500AL

You must calibrate the unit before it will report the correct
speed distance, deceleration, and acceleration. Calibration
adjusts the unit to work properly with your vehicle’s VSS sig-
nal or with the vehicle’s differential and tire size.

Calibrating from the Software (VSS Only)

If you have the DriveRight Vehicle Management Software
and a VSS Trip 500AL, you may quickly and accurately cali-
brate the unit using the software, provided you know the
pulses per mile used by your vehicle’s VSS (vehicle speed
sensor). Contact your dealer’s service department for the
necessary information.

1. Install the DriveRight Vehicle Management Software.

2. Connect the Trip 500AL to your computer.

Consult the documentation supplied with the software
for instructions.

3. Start the DriveRight Vehicle Management Software.

4. Choose Set DriveRight from the DriveRight menu.

The Set DriveRight dialog box opens. You will see a VSS
Pulse button within this dialog box.
