LV1 FUNCTIONS for the New 3PK User and the Racers and Experts Alike
Level Selection
LEVEL-SEL
Levels
LV1, LV2, LV3
DEFINITION: Selects the complexity of functions displayed on the menu screens.
Includes 3 levels of flexibility to simplify programming for new users and the
most flexible system in the world to those who wish to use it.
AVAILABLE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL MODEL:
•
Selection of a lower level simply hides the higher level features from the menu;
however, setups in the higher level menus remain intact and as set prior to
changing the level.
•
Model reset clears all functions including those not visible in the displayed menus.
ADJUSTABILITY:
•
Level 1 (Learning the system; quick setups, a single menu with enough features for most models.)
LV1
•
Level 2 (Expands upon Level 1 menu, with many race-ready features.)
LV2
•
Level 3 (For the Expert driver, boat modeler, or other complex setups.)
LV3
•
To view features available on each menu, see page 11.
DEFAULT:
LV3
INTERACTION: NONE. Changing the complexity of what menu is visible has no effect on the programming whatsoever.
To adjust features set in a higher level and not currently visible, simply change the level back to the higher level and edit.
DESIRED END RESULT: Provide only as much information/access as needed without overwhelming the user with
features not currently desired.
CAUTION: Just because you change to a lesser level does NOT reset hidden functions to their defaults or to inhibited.
Be sure to inhibit any undesired functions and check settings which interact with other functions. (Example: throttle
ATL.)
