Setting SmartBeaconing tm
Enter Menu mode and access Menu 630 and 631.
Set to use [SmartBeaconing] (Menu No.611) with APRS
data transmission.
This function optimizes beacon transmission based on
driving direction and speed. Use this function when you
want to track your transmissions, especially for optimizing
crossover beacon transmission intervals.
n low speed
Low speed setting (2 ~ 30 ).
When the speed is lower than this, beacons are
transmitted at the time interval specified under SLOW
RATE.
Note: To select the speed setting of the units, access Menu 626
(DISPLAY UNIT 1 - SPEED, DISTANCE).
n High speed
High speed setting (2 ~70 ).
When the speed is faster than this, beacons are
transmitted at the time interval specified under FAST
RATE.)
Note: To select the speed setting of the units, access Menu 626
(DISPLAY UNIT 1 - SPEED, DISTANCE).
n Slow rate
Low speed transmission interval time
(1 ~ 100 minutes).
n Fast rate
High speed transmission interval time
(10 ~ 180 seconds).
n turn angle
Driving direction change, minimum value setting
(5 ~ 90 degrees).
n turn slope
Driving direction change, additional value setting
(1 ~ 255 (10degrees/speed)).
n turn time
Minimum time delay between each beacon
transmission (5 ~ 180 seconds).
Note:
u
When Menu No. 602 is set to a value other than [GPS], it
operates at the SLOW RATE.
u Adjust the Setting values to match the actual driving status.

(Only when the set
HIGH SPEED ≧

The interval is
calculated using the
following formula:
(Transmission Interval
= FAST RATE x HI
SPEED ÷ Speed)

Transmission Interval Example:
(with LOW SPEED = 5, HIGH SPEED = 70, SLOW RATE
= 30 min, FAST RATE = 120 sec)
Speed Interval
70 120 seconds (2 minutes)
50 168 seconds (2 minutes 48 seconds)
30 280 seconds (4 minutes 40 seconds)
20 420 seconds (7 minutes)
10 840 seconds (14 minutes)
5 1680 seconds (28 minutes)
0 1800 seconds (30 minutes)
Corner Pegging Operation Example:
