Keep the top of the map aligned with your forward direction of travel

Note: You must have a global positioning system (GPS) device configured on your mobile computer and communicating with FH Mobile Response to track your current location and display it in FH Mobile Response. Information on configuring a GPS device is available in Set up GPS communication with FH Mobile Response.

If you have a GPS configured to work with FH Mobile Response, and if you have enabled tracking of your current location, you can have FH Mobile Response change the map orientation as needed, so that the direction you are driving is towards the top of the map.

1. (If you have not done so already) Do one of the following.

   • On the Main ribbon, click Tracking Enabled.
   • Choose Go → Tools → GPS Tracking → Tracking Enabled.

   Your current location appears on the map as a directional arrow in an orange circle, and moves on the map as you drive, to reflect your changing location.

   

2. (If you have not done so already) Do one of the following.

   • On the Main ribbon, click Center Screen.
   • Choose Go → Tools →GPS Tracking → Center Screen.

3. Do one of the following.

   • On the Main ribbon, click Forward Up.
   • Choose Go → Tools →GPS Tracking → Forward Up.

   The orientation of the map changes so that the tracking icon's arrow is pointing up. Less of the map "behind you" appears, and more of the map "in front of you" appears.
