2. Installation and Hardware Setup
2.1 Software Installation
To run the software legally, the user has to get a license key by registration process.
The license key is encrypted by the combination of the device ID, which could be your
SD card ID, and a map code. Also, please note that the license key is per map region.
Each map region has its own map code, and thus you should have different license key
for each map region. E.g. the map codes for BeNeLux, Germany and Taiwan could be
BeNeLux@2007, Germany@2007 and Taiwan@2007, respectively.
If the software you have is not equipped with legal map licenses, the security warning
pages will pop up to remind you of finishing the process to have legal licenses at the
beginning of running PolNav.
2.1.1 Map code
As explained above, the license key is encrypted by the combination of the device ID
and the map code.
To know your map code, enter Main Menu, choose Info ->Map.
As shown above, each entry has an icon, indicating if the corresponding map is legal or
not, a map code and the date code. As an example, the first two illustrates the region
Australia has a map code Australia @2007 and the region Austria/Switzerland has a
map code Australia@2007.
2.1.2 Registration
The software may not run with full functionalities and successfully if the map data is not
with legal license.
The license key is calculated based on map code and device ID. If you have not a legal
license of map data, you will be warned by the message “Unregistered map(s) found!”

at the moment you run the software as below. Press OK to check the illegal map data
you use, where a forbidden icon are shown below.
To get a license key, you need to send the Device ID and the map code to the original
distributor to request a legal license key to that map data once you have paid for it.
It would be strongly recommended to register your personal information to the server of
the original distributor once you have the license key in case you need to retrieve the
map data due to the SD card corrupted.
After having the license key for that map region, simply press Register button in Map
Info page to finish the activation process as shown below.

2.1.3 Device ID
To know your Device ID, entering Main Menu ->Info ->About
2.2 Hardware Configuration (PC/PDA Only)
After installing PolNav on your PC/PDA, please ensure your GPS hardware has been
correctly setup. For instructions on GPS hardware setup, please refer to your GPS
hardware manual. You will only need to do this once. Once the GPS hardware has been
setup, please take note of the Port Settings for your GPS. You will need this to
configure the settings in PolNav.
Press the Settings in the Main Menu and then press GPS Port. Now change the COM
Port and Baud Rate to the given values.
