2.3 System Mode Selection:
The P24 supports both OBD and GPS modes. The device will automatically attempt to connect via OBD first. If your vehicle is not OBD2 compatible (e.g., older models before 2008), or if the OBD mode causes issues, the device can be switched to GPS mode.
- OBD Mode: Applicable to most OBD2 compliant vehicles manufactured after 2008. Provides comprehensive vehicle data.
- GPS Mode: Compatible with all car models as it receives signals from satellites. Displays speed, altitude, time, and other GPS-derived data.
The mode can be switched during boot-up or via the system settings. Refer to the 'Operating Instructions' section for detailed steps on switching modes.
Figure 2.4: The P24 supports three modes: OBD, GPS, and Slope Meter, which can be switched as needed.

- Cable Care: Ensure the OBD cable is not pinched or excessively bent, which could damage the internal wires.
5. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your P24 Head-Up Display.
5.1 Device Does Not Power On:
- Check Connection: Ensure the OBD cable is securely plugged into both the P24 unit and the vehicle's OBD2 port.
- Vehicle Ignition: Confirm the vehicle's ignition is on. The device powers on with the car.
- Cable Integrity: Inspect the OBD cable for any visible damage.
5.2 No Data Displayed in OBD Mode:
- Vehicle Compatibility: OBD mode is generally compatible with vehicles manufactured after 2008. If your car is older, it might not support OBD2 or a specific protocol.
- Switch to GPS Mode: If OBD mode is not working, switch the device to GPS mode. The GPS system is universally compatible as it relies on satellite signals.
- OBD Port Functionality: Ensure your vehicle's OBD2 port is functioning correctly. You can test it with another OBD device if available.
5.3 Inaccurate Slope Meter Readings:
- Calibration: Calibrate the slope meter on a flat, level surface as described in Section 3.5.
- Vehicle Movement: Ensure the vehicle is stationary and on a truly flat surface during calibration.
5.4 Compass/Direction Display is Unstable:
- Interference: Magnetic interference from other electronic devices or strong magnetic fields in the vehicle can affect the compass. Try repositioning the device slightly.
- GPS Signal: Ensure the device has a clear view of the sky for optimal GPS signal reception, which is crucial for accurate direction.
