20. Error Conditions

Account cancelled

Your Scout account has been cancelled. Contact Telenav Customer Support at

1-888-353-6284.

Account not found

You do not have a valid Scout account. Contact Telenav Customer Support at 1-888-353-6284.

GPS signal weak, Cannot get GPS signal, or No GPS data

Move to an area where your device has a clearer view of the sky and can still connect with your device. Please note that

some car windshields that have heat-reflective coatings may reduce the quality of the GPS signal. Your device should

announce when you have adequate GPS signal again.

Network signal weak

If the carrier network signal is weak, move to an area where reception is better and try the function that requires network

access again.

Scout encountered an error

Scout is having technical problems with the specific request that you made. This can be due to an address that it cannot

find, or mapping data that does not allow routing from where you are to where you want to go. In this case, try to use a

nearby address.

Scout not available

If you get an advisory message that Scout is not available, exit the application and then re-launch it. If the problem

recurs, it may be due to a temporary server outage.

Unable to generate a route

Scout could not generate a route between the two endpoints of the route. This may be a temporary error if you have a

weak GPS signal when establishing the origin, but may be due to errors in the map data in the area around the

destination.

Your account has expired

You do not have a valid Scout account. Order Scout by calling Telenav Customer Support at 1-888-353-6284.

21. FAQ’s

Why do I need the carrier’s data service?

The data plan allows you to access nationwide routes, maps, and Nearby content from the Scout servers using the data

communication features of your device. These services are different from your cellular airtime. To order a data plan,

please contact your wireless carrier.

How long after I apply for the data service until I can use my Scout system?

With data, you should be able to start using the Scout application right after it has been downloaded.

Why do I get the “GPS Location Settings” prompt when I first launch the application?

You need to turn on the Location settings so your GPS location can be detected, and for features such as navigation to

work within Scout. You will get a prompt message when you first launch the application with instructions on where to

change the Location settings. You must choose “Exit” and manually change the Location settings.
