Guide
How to use it,
one step at a time.
The same guide you find inside the app, divided into chapters: every command with what it does, what to remember and what to do if something does not work. In the app it is also in your language, with search.
First time with a roadbook?
The words to know.
- Roadbook
- The book of the route: one row for every point where you have to do something. Each row is a note.
- Note
- A row of the roadbook: on the left the kilometres, in the centre the drawing of the junction, on the right the symbols and directions.
- Tulip
- The drawing of the junction. The dot at the bottom is where you come from, the arrow is where you go.
- Trip
- The distance counter. It is reset when the roadbook says so, and corrected if it has lost or gained a few metres.
- Partial
- The distance from the previous note to this one: the small number under the kilometres.
- CAP
- The direction in degrees, as on a compass: 0 is north, 90 east. The note gives the CAP to hold as you leave the junction, the bar shows yours.
- Countdown
- How far it is to the next note. It changes colour as you get closer.
- Waypoint
- A point on the route, with its coordinates, that the organisers want you to pass through. You take it by passing inside its radius.
- GPX track
- A file with the line of the route, to see on the map. The roadbook does not need it, the map does.
- RoadBook PRO
- The roadbook converted by the app: it reads the kilometres, CAP and waypoints itself, and the notes advance with the trip.
- Event
- A gathering, a tour or a competition: days, participants and materials that the organiser prepares and the app receives.
- Tracking
- Your position reaching the organisers during the event, for safety and for the results.
