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.)
