I have just updated GPS IDEAS PRO once again this month to 1.5 version.
Why? Every time I stopped my car and turned the engine off I had to remember to disconnect the GPS and turn off the power of PPC.
I had to do it every time. But now GPS IDEAS PRO has a solution. It detects if the is supplied. Perhaps all of us power the PPC and GPS from the car socket. This is why GPS IDEAS detects the power. Every time you turn off the engine, you also cut off the power in car socket. GPS IDEAS detects it, automatically disconnects the GPS receiver and (after a 10 seconds delay and a voice alert) turns off the power of PPC device.
Thats all! When you turn the engine on again you need only to press the power button of PPC. GPS IDEAS will connect GPS receiver automatically and start running.
To use this new feature I added a special Gps/Power auto-detection menu. When it is checked, the feature is activated.
Please use TRIAL version of GPS IDEAS to be sure it is working fine with your equipment.

- Now! With Fuel Calculator.
