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.

To disable Safety Mode and switch to Passenger Mode, make sure the
vehicle is not moving and, from the Options Menu, choose

S

AFETY

M

ODE

to toggle whether the option is on or off. The button itself will show its
current state.

A dialog like the one in the following image appears. Choose

to dis-

able Safety Mode and return to the Options Menu.

WARNING:

When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator
is solely responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe
manner. Vehicle operators must maintain full surveillance
