En obrir el paquet, assegureu-vos que tots els articles hi siguin presents i en bon estat:
- B-Qtech Car Inclinometer Unit
- Power Cable (typically USB to cigarette lighter adapter)
- Mounting Pad/Bracket
- Manual d'usuari (aquest document)
3. Configuració i instal·lació
Follow these steps to properly install and set up your B-Qtech Car Inclinometer:
- Col·locació: Trieu una ubicació adequada al tauler de control que no us obstrueixi view of the road or interfere with airbag deployment. Ensure the device is level for accurate readings.
- Muntatge: Use the provided mounting pad or bracket to secure the inclinometer firmly to the dashboard. Clean the dashboard surface thoroughly before applying the adhesive.
- Connexió d'alimentació: Connect the power cable to the inclinometer and plug the other end into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket or a suitable USB power source. The device will power on automatically with the vehicle's ignition.
- Bloqueig GPS inicial: For the first use, park your vehicle in an open area with a clear view of the sky to allow the GPS module to acquire satellite signals. This may take a few minutes. Once locked, the GPS icon on the display will indicate a stable connection.
- Calibration (if necessary): The device typically self-calibrates. If you suspect inaccurate readings for pitch or roll, consult the operating section for manual calibration instructions (if available for your model).
4. Instruccions de funcionament
The B-Qtech Car Inclinometer offers a comprehensive suite of functions. Familiarize yourself with the display and controls for optimal use.
Imatge 4.1: Diagram illustrating the various functions displayed on the inclinometer screen, with numbered labels pointing to Speed, Roll angle, Set key, Start key, Tilt angle, GPS, Compass, Altitude, Clock, and Voltage.
4.1. Multi-Functional Display Overview
The device integrates 10 intelligent functions for comprehensive vehicle monitoring:
- Velocímetre: Displays real-time vehicle speed using GPS data.
- Tilt Angle (Roll and Pitch): Shows the vehicle's lateral (roll) and longitudinal (pitch) angles.
- Battery Voltmeter: Monitors the vehicle's battery voltage.
- Satellite Time: Displays current time synchronized via GPS.
- Brúixola: Provides real-time heading direction.
- Altitud: Shows current altitude based on GPS data.
- Coordenades: Mostra latitud i longitud.
- Overspeed/Fatigue Driving Alerts: Provides warnings for exceeding set speed limits or prolonged driving periods.
4.2. Roll Angle Display
The roll angle display indicates the vehicle's tilt from side to side, ranging from -40° to +40°. It accurately locates the slope angle on the left or right side. For safety, driving on slopes exceeding 40 degrees is not recommended, and the device will provide an alert if this threshold is approached.
Imatge 4.2: Visual representation of roll angle (uphill/downhill slope) and pitch angle (tilt to left/right) displays, showing vehicles on inclined surfaces. The device warns if the tilt angle exceeds 30 degrees to prevent rollover.
4.3. Pitch Angle Display
The pitch angle display shows the vehicle's incline or decline, also ranging from -40° to +40°. It accurately indicates the precise degree of uphill or downhill movement. Slope scale prompts are provided, and a warning is issued if the slope exceeds 40°.
4.4. Digital Speed Gauge
The digital display provides intuitive real-time vehicle speed. Utilizing GPS satellite positioning technology, the speed measurement accuracy is less than 0.36 km/h, ensuring reliable readings. The system also monitors driving conditions to prevent fatigue driving and overspeeding, enhancing safety.
Imatge 4.3: Display showing icons for 'Alarm when you drive for 4 hours' (fatigue warning) and 'Alarm if the speed exceeds 120km/h' (overspeed warning), indicating the device's safety features.
4.5. Real-time Voltage Seguiment
The inclinometer continuously monitors your vehicle's battery voltage (DC 5V-30V range with 0.5V accuracy). This feature helps prevent voltage-related issues such as breakdowns, starting difficulties, or affected headlights, and contributes to extending battery life.
Imatge 4.4: Close-up of the inclinometer display showing the real-time voltage reading (12.3V in the example), with a note on the voltage measurement range and accuracy.
4.6. GPS Satellite Positioning and Altimeter
The integrated GPS satellite positioning technology provides high-precision latitude and longitude coordinates, compass direction, and altitude data. The 32-channel high-performance GPS chip ensures accurate altitude readings, making it ideal for self-driving, off-road, and mountain climbing activities. The GPS compass automatically corrects and calibrates, overcoming vehicle magnetic field interference.
