First Claim
1. A method for operating a navigation system comprising at least one first user terminal (01, 03, 06) and at least one navigation device (02, 04, 07),wherein the user terminal (01, 03, 06) comprises an input device for inputting operator commands and/or location data, particularly destinations and/or time data, especially appointed times,and wherein the user terminal (01, 03, 06) comprises a transmitting unit for transmitting user-generated messages via a communication system,and wherein the navigation device (02, 04, 07) comprises a receiving unit that makes it possible to receive messages from the communication system,and wherein the navigation device (02, 04, 07) comprises a road network database,and wherein the navigation device (02, 04, 07) comprises a route calculating unit for calculating a planned route,with said method comprising the following steps:
- a) inputting a destination and an appointed time into the user terminal (01, 03, 06);
b) transmitting a message from the user terminal (01, 03, 06) to the navigation device (02, 04, 07) by means of remote data transmission, wherein said message contains a destination and an appointed time;
c) receiving the message on the navigation device;
d) calculating a route on the navigation device (02, 04, 07), wherein this route leads from the current location to the destination received with the message; and
e) outputting the route.
