PC*MILER|Mobile User’s Guide 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

This section covers the screens you see when you 
highlight Change Options and press the button under 
SELECT.  
 
This feature allows you to change the default settings 
on preparing a route.  For example, you can change 
the settings so PC*MILER|Mobile

 

calculates routes 

for 53 Foot Trailer for instance.  You also can set the 
parameters for automatic rerouting when you have left 
the planned route, as well as other settings. 

 

Routing and tracking options can also be set when you log on to the PC*MILER|Mobile web site – 
see the PC*MILER|Mobile Web Site section in this User Guide.  

Available Route Guidance options are: 

• 

Practical:  Practical routes represent routing a driver would normally take to minimize time 
and cost. Practical routing models the trade-off between taking the most direct path and 
staying on major, high quality highways.  Interstate highways are given a higher priority than 
toll roads, which in turn are given a higher priority than secondary highways, and so on. 
Practical routings consider distance, road quality, terrain, urban/rural classifications, truck-
restricted roads, and designated principal and secondary through routes. 

• 

Shortest:  PC*MILER Shortest Routes represent distances and driving routes that a vehicle 
would take to minimize total distance traveled while still following a reasonable route.  For 
instance, Shortest Route mileages and routes will also avoid truck-restricted roads and, in 
some cases, may favor a beltway rather than traveling directly through a city. 

• 

National Network:  The National Network is a government-designated system of highways 
originally established by the Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 and updated in 
1992.  PC*MILER National Network routing represents distances and driving routes which 
are most reasonable and legal for the larger trucks authorized by the Surface Transportation 
Assistance Act of 1982.  This routing stays on the National Network to the maximum extent 
possible. 

• 

53 Foot Trailer:  Calculations for these routes are based on National Network routing, with 
the addition of roads that permit 53’ trailers. 

• 

Toll-Discouraged:  These routes will avoid long stretches of toll roads but will not take long, 
impractical detours to avoid toll bridges and tunnels. 

• 

Hazardous Material:  Hazmat routes are constrained by US federal, state, and local 
hazardous materials restrictions.
