Resetting the Speed Tracker 

There is no ON/OFF switch supplied with the Speed Tracker. The tracker immediately powers on when the 
power source is connected. There is also no reset button on the controller card included with this tracker. As 
a result, we recommend that you use the following procedure to turn the tracker OFF and ON, or reset the 
tracker. 

To reset the Speed Tracker:

1.

Open the tracker enclosure.

On the inside of the rear panel you will see the rechargeable battery and connectors.

2.

Disconnect the  two connectors. This turns the tracker off.

3.

Wait a couple of seconds then reconnect the connectors. The tracker will immediately power on.

ARNING

It is vitally important, whenever you close the tracker, that you close and lock 

all 

of the 

latches properly to avoid water infiltration as this could damage the tracker and void your warranty.
