Speed Display Mode
The Speed Display Mode is divided into three screens. The first contains a compass and current
speed in a large font, and will also give on-screen and audible notification of Points of Interest. The
second is an Odometer and the third an Altimeter. Navigate between these screens by using
the▲▼buttons.
Points of Interest (POI)
In the Speed Display Mode, there is a „Points of Interest‟ (POI) facility that can be used to indicate
when the vehicle is near to a pre-determined geographical position. This option is active whenever
the inserted SD card contains a valid.ov2 POI file. A common use of POI files is to store the
location of safety cameras, but custom POI files can also be created to give locations of any other
points that might be useful for testing purposes.
DriftBox will beep and display an icon on-screen whenever the vehicle moves within 250
meters of a POI, unless the vehicle is moving away from the POI.
The Points of Interest feature will only function if the correct POI files are present on the SD card.
These files can be downloaded from various websites such as www.poihandler.com. The only file
format recognised by DriftBox is the .ov2 type.
In order to display an icon when near a POI, the SD card must also contain a monochrome bitmap
file no larger that 22 x 22 pixels with the same name as the corresponding .ov2 file. For instance: if
a POI file named Filling_Stations.ov2 is present on the card and you wish to display a
corresponding image when approaching one of the points of interest, the image file must be called
Filling_Stations.bmp.
Warning:
If DriftBox is being used as a Safety Camera detector, note that this option is designed to make
you aware of potentially dangerous areas where they may be in force. We do not guarantee that all
of these areas are listed in any file you download. We accept NO liability whatsoever in the event
that you receive a speeding fine through not being warned by this option on DriftBox. Nor do we
guarantee the accuracy of the data either expressed or implied.
