Trip Planning and Options

Msg_IDT_TOGGLESTOPORWAYPOINT

Use this function to toggle a Stop to a Waypoint and vice versa. Only intermediate Stops can be marked as a Waypoint so it is not possible to toggle the first or the last Stop in a Trip. Therefore, this API should only be used when more than two Stops exist in the Trip. This API should be used after a Stop has been added via Msg_AddStop() and Msg_TripSend().

#define Msg_IDT_TOGGLESTOPORWAYPOINT = 0x0046L

Request (MsgIDT TOGGLESTOPORWAYPOINT):

• Pass lPayload equal to the zero-based index of the Stop to toggle. The first Stop in the Trip has index 0, so the index passed should be greater than or equal to 1.

Response (Msg_IDT_TOGGLESTOPORWAYPOINT):

• Return value = 1

Msg_IDT_ITINCLR

Returns identifier once trip itinerary is cleared.

Response Response is received as generic identifier once trip itinerary is cleared.

Street and POI Search

Msg_IDT_MAXTYPEAHEADCHNG

Msg_IDT_MAXTYPEAHEAD

Response (Msg_IDT_MAXTYPEAHEAD):

• lPayload will contain current maximum type ahead value

Msg_IDT_CLEARPOISEARCH

To be used in conjunction with Msg_SearchPOIEx, to clear the CoPilot cache memory. We recommend that you use Msg_ClearPOIResults.

#define Msg_IDT_CLEARPOISEARCH = 0x0037L

Request (Msg_IDT_CLEARPOISEARCH):

• Once received this message, CoPilot will free up POI search resources. This should be used once SDK client completes POI search functionality via SDK.

Msg_IDT_CLEARADDRESSSEARCH

To be used in conjunction with Msg_SearchCityAndPostcode, to clear the CoPilot cache memory. We recommend that you use Msg_ClearSearchResults

#define Msg_IDT_CLEARADDRESSSEARCH = 0x0038L

Request (Msg_IDT_CLEARADDRESSSEARCH):

• lPayload = Any.

• Once received this message, CoPilot will free up address search resources. This should be use once SDK client complete searching functionality via SDK.

• Whereas, the following call would zoom out the map by 100%:

• Msg_SendGenericData(Msg_IDT_ZOOM, 200);

• Please note that the % zooming = (the zoom factor that you passed in) – 100, factors greater than 100 would zoom out the map and factors less than 100 would zoom in the map. A factor equal to 100 would do nothing.

Msg_IDT_RESETSPEEDVARZOOM

CoPilot in 3D mode will automatically zoom in and out of the map details based upon vehicle speed. Autozoom is currently switched on by default, until the user touches the zoom buttons, this then switches off the autozoom. Use this function to re-enable the autozoom.

Msg_IDT_VOLUMECHNG

Msg_IDT_VOLUME

This will change the volume setting within CoPilot. We recommend using Msg_IDT_VOLUME instead of Msg_IDT_SPEECH . For Android, CoPilot also update the system volume while all other platform volume is independent of system volume.

#define MSG_IDT_VOLUMECHNG = 0x0029L
#define MSG_IDT_VOLUME = 0x002AL

Request (Msg_IDT_VOLUMECHNG): - Pass lPayload = 0 to 5 (0-Mute, 5-Max) + 1 (if device can vibrate) - Pass lPayload = -1 to get current volume level

Example:

if (device can vibrate)
    if (lPayload >= 1)
        Volume = lpayload - 1
        Vibration is on
    else if (lPayload == 0)
        Volume = 0
        Vibration is off
else if (device cannot vibrate)
    Volume = lPayload

Response (Msg_IDT_VOLUME):

• lPayload will contain current volume level of CoPilot

Msg_IDT_TURNINSTRUCTIONALERT

This identifier enables CoPilot to send an event notification to the client application to provide a pre-notification of a navigational audio alert (this will not include any user interaction or menu selection audio) but does include all turn instructions and other notifications provided to the driver from the navigation. The pre-notification alert time is configurable to milliseconds. Once set, the CoPilot SDK will provide a notification that in X time an audio notification will play. Once CoPilot finishes playing the voice instruction, it again sends a notification to the client application that the instruction is finished.

This identifier is useful if playing CoPilot audio instructions via the vehicle audio system and requires this to be muted, enabling the instruction to be heard. Or if multiple applications share the audio output this notification can ensure there is no conflict.

CoPilot will signal the following event. As global event is being used, it will only support the Win32 platform.

Event Name: CoPilotAudioStart

Description When CoPilot is about to play an instruction, it will signal this event. The event is auto reset so client application does not need to reset it.

Event Name: CoPilotAudioCompleted

Description When CoPilot has finished playing the instruction, it will signal this event. The event is auto reset so client application does not need to reset it.

#define Msg_IDT_TURNINSTRUCTIONALERT = 0x00073L

Request (Msg_IDT_TURNUINSTRUCTIONALERT):

• lPayload > 0, values are in milliseconds. CoPilot provides notification based upon the lPayload value in milliseconds before playing the instruction. CoPilot pre-notification is based upon logic to look ahead on the current route and provide notification based upon current speed and velocity to calculate the pre-notification time. This may mean in some instances, the timing may not be 100% accurate.

• lPayload = 0 to disable the turn instruction alert notification

• lPayload = -1 to request current value set for turn instruction alert notification

Response (Msg_IDT_TURNUINSTRUCTIONALERT):

• Payload will contain current setting in Milliseconds

Using Msg_IDT_TURNUINSTRUCTIONALERT in SDK Sample Application

User can change the Turn Instruction Alert using the SDK Sample Application by using OptionsSettings Turn Audio Alert.

Comment:

Instead of relying on this notification, the following can use the platform API to check whether CoPilot is hidden or not. It is only available for Windows 10 platform.

bool IsCoPilotInForeground()
{
  return (HWND)ALK_GetCoPilotWindow() == GetForegroundWindow();
}
