GF82.61-P-2002QN Continuous Position Finding, Function
- with CODE (525) MB Audio 50 APS radio












Continuous positioning finding means that the current position of the vehicle is calculated. This function is active when the ignition is switched on (circuit 15R on), and is carried out by the navigation processor, which is integrated in the radio and navigation unit (A2/56). During the switch-on phase (software is loaded), only the basic position finding is available. After switching the ignition off (circuit 15R off), all important positioning parameters are stored for the duration of the run-on time (approx. 30 min).

Continuous position finding uses 3 methods which supplement each other mutually and guarantee very accurate and reliable position finding. These include:
^ Basic position finding (composite positioning)
^ Map-based position finding
^ GPS position finding

Manual entry of vehicle location
It is possible to enter the location manually on the radio and navigation unit (A2/56). This may be useful in the following cases:
^ Following transport of the vehicle by ferry or train.
^ If there was no GPS reception at the start of a journey.
