Addendum: Power Distribution Block The power distribution block is included for your convenience and is not required that you use it. It makes it easy to power the 4 components in our system with just one power and one ground from the vehicle. It uses ¼” male spades for the input and ¼” female spades for the output.

Addendum: Emergency Lights & Manual Switch Important: When you are setting up the ‘recorder options’, you must go in to the ‘schedule record’ screen and change all of the ‘c’s to ‘a’s. ‘A’ tells the recorder to record when an alarm triggers. (‘C’ tells the recorder to record continuously.) There are 3 leads coming from the sensor harness.
