3.1 – Sensors Setup (Menu<Control panel<Sensors Setup)
This additional function appears only when MyChron4 is connected to MyChron
Expansion or to eBox. Here below is the menu.
All channels default setting is “None” and each type of sensor can be set on one channel
only.
Channel 1 can be configured as analog or digital: it can support a speed sensor and
shows the speed value on the display. “Speed” is thereby included in this channel
available options as shown here above.
Channels from 2 to 4 can support different sensors and the different labels are written
bold in the following list.
• Brake pressure sensor (PresBrk);
• Magnetic position sensor: shows exhaust gas valve opening in mm (GasValve);
• Magnetic position sensor: shows the throttle opening percentage, needs calibration
and its working range is 0-100% (MagThrot);
• Magnetic position sensor: shows brake pedal percentage of travel and its working
range is 0-100% (MagBrk);
• Temperature Sensor: shows kart cooling water temperature (WaterTemp)
• Temperature
Sensor: shows Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT)
• Throttle Potentiometer: shows throttle pedal percentage of travel and needs
calibration (Throt);
• Brake Potentiometer: shows brake pedal percentage of travel and needs calibration
(PotBrk);
• Steering Potentiometer: is a mid zero potentiometer, shows the steering movement
in a range -100/+100 and needs calibration (Steer)
• Generic sensor for custom measurement: is a zero based potentiometer and shows
sampled values in a 0-100 range (0-100).
Once all connected sensors are set it is necessary to set pressure measure unit and to
calibrate sensors that need it.
Selecting “View sensors” the display shows sensors instant values and allows the
calibration needed.
