When the engine speed exceeds the warning value set as the tachometer warning1 in the setting of tachometer
warning, the green LED lights up. When the engine speed exceeds the tachometer warning2, the green and red
LEDs blink. The tachometer warning2 cannot be set in the setting of tachometer warning.
The actual vehicle speed is displayed digitally and the engine speed is displayed in the
bar section. When the engine speed exceeds the warning value set as the tachometer
warning1 in the setting of tachometer warning, the green LED lights up. When the engine
speed exceeds the tachometer warning2, the green and red LEDs blink.
Pressing the PEAK button during the Real Mode will bring up the Peak Mode. Recorded
peak values for the speed and the engine speed will be displayed. Pressing the PEAK
button again during the Peak Mode will return to the Real Mode.
During either the Real Mode or the Peak Mode, the peak values will be reset by pressing
and holding the PEAK button for more than two seconds.

When the UP button of the Defi-Link Control Unit II is pressed in the Peak Mode(or when
the PEAK button of the Defi-Link Control Unit is pressed and held for more than two
seconds in any of Real Mode, Peak Mode or Warning Mode), the peak values will be reset.
If Special Display Mode is set at 1 or 2, the special display will start when the vehicle speed
continues 0km/h or 0MPH for more than 10 seconds in the Real Mode. In this mode, the engine
speed or the segment animation is played. When the speed gets to more than 0km/h or 0MPH
or when any button of the D.C.Unit is pressed, the display will return to the Real Mode.

This Warm-Up Mode is available when either a water temperature sensor or an oil temperature sensor is
connected to the Defi-Link Control Unit II（or the Defi-Link Control Unit) and the setting of Warm-Up is completed.
After the Opening Mode, the Warm-Up Mode starts if the sensor data is below the set value. During this mode,
leftmost digital segments are lighted in order. If the displayed data is changed by pressing the SELECT button
during this mode, the unit of temperature blinks(℃/°F). When the temperature reaches the set value, the Warm-
Up Mode is completed and returns to the Real Mode.
This Control Output function is available when either a water temperature sensor or an oil temperature sensor is
connected to the Defi-Link Control Unit II（or the Defi-Link Control Unit) and the setting of the Control Output is
completed. When the temperature reaches the set value, the Control Output signal is read out to the terminal of
CONT. OUT of the D.C.Unit.

Setting Error of the number of cylinders
"x1000RPM" blinks if the number of cylinders of the Defi-Link Control Unit II(or the Defi-
Link Control Unit) is not set or if the METER OUTPUT2 connector of the Defi-Link
Control Unit II and the LINK connector of the D.C.Unit are connected by error.
Note: The Real Mode will turn to the Rec Mode only when the speed is more than 1km/h (1MPH). The speed is not
recorded if the REC button is pressed When the speed is 0km/h(0MPH) and Real Mode will turn to the Play Mode.
When the vehicle is moving at the speed of 1km/h(1MPH) or more, connected sensor
data and the speed data are recorded for a maximum of 3 minutes by pressing the REC

Note: Operation needs to be performed while the vehicle is stationary. If the PLAY button is pressed in vehicle's running
condition, speed data will not be played back but the Play Mode will turn to the Rec Mode and the speed data is
overwritten.
Note: Connect IGN(12V) to 12V line on ignition switch for sure. Power of a connected product is not turned off if
IGN(12V) is connected to battery(+) line.
When the vehicle speed is 0km/h(0MPH), recorded data are displayed by pressing the
PLAY button of the Defi-Link Control Unit II(or by pressing the PLAY/REC button of the
Defi-Link Control Unit during Peak Mode). "P" is displayed during playing of data. Data
displayed in the digital and bar display section can be changed by pressing the
SELECT/BAR SELECT button.
