Integration into superiour telematic systems
Navigator can integrate with other programs with a number of external commands. These can be sent to Navigator via a serial interface or TCP / IP. So you can resize the Navigator window, change various settings, send new routing points or communicate with the driver similar to ICQ and many others. You can also obtain information from Navigator, f.e. remaining time or distance to destination, current coordinates, and others.
The list of current commands can be found here.
Other modifications in Navigator can be done by changing the configuration files. Buttons may be removed from the menu, or vice versa buttons can be added to the map/navigation screen.
