FORScan Modifications

[WLFPIR8]

Here's the modules that need changed in order to get the full Speed Limit Sign reading to work:

IPC > Traffic Sign Recognition = Enabled

IPMA > Traffic Sign Recognition = Speed Limit Information Function (SLIF) AND Traffic Sign Recognition Mode = Camera Only On (other modes cause errors).

This all add the options that need to be enabled in the dash menu:

Driver Assist > Traffic Signs > Always On (It will show up in the area highlighted when it detects a speed limit sign. It will time go blank when you slow down and stop/turn a corner of speed up a lot).

Excellent write up!!
A tip: the sign indication will revert to blank after making an indicated turn. I’m assuming this is done because the speed limit on the road you just turned on may have a new speed limit.

Also the speed limit warning function works as expected. You can set the number of mph above the posted speed limit for anything above 35 mph and below 35 mph.

Anyone know how to turn off DRL on a US truck?

You can do it in the dash settings. Don’t need Forscan.

Did my buddies 2020 f150 Navi while driving mod, now his back up camera doesn't respond. Any suggestions?

Restore the asbult and try again... The NAVI while driving one screws with the location in some way to trick it into thinking it's in a jurisdiction without hands free legislation. So I can't see why it would mess with the backup camera unless something was accidentally changed for it.

You can also do it by turning your light knob to the off position.

I’m thinking so. I’m not certain of any vehicles with the same IPC as the XLT that also have the IPMA. Unless the Lane Keep system is available on XLT then it should have the IPMA but might be missing the ICP operations needed to display it.

I have a XLT with Lane Keeping and I do have an IPMA. I will look into my IPC and see if it has a display for this. Need to fire up my Forscan anyway.

Success! I can confirm that the speed sign display and warning work on an XLT with Lane Keeping.

Now the question is what is the little circle to the left of the speed limit used to display? Oh by the way the speed limit flashes at you if you go over the threshold you set. Kind of cool, I may keep it.

Nice..thats a pretty neat feature. Maybe I need to start playing around with forscan

Congrats! You have managed to display an International speed limit display with English units for other displays but is the 25 kph or MPH? I am not sure what you mean for the left of the speed limit in this picture.

Yes it looks like an international speed limit display but that is MPH. It matches the physical speed limit sign it is seeing and the warning flashing follows the speed shown on the dash correctly. I watched the sign change and warn me and compared to my speedometer.

If you look just to the left of the international speed limit display there is the shadow of another circle. You can just make out the right side of that circle. Wondering if can display some other road sign?

Yep..saw this but was unsure if this was the camera or the actual display. Very weird...

The spot where the speed limit is looks like that when a speed limit is not displayed.

I’ve yet to see that other circle show anything, but the speed limit one is on the money with the actual speed limit.

I found this link from the AU Ranger. Looks like some models can show two traffic signs like you suspected.
