Appendix Appendix Appendix Glossary AAC AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and refers to an audio compression technology standard used with MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. Bit rate This expresses data volume per second, or bps units (bits per second). The higher the rate, the more information is available to reproduce the sound. Using the same encoding method (such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better the sound. CD-DA This stands for a general music CD (commercial-release audio CD). In this manual, this word is sometime used for a distinction between data CDs (which include compressed audio files) and general music CDs. Current location The present location of your vehicle; your current location is shown on the map by a red triangle mark. Destination A location you choose as the end point of your journey. Favorites A frequently visited location (such as your workplace or a relative's home) that you can register to allow easy routing. GPS Global Positioning System. A network of satellites that provides navigation signals for a variety of purposes. Guidance mode The mode in which guidance is given as you drive to your destination; the system automatically switches to this mode as soon as a route has been set. Guidance point These are important landmarks along your route, generally intersections. The next guidance point along your route is indicated on the map by the yellow flag icon. Home location Your registered home location. ID3 tag This is a method of embedding track-related information in an MP3 file. This embedded information can include the track title, the artist's name, the album title, the music genre, the year of production, comments and other data. The contents can be freely edited using software with ID3 Tag editing functions. Although the tags are restricted by the number of characters, the information can be viewed when the track is played back.
