Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Navman B2+ module. The B2+ can be plugged into your Navman to
identify potential traffic delays in your area and help you avoid them. Use this manual to learn how to
operate your B2+ efficiently and safely, and discover the range of features available to you.
B2+ Traffic Module | Introduction
7
How does my B2+ receive traffic
information?
When used with the B2+, your Navman can receive current traffic information for all main roads and
motorways, enabling you to avoid potential delays on your route.
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information via the FM
Radio Data System (RDS). FM radio stations transmit TMC data on a cycle of several minutes, with
hundreds of Events able to be broadcast to TMC receivers, such as the B2+.
Traffic status
Your current traffic status is indicated by the colour of the TMC icon in the bottom-left corner of the
map screens.
The following table describes the three traffic status icons:
Traffic Status Description
The TMC status is grey if traffic is currently inactive due to one of the following
conditions:
The B2+ is connecting to the TMC service.
The B2+ cannot receive TMC data. This may be due to poor radio coverage
in the local vicinity.
You are in a country that is not supported by the B2+.
Click to display the Traffic Overview screen.
The TMC status is orange if one of the following conditions apply:
You have navigated into a country that is not supported by the B2+, but there
are still traffic events listed on the Event List screen.
You have separated your Navman from the B2+, or the B2+ is not receiving
power but there are still traffic events listed on the Event List screen.
Click to display the Traffic Overview screen.
The TMC status is green if the B2+ is active and receiving traffic events.
Click to display the Traffic Overview screen.
Your traffic status is displayed in more detail on the Traffic System Status screen.

How will I know when a Traffic
Event occurs?
Your B2+ begins working the moment it is installed. Incoming Events are handled according to your
Traffic Preferences. For more information, see "How do I customize Traffic preferences?" on page 24.
When travelling through an area in which you can receive TMC transmissions, your B2+ will decode
these Events and send them to your Navman. Your Navman will display an icon at the Event location
on the 3D and 2D Map screens, and an audible warning is given if an Event is on your route. Where
the extent of an Event is a specific distance, the road will be highlighted and arrows will indicate the
direction affected.
A message will display at the bottom of the screen used to view your route. This details the road
name, the section of road affected and the type of Event that has occurred. The message remains on
screen for 8 seconds and is added to the Event List.
