Trip computer functions, SID 2.
| Trip computer functions, SID 2. |
| DIST (distance to destination) |
The distance to destination is calculated using information on:
| • |
Odometer reading, unit km, miles (bus information from MIU).
|
|
The display range is 0 to 9999 km or miles. When the SID unit has been programmed with a value, a count-down begins using the actual distance covered.
If no distance is given, the distance covered since the last SID unit reset will be shown. Resetting with CLR does not affect a programmed value for distance to destination.
Calculations
The SID unit calculates the ration between DIST, ARRIV and SPD. To carry out these calculations, the value in DIST must be greater than 0.If an arrival time is then programmed into ARRIV the SID unit will show the calculated average speed, or if a desired average speed is programmed in SPD, the SID unit will show the estimated arrival time in ARRIV.
If the calculation is made when the car is running, the calculated value is replaced by the correct figure after 10 seconds. If the calculation is made with the car stationary, the calculated value is replaced by the correct figure as soon as the car is driven.
| ARRIV (arrival time) |
The arrival time is calculated from information on:
| • |
Current time (internal SID function)
|
|
| • |
Programmed value in DIST.
|
|
| • |
Speed, unit km/h, mph (bus information from MIU).
|
|
The display range is from the present time and onwards up to 23 hours and 59 minutes, updated every second.
When DIST is 0, the current time will be displayed on the SID.
Resetting with CLR does not affect the programmed/calculated value for arrival time.
Calculations
The SID unit calculates the ratio between DIST, ARRIV and SPD. To carry out these calculations, the value in DIST must be greater than 0.If an arrival time is then programmed into ARRIV the SID unit will show the calculated average speed, or if a desired average speed is programmed in SPD, the SID unit will show the estimated arrival time in ARRIV.
If the calculation is made when the car is running, the calculated value is replaced by the correct figure after 10 seconds. If the calculation is made with the car stationary, the calculated value is replaced by the correct figure as soon as the car is driven.
| ALARM (time alarm) |
The alarm function is performed after the current time is set on the SID unit clock, after which the alarm time can be programmed.
When the alarm is triggered (activated), the text “ALARM” flashes on the SID unit. An acoustic signal is heard at the same time.
The alarm sounds and flashes for 1 minute or until turned off by one of the SID unit buttons.
| SPD W (speed warning) |
Speed warning uses information on:
| • |
Speed, unit km/h, mph (bus information from MIU).
|
|
| • |
Programmed speed for warning
|
|
The speed warning can be programmed between 0 and 250 km/h (0-155 mph). If the car exceeds the programmed speed, an acoustic signal is heard every 3 seconds and the text “SPDW” flashes on the display at a frequency of 1 Hz (once a second).
| Speed warning, ME |
On the ME market, all cars are programmed with a speed warning which is activated when car speed exceeds 120 km/h. This function applies to both SID 1 and SID 2. For SID 2, this means that the normal SPD W (speed warning) can only be programmed up to 120 km/h.
The function can be programmed ON/OFF using the diagnostic tool.
