Important:
You can change the speed pulse count to either fine tune the speed display,
or to set a known value from a similar vehicle. This is useful if a fleet consists of several
models of the same bus. By calibrating one bus, the speed pulse count can then be entered
into the DVRs for all of the similar buses. However, if a DVR is moved from one bus to
another, the speed may have to be recalibrated due to differences in transmissions, tires,
and other factors.
