Startup, Initial Setup, and Setup Wizards
Using the Product Control Setup Wizard
1. Touch the Product Control Setup Wizard icon to begin the setup wizard. The Speed Cal screen will display.
2. Use the radio buttons toward the left side of the screen to select the type of speed sensor which will be
used with the control system.
3. Touch the button labeled ‘Speed Cal’ and use the on-screen keypad to enter the calibration value for the
speed sensor installed on the vehicle. Refer to the Speed section on page 101 for more information about
the speed cal value.
Raven Industries recommends the following speed calibration values for initial system setup.
These values are good starting points and generally yield adequate results, however, the speed cal should
be refined for each specific vehicle and speed sense system. See Appendix A, Calculating the Calibration
Values, for instructions on refining the speed cal value.
Note: The GPS speed over CANbus feature is only available with specific Raven speed sense nodes.
This feature utilizes NMEA speed over ground data transmitted over the CAN network which
eliminates the need for a separate, external speed sensor.
The test speed and distance values are not required to complete initial setup of the field computer.
Refer to the System Menu section on page 93 for detailed information about these settings.

NOTICE
When using the GPS speed over CANbus
feature, no calibration or adjustment is
necessary or recommended to the speed cal
value. Losing GPS signal for more than a
second will also result in loss of the CAN speed
signal which may affect product application in
progress.
