OK, on the footpedal there are two buttons (grey) on the bottom front of the unit. One is the power, the other I believe is the "continuous". There is a dial for speed and then a momentary button toward the top of the unit on the other end. You can set the speed, then operate the continuous button to move, then hit it again to coast as you call it. Or you could set the speed and use the momentary button on the top of the pedal.
I would think this is comparable to what you are wanting to do the main difference in the pedal vs the powerdrive pedal is that the motorguide pedal is a rocker style and the speed adjustment is a round dial vs a slider. The dial would be easier for you to hit with your foot to adjust speed I would think. Thinking back at what a pain my powerdrive pedal was and that slider, that thing never worked well.
