Hello readers of our portal Gadgetmir. Today we will tell a little about GPS navigatore navitel, which can be downloaded from official Site., and for Android devices with Google Play Market.. Navitel is one of the most popular navigators, it can be installed almost on any device and any operating system. On the Android devices The number of installations is approximately 20,000,000. Unlike most navigation systems, this navigator can work without access to the Internet, that is, it is enough to download and install on the device.

Once, one of our acquaintances asked me how to add a map in GPS Navitel Navigator? Well, let's try to deal with this question.

In what cases do you need to add a map in the GPS Navitel Navigator?

Just installed program It does not have any cards, you need to independently download the map in the Navitel GPS Navigator, and it is correct. Maps occupy a lot of space, so there is no need for all cards, you only install the one you need.

Another case, this is when you threatened to travel abroad, then you need to add a map to the GPS Navitel Navigator.

Perhaps there are other cases, but we will not consider them, as an article about a friend.

Ways to add a map in GPS Navitel Navigator

Method 1. Well, you installed the navigator, and you are going to add a map to the GPS Navitel Navigator. Before adding a map, you must first start the navigator, it will create all the folders you need on the device memory. After startup, it will immediately ask to specify the path to the folder with the card lying in it. But in order not to accidentally delete the map, I propose to put it in the navigator folder, so press the "Exit" button.

Next with help file Manager We take the necessary card and apply it to its program at the following address: device memory (Phone Storage) / NavitelContent / Maps. There are cases of COGD to melt the phone is broken into two parts: internal and sdcard0. In this case, the address will be a little different: the memory of the device / SDCARD0 / NAVITELCONTENT / MAPS. Now launch your Navitel and rejoice in the application, it will not request the path to the folder.

Very often it is found that the memory of smartphones is very small, most often this occurs on budget versions Smartphones. In this case, this method is not suitable, then see method 2.

Did you know that?

Method 2. In cases where it is not enough space in the memory of the device to install the cards, then you need to put the map into any directory (so that you remembered and did not delete it). Then start the application and start adding a map to the Navitel GPS Navigator. If the navigator has no cards yet, the window shown in Figure 1 will open when starting, and click the Add Atlas button. But if you have a connected one, this window will not appear. In any case, add a map to the GPS Navitel Navigator, for this we go to the application settings.

- In the lower left corner of the window, press the "Menu" button

- Then click on the "Settings" button

- Choose "Other Maps"

- You hit the list of connected cards. Now to add a map in the GPS Navitel Navitel need to be tapped by the "Add Atlas" button

Here you need to specify the full path to the map. GPS Navitel Navigator sees all the memory of the device, including systemic, so some not experienced users may have difficulty, due to misunderstanding how to choose a smartphone memory or memory card. Once you have clicked the "Add Atlas" button, you will have a large list of folders in system Memory Devices. In order to get into the phone's memory or on a flash drive you should open the "MNT" folder there you will find the device memory and flash drive.

There were cases when the flash drive was not displayed in this folder, in such cases it should be returned to the level up and log in to the "Storage" folder. The "Storage" folder displays only the device memory and memory card.

That's actually all that concerns the addition of cards in the Navitel GPS navigator. If questions arise - write in the comments.

Stay with us, there is still a lot of interesting things.

The question of how to upload a map to the navigator may be irrelevant in certain cases. For example, if your device is already purchased with the presence of a navigation program. She paves the route to a predetermined manufacturer maps. The basic set depends on what exactly your navigator has. That is, cards designed to work with "Navitel" are not suitable for working with "Garmin", as the opposite.

With all the above, speaking about the basic set, one should understand some of its specifics. It may not have any maps of some regions needed. Then, of course, you should know how to download cards to the navigator additionally. You can do this in several ways. One of these ways is a buyer of licensed cards, and you can download them from the Internet for free.

Unofficial maps of different regions are mainly developed on the basis of existing ones. Make their advanced users of navigators and, as a rule, installing informal cards technical support and updates. In addition, they must be read by your navigation program, to approach it by format.

Step two:On the flash card, you must create a special folder in which third-party cards for the navigator will be placed. You can call it traditionally usermaps.

Step Three: In the created folder "Usermaps" you need to create a subfolder. A map of the corresponding region will be placed in it. She can give the name "Region".

Step four:The files of the required card are copied in the newly created "Region" folder.

Pitch Fifth: The flash card must be returned to the navigator and open the program "Navitel" on it. As a result of the manipulations of the manipulations, the menu will appear.

Thus, we considered the installation of a number of cards in a navigator, which are popular today.

As a rule, most navigators come with already preset maps and a navigation program that paves the route over these cards. The navigation program works with specific cards created specifically for it. For example, there is a Navitel-Navigator navigation program that works with Navitel cards. She will not work with garmin cards and vice versa.

The basic card set in the navigator does not always contain maps of all necessary regions. Sometimes there is a need for additional maps. How to install a map into the navigator? There are two ways: buy the necessary licensed cards, download free cards from the Internet.

Connect the navigator to the computer. If the Navitel program is located on a separate flash card, then remove it from the navigator and open it on the computer. In the future, we assume that we work with a flash card.

Core Flash cards create a separate folder for third-party cardsFor example, usermaps. Do not touch other folders and do not keep anything in them to avoid possible conflicts between official and third-party cards.

In the Usermaps folder, create a folder under the map of the region you want to add to atlas, for example Region1.

Copy the files of the new card to the Region1 folder

Insert the flash card into the navigator

In the Navitel-navigator program, select the "Open Atlas" menu and click on the icon with the folder at the bottom of the window to create a new atlas.

In the window that appears, we find the REGION1 folder where new cards are stored, click on it and choose the "Create Atlas" command

We are waiting for the indexation and the atlas will be created. Press the button with the check mark.

Free Maps Garmin based on OpenStreetMap can be installed using the MapSource program. The following is described how to download maps to the navigator with it:

Load the MapSource program from the official site of Garmin.com from the Support-\u003e Software site and then Mapping Programs.

Unpack the archive into a separate folder and start the MSMAIN.MSI file from it and only then setup.exe. Wait until the installation is completed. Since there is no Garmin's card on your computer yet, then you don't have the point of launching the MapSource program.

Download Garmin cards need

Unpack the archives with maps into separate folders

Run for each card file Installso that the computer registry entered the necessary information About maps.

Run the MapSource program. Now in the program you can detect the cards installed on the computer through the service menu-\u003e control of cartographic products.

Installation of autospaulous maps

Amateur cards for the OpenStreetMap-based autospaulum you can add to the program as the official, passing only the registration step. Just rewrite them into the Maps folder, pre-unpacked.

How to download other cards to the navigator

It happens that after purchase, the client decides that the navigation program or cards do not satisfy its requirements, and decides to change them. We have already told that each navigation program only works with cards intended for it. Is it possible to replace the navigation software in the automotive navigator? The answer, which suggests itself, "yes", but there is exceptions.

Position Garmin

In particular, Garmin navigators supplied with pre-installed by Garmin do not support the installation of any third-party manufacturers. Also does not apply to the Garmin navigation program separately from the device itself to install on navigators of other firms. Exception - software navigation package for PC. Transferring software and cards from one device to another is excluded because license key tightly tied to K. serial number Devices.

Position Navitel

A similar policy uses CJSC CST, the developer in Navitel. The automotive version of the program is only available as part of the navigator when buying and cannot be purchased separately. Therefore, if you have a navigator with an autospaid or any other product, then wishing to go to Navitel You will have to buy another navigator from Navitel in the kit. The rigid license also eliminates the transfer of the program and cards from one device to another when replacing the device. To use Navitel, but not buy a new navigator, you can purchase a version for PDA and mobile with a less strict license.

Motor spanning position

The most democratic in the question of replacing and transferring cards was the autospaulous. I once boring a license for the autospaulite program 5, you can use it even if you change the device to another. It is only required to go through the re-registration procedure on the manufacturer's website. Moreover, the Avtospace program always goes as a bonus to all purchased cards. The only restriction can be the model of the navigator supported by the auto slip device are listed on the site. Attracts the product price within 1000 rubles, it's two, and even three times less than Navitel. With this approach, it's not a pity to buy an autospace and, in which case it is painlessly abandoned.

Multiple programs on one device

Some navigator manufacturers went to meet their customers and gave them the opportunity to use several navigation systems on the navigator instead of one with the help of the so-called alternative shell.

Alternative shell copied to internal memory or flash card inserted into the navigator, and as if "pretending" pre-installed program Navigation, launching instead of her. IN separate file Alternative shell settings are prescribed paths to files of available navigation programs that can be called through the menu of the shell itself.

One of these shells for its navigators offers X-Device, about setting up and installing this component can be found on their forum. Also, the ability to use multiple navigation programs was provided by Lexand, the shell can be found here.
