Title: Navigation: Time before display is being turned on
Post by: Lemmy on July 09, 2023, 18:53:21
Hi, is there any setting to control the time/meters before the display is being turned on in case of a navigation point ahead? E. g. display should turn on 100 m before next navigation turn.

Hello Lemmy,
the screen is turned on when the navigation sound/command is announced. It is currently done 15, 35 and 300 (this one does not turn screen on) seconds before the command, so it is not distance-based but time-based.

Hi Menion, thanks for the fast answer :). Is it possible for the user to edit the values you mentioned via the settings?

Lemmy if you are able, try editing config.cfg in the Locus app folder with plain text editor.

My settings:
# NAVIGATION
# --------------------------------

# times before command, when Locus notify (in seconds), default is: 15|35|300
navigation_announcements_times=30|180|600

You also have the option to make only one or 2 announcements
navigation_announcements_times = 50
or
navigation_announcements_times = 80 | 600

Hi Andrew, I found the config.cfg file, changed the attribute you mentioned to some lower values based on your example and I will test these changes soon :).
