The Speed Alert should be mounted securely on the dashboard where the LEDs can be clearly seen by the
driver. Mounting can be by two M3 screws from the underside or two M3 screws from the rear of the unit.
If mounting using M3 screws from the underside then please note the maximum thread depth is 8mm.

The 

SPEED-ALERT 

 from 

 is a dashboard mounted device that plugs into the car’s OBD2 socket and

is designed to alert a driver when they are approaching, or exceeding, a preset road speed. This can be used
for rally events where a maximum speed on stage is set and penalties applied to drivers who exceed it.

The Speed Alert therefore behaves in a similar way to a Sequential Shift Light where the multi-coloured LEDs
will begin to display at a speed that is below the maximum and increase as the maximum speed is approached
ending with a flashing display when maximum speed is exceeded.

The Speed Alert is plugged directly into the OBD2 port and is therefore compatible with most vehicles fitted
with this type of diagnostic connector. It is supplied with a dedicated 1.5 metre OBD2 cable and connector so
no additional wiring is necessary.

On first installation and power-up, the Speed Alert OBD2 will search for the correct OBD2 protocol and store
this to memory.

When the engine is switched off, the Speed Alert will enter sleep mode to minimise battery consumption but
will re-awake as soon as the engine is re-started.
