Speed Pulse
Count
The DVR records vehicle speed by counting the number of
pulses received either from a vehicle speed sensor or a vehicle
Transmission Control Module (TCM). Calibrate the DVR to
the vehicle’s speed signal by driving for one mile or kilometer
in Calibration Mode. The DVR counts the pulses from the
speed sensor and then converts a pulse rate into speed. The
actual distance driven during calibration determines the unit
of the speed.
For example, to have speed recorded in MPH, drive for one
mile in Calibration Mode. To have speed recorded in KPH,
drive for one kilometer. The speed pulse count increments as
the vehicle travels.

Calibrate When calibrating speed, it is best to use known road markers
to determine a mile or a kilometer, as reading the odometer
may introduce errors.
• Press Calibrate to begin calibration.
• Press Stop after driving exactly one mile or kilometer.
