Introduction
Your Viper PowerSports VPS450 GPS system secures your vehicle
with built-in starter disable feature and GPS location. It prevents
the vehicle from being started, or sends you alerts if your vehicle is
stolen or moved without permission.
In order to optimize the battery life of your powersports vehicle,
the VPS450 is kept in sleep mode at all times unless woken up by
specific activity:
Device Status Description
Ignition ON Stays awake as long as the ignition is ON.
Vehicle Movements
Stays awake as long as there is movement, unless the
water mode is ON.
Check IN
The device will wake up and report once every 25
hours or once every 5 hours if the water mode is ON.
Alerts
The device wakes up with any related alerts sets, un-
less the water mode is ON. (see “Alert” on page 8
for features available).
Override
Input from the local override switch will wake up the
device for a short period of time.
Notes: Locate requests, starter disable commands and alert pro-
gramming changes can only be sent when the device is awake.
Using the local override switch
Turn the ignition ON, wait 10-15 seconds to make sure the system
is awake, then press the override switch and crank the starter. The
starter disable condition will stay active until an enable command
is sent from the mobile app.

Important: The VPS450 can take 45-60 seconds to connect to
the cellular network after it wakes up and will not respond to
commands until connected.
To ensure that you can start your vehicle quickly and easily in
remote areas where cellular coverage may be poor, we rec-
ommend that your authorized Viper Powersports dealer always
installs the local override switch. This allows you to securely start
the vehicle even if the device is out of contact with the network.
Downloading the Mobile Application.
Viper Powersports vehicles are supported by the Viper SmartStart
app, putting control of all of your vehicles at your fingertips.

control. If you want to change the selected vehicle, tap its name
and choose another vehicle from the horizontal list. The vehicle
starter can be disabled by pressing the button.* When the button

vehicle is asleep, you can send a scheduled start enable com-
mand, which will execute shortly after the next time the vehicle

Vehicle Settings
Tap the vehicle name in the header bar, then vehicle settings at
bottom of the page. You can enter your vehicle information in the
spaces provided.
Personalize your app by tapping the vehicle image link to add
a picture of your vehicle. (Note: if you did not allow the app to

Select Icon: This feature allows you to choose which type of icon
represents your vehicle on the map for GPS location. You can se-
lect an icon showing a classic car, side-by-side, ATV, motorcycle,
snowmobile, recreational vehicle, boat, personal watercraft, etc.
Water Mode: Select Water Mode to prevent the system from wak-
ing up in boats or watercraft that are left in the water. This prevents
excess battery consumption due to rocking motion or bumping
against piers or buoys etc. With this mode active, the system will
only wake up if it detects ignition ON.
To limit the distance the boat could be moved without being locat-
ed, in Water Mode the system will automatically log its location
with the server every 5 hours instead of the usual 25 hour interval.
The additional location checks will cause a slight increase in over-
all battery consumption.

Notifications: Push notifications are set up automatically as long
as you opted in during initial launch of the app, and have not
changed the phone’s notification settings for the Viper SmartStart
app.
You can also opt to receive SMS and/or email notifications by
adding your phone number and carrier information and email ad-
dress on the notifications page and saving those changes. SMS
and email alerts are set OFF by default.
