About Screen Blanking
The CV41 supports screen blanking. When motion is detected, a screen blanking box or

Honeywell recommends that you use the screen blanking box to enable screen blank-
ing on the CV41. If your vehicle lacks an electrical signal that detects vehicle motion,
use a switch to enable screen blanking.
You can install the switch in a variety of ways, but Honeywell recommends you install a
switch that closes when the user presses the accelerator pedal on a vehicle.
Honeywell does not sell a switch for screen blanking, but you can purchase a screen
blanking box from Honeywell. For more information, contact your Honeywell represen-
tative.
