The TDS Detector incorporates a Time, Distance and average Speed calculator and Digital Speedometer built into one compact instrument. In the Speedometer mode of operation the TDS Detector functions as a digital speedometer, in TDS mode it measures Time and Distance and self calculates average Speed at the end of a measurement cycle, displaying all three and eliminating the need to conduct the calculation manually. Simply press the MODE button to toggle between operating modes. |

In TDS mode the TDS Detector utilises three push button switches to control the start and end of time and distance measurement sequences giving the user the ability to start and end time and distance measurements separately using the TIME and DISTANCE switches or synchronise when time and distance measurements start or end using the SYNCH/LOCK switch. To eliminate time or distance display rollover during long pursuits, both the TIME and DISTANCE displays have 5 digits giving a distance measurement capability of 99999 metres and for time, 9999.9 seconds. In Speedometer mode the TDS Detector acts as a time averaged speedometer giving +/- 2 KPH accuracy across its full measurement range. Speeds can be locked into the SPEED display using the SYNCH/LOCK switch. Programming the TDS Detector is simple and easy with the calibration being conducted by driving over a 500 metre distance. The calibration factor is stored in non-volatile memory so that it is not lost. On power up the calibration factor is displayed as part of the self test routine. For applications where a data logger or in car video are installed the TDS Detector has an integrated serial port with a selectable output format to suit either direct data output or for video applications, an output to drive a dedicated video convertor card, which overlays all data displayed on the TDS Detector onto both the video image and the video recording. An optional GPS interface is available with the video convertor card. Self contained the TDS Detector is the ideal Time Distance and Speed measurement instrument.
