is less than 10V the display will shut off to
allow the batteries a chance to recharge)

UNCHECK
if you wish to collect traffic statistics in
Stealth Mode to get a baseline of how fast the speeds are on the road in question.
5)
Speed Limit
–
Enter the speed limit of the road where the sign is installed. The speed limit is only used
to qualify a speeder vs. a non
-
speeder and has no effect on the display.
6)
Minimum Display Speed
–
Set the speed to the lowest level you would like the radar sign display to
activate. (Guidance: most customers select a speed matching or a few miles per hour below the posted
speed limit.
Setting this number too low will simply annoy drivers who are not speeding.)
If there is no
approaching traffic, the display will be blank.
7)
Maximum Display Speed
–
Set for the highest speed you wish the sign display to remain active,
usually no more than 20 mph higher than the speed limit. This is used to ensure drivers do not try to
‘
race
’
up the sign to unsafe speeds. Above this speed the Over Max Speed behavior is active.
8)
Over Max Behavior
–
Indicates the sign alert display when a vehicle is travelling faster than the max
speed selection. Choose either
Dashes
, or
Blank
(sign goes dark).
