Reset Trip
The Reset Trip command is used to reset all of the calculated values to
zero and begin recording new information.
Whenever you're starting a new trip, remember to open up the Trip
Calculator Menu and choose

Threshold
You can use Threshold to make sure the information recorded by iWAY
in the Trip Calculator only applies to your trip's route – not the lost
time in snack stops along the way or the idle time spent in a traffic
jam. If you're interested in complete details for this trip, set your
threshold low (0 mph will monitor conditions all the time).
If you'd prefer a more accurate average measure, raise the Threshold
above idle speed. The Trip Calculator will only track time spent and
distance traveled while you're moving faster than the Threshold.
You can adjust this value by pushing on the up and down arrows to ei-
ther side of the
T
HRESHOLD
box.
Calculated Data
The rest of the Trip Calculator screen shows you the calculated infor-
mation for your current trip. These text boxes contain values that up-
date in real time, while you watch, so you can see your exact speed or
how far you've already gone.
Current Speed, Average Speed and Max Speed all track your
ground speed as measured by changes in your GPS position.
Trip Time tells you how long you've been on the road, and Trip Dis-
tance tells you how long your trip has been so far. Remember that
these values are only recorded while you're moving faster than the
Threshold (as described earlier).
Safety Mode (On/Off)
The iWAY has a Safety Mode to prevent vehicle drivers from operating
the GPS while the vehicle is in motion. The unit will navigate and play
music while moving. The Power button will also work, but the touch-
screen buttons are temporarily disabled whenever Safety Mode is on.
The screen buttons become responsive when the vehicle stops.
However, if a passenger is available to act as navigator, Safety Mode
can be turned off. This switches the unit to Passenger Mode and allows
the passenger to operate the unit while the vehicle is moving.
