Plug one end of the short black cable (which has a telephone style
connection on each end) into the Snap-In
tm
Weather Module and the other end
into the outer jack on top of the Eliminator 2000 (NOT THE CENTER JACK).
Telephone cables that you may have at home may fit in this jack but will not
work!
Turn on the Eliminator 2000. Use the up/down arrow keys to select
Race/Wx Logging and depress the "STAGE/Enter" Key. The Eliminator will
indicate that it is trying to find the weather module and this time it will respond with
a "Calibration Mismatch". This indicates that the weather module is there, but
there are no calibration values that match the Snap-In
tm
Weather Module.
Pressing any key will bring you to the calibration screen where you can enter
the calibration values of your Snap-In
tm
Weather Module. The calibration
information is located on the side of your Snap-In
tm
Weather Module. There are 4
values that you must enter when prompted by the Eliminator 2000. A default
value will appear for each setting. Make sure that you enter each number into
your Eliminator 2000 carefully. You can use the "left /right" arrow keys to edit.
After you verify a correct entry, depress the "STAGE/Enter" Key to move to the
next entry value. Once all four values are entered the Eliminator 2000 will prompt
you to press the “STAGE/Enter” Key to save the information. If any value was
entered wrong, at this time you can press the “STAGE/Escape” Key to exit the
calibration screen and not save any of the calibration values. You must then
press the “3” key to return to the calibration screen and reenter the calibration
values. If all values were entered properly you can press the “STAGE/Enter” Key
and the Eliminator 2000 will save the calibration values and restart itself for the
calibration values to become effective.
Verify Operation
Once the Eliminator has restarted select the "Race/Wx Logging" Menu item
and depress "STAGE/Enter". This time the Snap-In
tm
Weather Module should be
detected and you will immediately be prompted to enter the date and time. This
means that the weather station is operating correctly and is recognized by the
Eliminator 2000.
Use the Snap-In
tm
Weather Module Instruction manual to use and
understand the features and power of this Weather Station. Use the Windows
software to get all of the power out of your weather station so that you can
optimize the performance of your race vehicle in just about any weather condition.
