power itself on and off. The power operation is configurable
and specifies how the DVM will operate when the vehicle
ignition is turned to the ON or OFF positions.
During the boot process, the splash screen to the right is
displayed and contains the unit serial number and firmware
version. Once powered on the blue status indicator remains
on.
To power the unit off, turn off the vehicle’s ignition. If configured, the Ignition Shutdown
Timer will begin and the unit will either power off or enter
