Your Viper PowerSports VPS450 GPS system secures your vehicle
with built-in starter disable feature and GPS location. It prevents
the vehicle from being started, or sends you alerts ifyour vehicle is
stolen or moved without permission.
In order to optimize the battery life of your powersports vehicle,
the VPS450 is kept in sleep mode at all times unless woken up by
specific activity:

Important: The VPS450 can take 45-60 seconds to connect to
the cellular network after it wakes up and will not respond to
commands until connected.
To ensure that you can start your vehicle quickly and easily in
remote areas where cellular coverage may be poor, we rec-
ommend that your authorized Viper Powersports dealer always
installs the local override switch. This allows you to securely start
the vehicle even if the device is out of contact with the network.
