The speedometer features a red backlight for clear visibility and is designed for 12V/24V systems. It displays current speed and accumulated distance (ODO).
2. Installation Instructions
2.1 Mounting the Gauge
- Cut a 52mm (2 1/16") diameter hole in the panel. Ensure a clearance of 70mm (2 3/4") behind the panel for the gauge.
- Insert the gauge into the prepared hole.
- Secure the gauge using the provided M4 nut and C-type bracket.

2.2 GPS Antenna Placement
For optimal performance, the GPS antenna requires a clear view of the sky to receive satellite signals. Follow these guidelines:
- Securely fasten the antenna in a flat position with the black side facing upwards.
- Ideally, place the antenna outside the vehicle or inside the front windscreen.
- Connect the antenna cable to the socket at the back of the gauge. Do not cut the antenna cable.

2.3 Wiring Connections
Connect the wires as follows:
- Red Wire: +9-32VDC (Power Supply)
- Blue Wire: Ground (-)
- Orange Wire: Red Backlight (+)

After connecting the wires, turn on the power. The meter will begin searching for a GPS signal. It typically takes about 30 seconds to acquire a signal for the first time. Subsequent signal acquisition usually takes less than 3 seconds, especially with a clear view of the sky.
3. Operation
3.1 Display Information
The speedometer displays the following information:
- Current Speed: Displays the real-time speed.
- ODO (Odometer): Shows the accumulated total distance. This value is stored and does not reset when power is off.
- SOG (Speed Over Ground): Refers to the speed relative to the ground position.

3.2 Unit Adjustment
To adjust the unit of measurement (KM/H, MPH, KNOTS), press the black button located on the back of the gauge. The selected unit will be saved automatically.

The gauge features a red backlight for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions.
4. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your GPS speedometer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- No GPS Signal: If the display shows an error or does not acquire a signal, ensure the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky and is securely connected. Reconnect all wires and restart the device if necessary.
- Error Code E01: Indicates the GPS cannot search for a signal when powered on. Check antenna connection and placement.
- Error Code E02: Indicates GPS signal was lost during operation. Verify antenna placement and ensure no obstructions are blocking the signal.
- Error Code E03: Indicates an internal circuit fault within the instrument. Contact customer support if this error persists.
