To replace its battery, remove the small Phillips head screw located on the

8. PROGRAMMING THE DISPLAY
The speed codes and their meanings
Read over the following programming codes listed in the Speed Code Table below to
become familiar with the two-letter groups (modes) you want to set in the sign using the
push button. Concentrate on the “Normal Mode” (NM) and “Violator Alerts” (VA) modes
only, for now.
Notice that they are grouped so that for
example, when “VA” is selected, you
can set the “Minimum Speed”, Flash (speed), Blank (speed), etc. As the last numbers are
entered, the display is ready and goes blank.

SETTING THE SIGN IN “NORMAL MODE”
The simplest mode to put the sign into is the “NM” (Normal Mode). Instructions:
1. Turn the power on with the key. After the brightness number changes, start pushing the
button and stop on the two letter code “NM”.
2. As the display goes dark, it is now running in “Normal Mode”. In other words, the sign
will display the speed of oncoming vehicles from 5 mph (down to 1 mph is also
available, see Advance Features Section) to 99 MPH without showing any alerts. So for
this code only, no further programming would be needed.
