2hand application will not start up
|
Device is not running at least version 4.0 of PalmOS
|
|
Maps are not listed on the initial screen
|
In order to list the maps, the "Maps..." button must be tapped.
If maps are stored on the expansion card, they must be in a directory
called /Palm/programs/map2hand/maps
Maps have not been converted to map2hand format (use the MapMaker.jar desktop application)
|
|
Map is not shown on the screen when "View" is selected
|
Map has been converted at the wrong resolution. If you have a low-resolution (160x160)
device, then maps converted at high-resolution will not be visible.
|
|
Display is stuck on "Closing map file" after completing calibration
|
The map is being written back to the expansion card. This can take some time with slow cards.
|
|
GPS position is not displayed on the map
|
Baud rate for serial (non-bluetooth) GPS device is not correct
Current location is not on the map
Map is incorrectly calibrated
GPS device is not able to obtain a position fix
|
|
GPS position is not displayed accurately
|
Map calibration is inaccurate
Calibration points are too close together
Map covers too large an area for calibration to be accurate across the
entire map
Map is not a true representation of the area in question. Many road maps only show
approximate positions of the roads, and are not intended to be accurate when used with GPS devices.
