36 Dash Manager Software
Changing the Configuration
Once an existing configuration file has been opened, or a new one created
the various parts of the configuration may be modified by choosing the
appropriate items from the main menu. The configuration setup items are
accessed from the main menu items: Inputs, Calculations and Functions.
Setup Details
For details on each of the ADL2 Dash Manager setup screens click on the
Help button that is provided on each screen.
Configuration Sequence
The configuration is best setup in the following order:
1. Inputs (Input Pins & Communications)
2. Calculations (Lap Time, Fuel Prediction etc)
3. Functions (Logging, Display, Alarms, Auxiliary Outputs etc)
This simplifies the setup procedure by ensuring that the required channels are
available for the functions that use them.
• Note that channels cannot be used until they have been generated by an
input, calculation or function.
