diagnose and operate the vehicle for a very limited amount of time without having to un-install
the device, or take a Breath Test. It requires a phone call from the mechanic to your Service
Provider.
Siren
– This is the Alarm Siren that may have been included in your Interlock System
installation.
Stall Protection
– A short period of 2 minutes after the engine is turned off for any reason
(including engine stall), during which time an immediate restart is available (without the need to
take a Start Test) to ensure the driver is able to quickly move from an unsafe location (i.e.
railroad tracks, a busy intersection, etc.) in the event of an engine stall
.
WARNING: This
function is not available if the motor turns off during a Running Test Request.
Starts Test
– The Breath Test taken to allow you to start your vehicle.
Temporary Lockout
– A short period of time, typically 5 or 45 minutes, when vehicle Start is
not permitted. This occurs after a failed Start Test. The first failure will normally result in a 5
minute lockout. If the next test is also a failure, the next lockout will be for 45 minutes.
Visual Alert Device (VAD)
– This is a small flashing light that can be installed (as an option) on
the vehicle dashboard for hearing impaired users. This will alert the user (who may not hear the
audible prompts and messages) that new information (text) is being displayed on the unit’s LCD
display that requires their attention when they can safely do so. Your Service Provider may also
offer this (for a fee), if you feel you need it due to a high level of vehicle or road noise.
Warn
– A Breath Test result equal to or greater than the Warn Level set by your State Agency,
but below the Fail Level.
Warning
– Any caution message the device issues due to a user error or upcoming violation.
These include the detection of a level of Breath Alcohol below your set Fail Level, accidentally
trying to start your vehicle before taking a test, driving your vehicle close to a restricted drive
time (if applicable) and a variety of other events.
