Tattle-Trail TTK 550wr is wireless towing monitor system that is permanently mounted to towed vehicles and checks for excess vibration. The transmitter (which is supplied in water resistant case that is permanently wired into the towed vehicle) is designed to sense vibration levels on enclosed trailers, horse trailers, open boats, or any other towed vehicles that do not provide protection from the weather and/or do not have windows to provide pathways for a wireless signal. The receiver (which mounts with hook/loop adhesive to the towing vehicle dashboard) is designed to be used in all towing vehicles including bus conversions, Class A, B, or C motorhomes, trucks and cars. In addition to the transmitter and receiver, the TTK 550wr system includes a power cord for the receiver with 12VDC plug (cigarette lighter), mounting hardware, instruction manual and quick reference help card. In operation, the TTK 550wr system continuously monitors for increased levels of vibration in the towed vehicle. Increased vibration may be the result of tire tread separation, loose or blown tires, broken suspension, loose hitch or ball or runaway vehicle. Any chassis vibration in the towed vehicle exceeding the user selected "normal" threshold (adjusted on the receiver while driving) generates both audible and visual alarms in the towing vehicle. The driver may then follow standard towing safety guidelines to stop and check the towed vehicle for problems, thereby reducing further damage and towing hazards. Additional features include a voltage monitor that alerts the user of a low battery condition in the towed vehicle, and a "Park" mode that monitors the towed vehicle for movement or break-in while parked. With the use of a 120VAC/12VDC adapter model (TTA 120), the towed vehicle (or boat moored at a dock or on davits) may be monitored for movement or break-in from a remote location (motel room, house, condo, etc.) up to 1000 feet away. The Tattle-Trail TTK 550wr is simple to install and easy to use. Simply attach the transmitter with screws and wire it to 12VDC in the towed vehicle and plug the receiver into the 12VDC receptacle of the towing vehicle. The transmitter and receiver communicate wirelessly with no additional wiring or calibration necessary. Adjust the receiver sensitivity with a single knob while driving to allow for current road conditions. The Tattle-Trail TTK 550wr provides peace of mind and allows the user to Tow with Confidence!
