How does the entry on/exit off function work? Does it sense you coming in the car or something?

i gave this to my daughter so i've never used it. however the manual says it has a vibration sensor that turns it on when you shut your door.i dont know if it works or not

Yes. The only problem is that sometimes it answers in the car when outside the car in range. You would have to shut the device off when near the car (right near the car only). Otherwise it works great. Good audio, good time on a charge.

I believe it's blue tooth. The cell phone will be noticed within 50 feet of the automobile by the unit. Usually, by the time you open the door, the unit is speaking, letting you know that you are connected.

Yes it does. When you get in the car it will sense your phone and turn itself on. You get the same response as if you physically turned the switch on.

It senses the vibration of the vehicle. I agree with previous, if answering a call outside the vehicle, the unit will pick up. Rough guess, would say 50-75 feet away.

The button is a "press on, press off" type function. However, if you press part way it will stay on only until it is released. I find it to be a very handy feature.

It only shows you what road you are on when it is NOT navigating to a destination you put in. When you are navigating to a destination the unit is "working" and shows you what it thinks you NEED and that is the NEXT turn and NOT the street you are on. This makes perfect sense. If you are in an area you don't know you don't need the road you are on but rather the road you turn on next and the distance to this road and turn. After all, it already gave you the road you are on when you turned on it. If it just said, "turn on Elm St." then you are on Elm St. :) Make sense?

When leaving your house, you must turn around and lock the door by pressing the lock button. This is handy if you are running in and out doing yard work/kids etc so you don't have to keep pressing the code for re- entry.

Yea, beeps on all key pressesIncrement/decrement in .1 mph incrementsIf you restart within 20mins of stopping it will remember your stats. After 20 mins it all resets and assumes you are finished rather than taking a break.

I just turn it off when I leave the car, and on when I get back in the car. It says 'connected" and you are good to go!

No it dsnt turn off on its own. Infact if u don't put any specific destination on ot it will change to simply showing u the maps and roads without any navigation. It turns off when u turn it off or the ignition to the car is off.

It does extend beyond the car door. The idea is to insert it after door is opened when preparing to enter car. Use it to hold onto until seated, then remove and close door. To exit car, open door, insert Handybar, exit car, remove Handybar, close door.

Turn the ignition from OFF to RUN (don't actually turn the car on) do this 4 times in 3 seconds, ending in the OFF position. The system will chime to confirm you have entered the programming mode. If it doesn't chime, either you didn't do it fast enough (open and close driver door and try again) or this procedure is not the correct one for you. If it does chime, within 10 seconds of the chime push any button on the keyless remote. The system will chime again to confirm programming is complete. Turn ignition to run to exit programming mode. You have to do these steps quickly and leave key in ignition the whole time.

Funny, I never noticed it before. but it does count each time it goes off. We have ours a ways down our driveway so we can hear people driving onto our property. Some workmen just left and it rang once and counted once. If something or someone goes by more slowly, however, it might ring twice and thus count twice.

The little door can stay on or off. If its off the detection angle will become wider causing the unit to be tripped at a wider peripheral.

It's automatic, just remember to eject it when you get out of your car. When you leave it in it's still on. Also, when you get it, loosen, very slightly, the 4 screws on the corner. If you don't it will keep ejecting by itself.

As from the manual: Auto Standby function: The unit automatically enters the standby mode if the status with no operation and sound continues 5 minutes. To switch on/off this function, press and hold first , and then for about 3 seconds. When this function is set to on, the indicator flashes once. It flashes twice when this function is set to off.

The car does NOT need to be on, and the key DOES NOT need to be in the ignition to work. Most OBD ports are powered even when the vehicle is off, and thus so is the tracker. It does not routinely send position updates when the ignition is off. However, there is a feature where you can have it send you an alert if the car is towed so it is aware when the vehicle moves but the ignition is off.

The car has a "Driver 1" and "Driver 2" memory function. When the Mem #1 unlocks the car the seat/temp/radio programming all set to Driver 1's preferences... and Mem #2 goes to Driver 2's preferences. It's a NICE feature.

It will alert you when the door is open as well if it's opened for a certain period of time. It has rules you set. It will not distguish between opening using a remote, car or manual. Just open.

Yes. In fact if you need to close within a few seconds, all you do is punch the o instead of the entire 4 digit code! Also you can stop the door at any position by entering the 0 !!7
