Features

Overview: The Azentek SmartMirror (SM450) is an OEM replacement rear-view mirror with an integrated Navigon GPS Receiver/Navigator. The SmartMirror has a standard 6-1/2" x 2" mirror, plus a 4" (diagonal) touchscreen color LCD for the navigation receiver. The SmartMirror comes with a built-in, flip-up GPS antenna, as well as an external magnetic GPS antenna. In addition, the unit includes Bluetooth technology for hands-free calling, and 2 composite video inputs for reverse camera input.

Processor/Operating System: The SmartMirror utilizes the Samsung S3C2440A 400 MHz processor with a 64 MB internal memory. It is built on the Windows CE .NET 4.2 operating system.

SD Card Slot: On the right side of the unit is a slot for an SD Memory Card for storing maps, pictures, and e-books. A 2 GB SD card containing detailed map information and navigation software is included with the unit. Saved destinations, routes, and logbook entries are saved on the card.

4" LCD Touchscreen: The unit's 4" LCD touchscreen has a resolution of 480 x 272 pixels. You can adjust the backlight brightness to any of 10 levels, plus independently set day and night brightness. A stylus is included for accurate screen navigation. It is stored in a slot on the side the SmartMirror.

Reverse Camera Input: The SmartMirror has two composite video inputs (female RCAs) for use with a rear-view camera. The included reverse-gear detection wire, when connected into the back-up light circuitry, will automatically switch the 4" LCD screen to the rear-view camera input when the vehicle is put into reverse gear.

Temperature Extremes: The unit is designed to withstand the following temperature extremes:

• Operating Temperature: 32° F to 140° F (0° C to 60° C)
• Storage Temperature: -65° F to +150° F (-54° C to + 65° C)

Navigation

GPS Navigation: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth and are constantly transmitting their position. The GPS receiver uses this data and calculates its own geographical position. When data from at least three satellites is obtained, the unit can sufficiently calculate your position. With the data of 4 or more satellites, the altitude above sea level can also be ascertained. The GPS receiver has an accuracy of about 3 yards.

Navigon: The Azentek SmartMirror features the Navigon Mobile Navigator 6.5 with voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions, including spoken street names via text-to-speech. The unit uses the Samsung Sirf-III 16-channel GPS receiver, and the Samsung S3C244OA-400 MHz processor. The navigator offers intuitive menus, as well as 2D and 3D maps.

Loaded Maps: The SmartMirror contains maps for the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii), Canada, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

Main Window: The Main Window opens when the navigation software stars, providing you the following options:

• New Destination: You can select an address by city or street name, or select a point of interest (POI) by name or by tapping on the map.
• My Destination: You can select a destination from a list of saved destinations, or from a recently entered destination.
• Take Me Home: You can specify your home address as a destination, and quickly create a route back to your home address from your present location.
• Show Map: You can simply let the GPS receiver show your location on the current map as you travel.

Auto-Complete: When typing in a destination using the on-screen keyboard, the unit will begin sorting locations as you enter letters. After you type the first letter, the largest city in the selection area appears. Once you type in a second letter, the list shows all map areas that begin with the typed letters. The more letters you enter, the shorter the list becomes, until the desired location appears.

Points of Interest (POIs): The SmartMirror's GPS receiver has millions of points of interest, which are useful address that are organized according to particular criteria. POIs include airports, restaurants, hotels, gas stations, government offices, banks, hospitals, shopping centers, etc. Icons representing the POIs can be displayed on the map. You can search for POIs in the following areas: nearby, nationwide, in a city, or by direct access. For many POIs, there will be additional information available, including telephone numbers, stored in the navigation system's database.

Preplanned Routes: With the SmartMirror, you can preplan routes with multiple route points, and save them for later use. Once you have entered a starting point, you can enter addresses, POIs, previously saved destinations, and "home" in the order you desire. Once all of the route points are entered, you can delete or re-order the route points as you wish. You can save each planned route under a particular name.

Route Simulation: You can use the built-in GPS simulator to view a route. You can view the route turn-by-turn without the need for GPS signal reception.

Navigation Mode: During navigation the SmartMirror's touchscreen indicates the route to follow in orange with your current position indicated with an orange arrow. Additional map details include:

• Signpost: A representation of the highway sign to be followed in displayed at the top of the screen.
• Speed Limit: The posted speed limits are displayed (where available) in the upper left.
• Next Maneuver(s): An arrow pointing the direction of your next turn, along with the remaining distance to the junction is displayed on the left side. As you get closer to the junction, a series of orange dots begin appearing beside the arrow. The nearer you get to the junction, the more dots are displayed. When two maneuvers need to be executed in quick succession, a small arrow field indicating the direction of the second maneuver is displayed above main arrow.
• Traffic Lanes: If you are traveling on a multi-lane highway, the best lane to be followed will be indicated near the current position arrow.
• Current Speed/Elevation: Your current speed and the elevation above sea level is indicated at the top right of the screen. The unit can be set to warn you when you exceed the posted speed limit by 5, 10, or 15 MPH.
• Distance/Time to Destination: The remaining distance to the destination, the estimated duration of the trip, and the estimated time of arrival are shown on the right side of the screen. If you are navigating a route with several stages, you will also see the remaining distance, estimated duration and estimated time of arrival for the next interim destination in the "Next" field.
• Current/Next Street Name: At the bottom of the screen are two bars along the bottom of the screen. One indicates the name of the current street/road on which you are traveling. The other indicates the name of the next street or road you will be traveling on.

Reality View/Lane Assist: During navigation, when you approach a highway junction, the map changes to Reality View, which shows the signposting and lanes you must follow (where available). Once you pass the junction, the screen changes back to Navigation Mode.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth 1.2: The Azentek SmartMirror is equipped with Bluetooth 1.2 technology, allowing you to make and receive phone calls on your Bluetooth-compatible phone. The front of the mirror has an "Answer" button, a "Hang Up" button, and a "Bluetooth Pair" button.

Caller ID: When receiving a call, the incoming caller ID information will display on the LCD screen. In addition, a call history log is saved in memory.

Microphone: The SmartMirror includes a microphone with a self-adhesive base for use with Bluetooth. For best results, it should be mounted within 2 feet of the driver's head.

Installation

Mounting: The SmartMirror is designed to replace most OEM rear-view mirrors. It is packaged with a universal wedge style mount for attaching to the windshield. A screw wedge mount, as well as a screw-less wedge mount are provided. A camlock mount, generally found on vehicles manufactured outside of the US, is sold separately by the manufacturer.

Installation Advisory: Azentek does not recommend installing this mirror if your vehicle has airbag sensors in the headliner area, or if the vehicle is equipped with OnStar. If your vehicle's mirror is mounted within the windshield, not stuck on like the wedge or camlock style mount, detachment is not recommended. If your windshield wipers have a sensor mounted in your rearview mirror, installation of this mirror will deactivate that function.

Installation Difficulty: Installation of the SmartMirror is recommended for a professional, or an advanced do-it-yourselfer. In addition to physically mounting the mirror to the windshield, you must route wires through the headliner, and make connections for constant and switched power, ground, and reverse-gear detection.
