Display determines if it should record/play according to vehicle’s running/stopped condition.

Pressing the Control Unit REC/PLAY button in either Gauge Mode, Speed Mode or Triple Warning Mode will start
recording of all data for meters connected to Control Unit and speed data for a maximum of 40 seconds. When 40
seconds elapses, the unit will return to the mode used before recording started.
To stop recording before the 40 second maximum elapses, press the REC/PLAY button again, and the unit will return
to the mode used before recording started.
Speed can be recorded during vehicle running by pressing the REC/PLAY button.
* Recording of speed data will be interrupted if wiring disconnection or short circuit occurs during recording.
* The unit cannot record while the vehicle is stopped even if the REC/PLAY button is pressed.

• PLAY

After recording, pressing the Control Unit REC/PLAY button when PEAK values are being displayed will start playing
of all recorded meter data or speed data for a maximum of 40 seconds. When playing is completed, or when the
REC/PLAY button is pressed again, the unit will return to the mode used before playing started.
Speed can be played by pressing the REC/PLAY button while in PEAK Mode when the vehicle is stopped. If PAUSE is
pressed during speed playback, the unit will return to Real Mode.
* Recording of speed data will be interrupted if wiring disconnection or short circuit occurred during recording.
* The unit cannot play while the vehicle is running even if the REC/PLAY button is pressed.

• PEAK Display

Pressing the Control Unit PEAK/RESET button in either Gauge Mode, Speed Mode or Triple Warning Mode will
display recorded peak values from all meter data or speed data.
Pressing the PEAK/RESET button again will return the unit to the mode used before peak display started.
Pressing the Control Unit PEAK/RESET button for 2 seconds while a peak value is displayed will reset the peak value.

8. Warm-Up

Mode

(This screen monitors water temperature until it reaches a set value.)

When Warm-Up is turned on in Set Up Mode and the water temperature sensor is connected to Control Unit II or
Control Unit, the Warm-Up Mode activates after Opening Mode is completed. The “Warm-up” notice and current
water temperature are displayed until the temperature reaches the set value.
When the temperature reaches the set value, the warm-up completed “Ready” notice is displayed for 5 seconds and
the unit returns to the display mode used before the ignition was turned off (Speed Mode, Gauge Mode or Triple
Warning Mode). Factory setting is Gauge Mode.

Water temperature of 20C (68F) or below is displayed as “ - - -”.

If the MODE SELECT button or SET UP button is pressed before water temperature reaches the set value, the unit will
switch to the other mode (except for Warning Setup Mode or Set Up Mode) and a “C” symbol will appear in the
upper left corner of the screen until the temperature reaches the set value.

9. Self-Diagnosis

Function

(This screen displays serial errors, opens and shorts for each sensor of meters
connected to Defi-Link Control Unit II or Defi-Link Control Unit when ignition is
on. If an error message is displayed, check the item and take appropriate
action.)

1 Serial Error Function

This function notifies of communications that have been interrupted between the meter and the Control Unit.

2 Disconnection (Open) Check Function

This function notifies that a wire disruption, disconnection or improper wiring connection has occurred at the sensor

Defi-Link Sensor Set

Sensor sets include the meter sensor and sensor wire for connection to Defi-Link Control Unit II or Defi-Link Control
Unit.
If one of the following sensor sets is connected to Defi-Link Control Unit II or Defi-Link Control Unit, Defi-Link Display
can be used for displaying values even without a meter.

6. REPLAY Display, PEAK Display

(This screen records vehicle data for meters connected to Defi-Link Control Unit II
or Defi-Link Control Unit or it replays the recorded data or displays data peaks.)
* Does not display data for Turbo Meter or Tachometer.

1 When connected to Defi-Link Control Unit II.

Care must be used in operation because Defi-Link Control Unit II operation differs from Defi-Link Display; Defi-Link
Display determines if it should record/play according to vehicle’s running/stopped condition.

• REC (Recording)

Pressing the Control Unit II REC button in either Gauge Mode, Speed Mode or Triple Warning Mode will start
recording of all data for meters connected to Control Unit II and speed data for a maximum of 3 minutes. When 3
minutes elapses, the unit will return to the mode used before recording started.
To stop recording before the 3 minute maximum elapses, press the REC button again, and the unit will return to the
mode used before recording started.
Speed can be recorded during vehicle running by pressing the REC button.

• PLAY

Pressing the Control Unit II PLAY button in either Gauge Mode, Speed Mode or Triple Warning Mode will start playing
of all recorded meter data or speed data for a maximum of 3 minutes. When playing is completed, or when the PLAY
button is pressed again, the unit will return to the mode used before playing started.

2. Warning Setup Mode

(This screen allows setting of warnings for meters connected to
Defi-Link Control Unit II or Defi-Link Control Unit.)

* Each time the WARN SET button of Defi-Link Control Unit II or the SELECT button of Defi-Link Control Unit is

pressed, the meter available for setting will change in the Warning Setup Mode.

The value of the setting is adjusted by pressing the UP button or DOWN button of
Defi-Link Control Unit II or Defi-Link Control Unit.
* The resolution of the UP button or DOWN button is adjusted to the analog meter.
Because of the difference in step values, the Display value changes differently in
