GOAL:
Set auto-start to avoid wheel spin, while
using
LV2. (If using LV3, select AT-START
from menu 1.) (If using
LV1, first change
the level selection, see p. 12.)
Example: Trigger point of 95% so that any
acceleration other than wide open off the line
will not trigger the auto-start feature.
Preset of 54% (determined on the track
that this is the maximum acceleration you
can have off the line without spinning.)
Where Next:
STEPS:
Open and Select Menu 1.
Select
AT-START.
Select Auto-start mode.
Set pre-set position for throttle to go to
when auto-start is in use.
Set trigger point to activate auto-start.
Activate auto-start to be used on next full
acceleration.
Test function on screen.
Set desired end point (example 98%).
Close function and menu.
INPUTS:
to
AT&SW.
to
F54.
to
95.
to
READY.
Pull trigger slowly until past 95%.
* displays at
TGP.
ATS indicates ACT, MODE indicates ON.
Release trigger.
ATS returns to OFF.
Press to
re-activate.
Set up engine cut: Set mode to
SW, set preset. You must also set cut switch in FUNC-SW
(pp. 34-35.)
Assign a switch to
AT-START using FUNC-SW (p. 28), then test auto-start using switch
instead of trigger.
Adjust the throttle’s total travel (
EPA): See p. 18.
Adjust the brake’s available travel/trim (
TH-ATL)(LV3): See p. 37.
Adjust the throttle servo’s overall speed (
TH-SPEED): See p. 23.
Adjust throttle exponential (
TH-EXP): See p. 20.
Set up ABS braking (
ABS): See p. 24.
Set up a high idle for easier engines starts (
IDLE-UP): See p. 27.
Adjust brake mixing for separate front/rear brakes (
BRAKE-MIX) (LV3): See p. 42.
Expert Tip: If you set up a switch in
FUNC-SW (see pp. 34-35) assigned to auto-start,
you can use that switch to turn on/off the Auto-start feature without having to go to the
95% throttle position.
