How to install MyChron 3 Plus/Gold/Gold XG
Now you can start installing your MyChron 3 Plus/Gold/Gold XG on your
car/bike.
It is recommended to follow these instructions in order to preserve your
instrument and to capture consistent and accurate data.
We remind you that your MyChron 3 Plus/Gold/Gold XG is not equipped with
internal batteries, and so it needs to be powered by an external power source (the
car / bike battery).
The first installation step consists in mounting the Gauge in your car’s
(motorbike’s) cockpit. It is recommended to choose a place where the instrument
will not be in contact with oil or fuel, make sure that the gauge is not installed too
close to heat sources and protect the instrument from vibrations.
In order to correctly measure the lateral g-force using the internal accelerometer
(MyChron 3 Gold only), it is suggested to install the gauge with the display
perpendicular to the vehicle’s speed.
Installing MyChron 3 Gold XG
Your MyChron 3 Gold XG is composed of two separate objects (the display unit
and the Junction box) connected by a pig-tail cable.
