Startup (Welcome) Mode

The IPC  provides a startup mode also known as a welcome strategy. When the vehicle receives a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) request, the IPC  illuminates the gauge pointers and graduation bars. When the key is inserted into the ignition switch, the IPC  illuminates only the graduation bars. When the ignition is placed into the RUN or START position, the IPC  begins its prove-out stage.

During the prove-out stage, the IPC  sweeps then zeros all gauges while illuminating all LED indicators for a predetermined time.
