Complete "INITIAL CONSOLE PROGRAMMING" in the Installation and Service Manual for
your Console. Select SP2 for correct operation of radar. If your Console does
not have SP1/SP2 select, you must either update your Console's program, or use
a radar adapter (P/N 063-0159-590).

Read DISTANCE by depressing key labelled
.
DISTANCE display should read a value of approximately 5280 [1000]. If it reads
between 5260-5300 [990-1010], the SPEED CAL is 598 [1520].
If the DISTANCE display reads any other value, divide SPEED CAL by the value
observed in DISTANCE, then multiply by 5280 [1000]. This will give you the correct
value to enter for SPEED CAL. Round off to the nearest 3 digit number.
