Here we have the long awaited JRP GPS Speed module, these little devices are used to generate an analog style speed pulse signal which can be used with our 14in1 Multi Gauge, or 95mm Speedo gauge. Until now, if our customers wanted to have speed hooked up to these gauges, they required a speed sensor already in the vehicle which was compatible with our systems. And being a lot of our gauges end up in older diesel 4x4 vehicles, or even some older performance cars, there was not a compatible speed sensor installed on those vehicles and so they wouldn’t have been able to get speed.
So in we come with a great little solution for our customers, the JRP GPS speed sensor kits consist of a GPS antenna and a little module box that can translate the GPS speed received into an analog 5v square wave pulse signal that can be used to generate speed for our gauges and others relatively easy.
Until now, most customers who really wanted speed had to resort to using our cheaper HALL effect sensors, these needed to have a little magnet secured to tail shafts, flywheels, even wheels to be able to generate a speed signal. Along with that, the actual HALL effect sensor itself needed to be mounted within no more than 10mm from the magnet, this will fiddly and awkward to install, lots of flying magnets if not doing right.
While this little kits are not as cheap as doing the HALL effect way of going, they certainly are a lot simpler to install which makes up for the price difference in our opinion. So if you are after getting speed display on our gauges, or even if not our gauges and have another device such as a datalogger that it would be very handy to have a speed signal into, these little JRP GPS speed sensor kits are an amazing little device, and really don’t break the bank either.
Any questions in regards to how these little devices work, please feel free to give our tech staff a yell and they will be only to happy to assist with your enquiry. We are really building up a great database of sensor signal generators, adapters and more, a lot of workshops are going to be thankful for this expansion in our range.
