6.5 SPEEDOMETER VERIFICATION
Before the Raptor RP-1 can be used with the Vehicle Speed
Sensor (VSS) pulse input, the radar unit must be
synchronized with the speedometer. From the main
Enforcement screen follow these steps to synchronize with
the speedometer.
1.
After installation and initial testing with tuning forks,
the Raptor RP-1 should be driven at a constant speed,
between 40 and 70 mph (64 and 112 km/h). Press the
Menu (
) switch to go to the main menu screen.
2.
Use the Up / Down switches to highlight the
ADVANCED selection and press ENTER to go to the
Advanced menu screen.
3.
Use the Up / Down switches to highlight the VSS
SETUP selection and press ENTER to go to the VSS
Setup screen. The current Synchronization number will
be displayed on this screen.
4.
Use the Up / Down switches to highlight the SYNC TO
VSS selection and press ENTER to go to the Sync
Radar to VSS screen. The current Patrol Speed as read
by the Radar will be displayed on this screen.
5.
Verify the patrol speedometer and the radar patrol
speed displayed agree within reasonable limits, and
then press ENTER. This tells the radar that the current
speedometer pulses (speed) and the Doppler patrol
signal (radar patrol speed) agree.
