B1.3 Volume

Selecting “Volume” from the main menu displays the following screen:

Volume

The driver uses the up ( )/down ( ) arrow buttons to change the volume. Pressing the “OK” button exits

this menu item.

The modi

fi

ed volume setting will be retained through ignition cycles unless confi gured not to do so. If not

con

fi

gured, the volume setting will default to 100% on each new ignition cycle.

NOTE: The DIU can be con

fi gured to limit the minimum volume setting that the driver can select. The bar

shown above always represents the adjustable range based on minimum and maximum values. For example,
if the minimum value is set to 50% (midpoint between lowest (70 +/- 3dB) and highest (89 +/- 3dB) audio
levels, the bar represents an adjustable range from 50% (approx. 80dB) to 100% (approx. 89dB). Once the
minimum (or maximum) has been reached, a message will be shown indicating that further adjustment is not
allowed (e.g. “Minimum volume reached”). The step change per button press is approximately 2dB.

B1.4 Distance Setting (Dist. Setting)

On systems where changes are permitted, the “Distance Setting” option from the main menu will adjust the

following distance that the Bendix

®

Wingman

®

Advanced

system will attempt to maintain while in the following

distance mode. Distance Settings 1, 2, 3, and 4 will have different meanings based on the confi

guration chosen by

the user in Bendix

®

ACom

®

Diagnostics (version 6.3 or higher). Generally, 4 relates to the farthest distance setting

available and 1 relates to the closest distance setting available. In many of the Advanced confi gurations available

in ACom

®

, two or more distance settings may be made equivalent to one another.

Selecting “Dist. Setting” from the main menu displays the following screen:

B1.5 Distance Units (Dist. Units)

From the “Dist. Units” menu item, the user may choose to have the following distance from the forward vehicle

displayed in either seconds or feet. By default, this item is set to seconds. If the user selects feet, the DIU will

display the approximate distance from the bumper to the selected forward vehicle in feet. If the user selects

seconds, the DIU will display the approximate distance from the bumper to the selected forward vehicle in

seconds.

NOTE: Following distance in seconds is calculated based on the current speed of the Wingman

®

Advanced-equipped truck, and the distance, in feet, away from the selected forward vehicle. For instance, if
the selected forward vehicle is 88 feet from the bumper of the Wingman Advanced-equipped truck, and the
Wingman Advanced-equipped truck is traveling 60 mph, then the following distance in seconds would be 1.0
seconds because a truck traveling 60 mph can travel 88 feet in one (1) second.
