Another EC 225 discussion....
The AMC computed Vtoss is shown on the IAS column (eg 45 kts). If we decide to take a higher V1 than indicated eg when using a long runway departure in Performance Class 1 ops (maybe 40 ft / 60 kts h1 v1 TDP) from an airport with sufficient runway length, would it be better to beep the V toss to 70 kts (in this case) or to leave the V toss as indicating 45 kts? I personally like to keep the origional V toss rather than beeping to the new selected V toss as I will know at all times the exact take off safety speed. Any extra is a bonus and in "real bad time" I may even be able to convert the excess speed to height.
