Trip Computer: Description and Operation

OVERHEAD TRAVEL INFORMATION SYSTEM
Overhead Travel Information System (OTIS) is a module with six informational displays which can be displayed using the four outer buttons. When the vehicle is first turned ON:
- OTIS blanks the display for a half second
- Illuminates all segments of the vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) at full brightness for one and a half seconds
- Displays whatever was being viewed when the ignition was last turned OFF.

OTIS may also be integrated with the Universal Transmitter. If so, your OTIS module will have three buttons centered together between the outer four buttons. Below the three buttons are corresponding dots to indicate which button you are using.

THERE ARE 6 DISPLAYS:
- Compass/Temperature
- Average fuel economy
- Distance to empty
- Instantaneous fuel economy
- Trip odometer
- Elapsed time

The buttons operate when the ignition is in the ON position. The VFD will display the last display before ignition was turned OFF. The four outer buttons operate:
- STEP
- C/T - Compass/Temperature
- US/M - English/Metric
- RESET
