Set Heading F You can input the compass direction to the site from your
present location or, you can select All Range which ignores your specific
heading.
For example: If the Dangerous Road location is toward the Northeast and you are
driving in that direction, then choose NE (45°)
If you know you will be driving on a road which has many curves to that site center,
choose All Range which will trigger the alert regardless of direction as long as
the other requirements (range, speed) are met.
If you travel in a Northeast direction and do not travel either side of a northeast line
by up to 22 degrees, the alert system will function.
Set Speed Limit F Choose from 0, through 100 MPH in 5 MPH steps or
the equivalent in KPH for metric usage.
