Display update setup ( UPDATE)
The display update rate can be adjusted so the reading on the tachometer doesn’t
change so quickly. This is a personal preference and is used to “slow” the reading by
averaging. The value can be changed from
slow, mid, or fast.
• When “UPDATE” is displayed, press and hold SW1 until you get “ - ”.
• Release SW1 and the current update rate will be displayed.
• Press and release SW1 to increase the value from “SLOw” “ MID” “ FAST”.
• When the desired setting is displayed, press and hold SW1 until “ - ” “DONE” is displayed.
• Release the switch to go onto the next sub-menu item.
RPM warning setup ( WARN)
This is used for the turn on point for the WARN output on the control box. When the
RPM reading is above this setting, the output will activate, providing a ground signal. It can be
used to turn on a shift light or other RPM based devices. The value is adjustable from 2200
RPM – 14800 RPM in 100 RPM increments.
• When
“WARN” is displayed press and hold SW1 until you get “ - ”.
• Release SW1 and the current warning point will be displayed.
• Press and release SW1 to increase the value from “W 2200” – “W14800”.
• When the desired setting is displayed press and hold SW1 until “ - ” “DONE” is displayed.
• Release the switch to go onto the next sub-menu item.
Tach signal setup ( SIGNAL)
This menu will allow you to select from two different tach-input types. A low voltage, “5
LO”, tach signal or a high voltage tach signal, “12 HI”. A low voltage signal is usually one
picked up from the ECM. Low voltage may also be considered a 0-5V square wave. If you are
getting the tach signal from the ignition coil or points, set this for the high voltage signal“12 HI”.
To pick up a tach signal from a traditional coil wire the tach input to the negative side of the coil.
• When
“signal” is displayed press and hold SW1 until you get “ - ”.
• Release SW1 and the current value will be displayed.
• Press and release SW1 to toggle from “12 HI” to “5 LO”.
• When the desired setting is displayed, press and hold SW1 until “ - ” “DONE” is displayed.
• Release the switch to go onto the next sub-menu item.

• Release the switch to go onto the next menu.
VOLT SETUP
The Volt setup allows you set a warning point that will cause the Volt display to flash
whenever the voltage drops below the warning value. The low voltage point can be set from 10
-13.1 volts.
• Press and hold SW1 while turning the key on.
• Release the switch and then press and release SW1 to get to the “volt” setup menu.
• When “volt” is displayed press and hold SW1 until you get “ - ”, release SW1 and “WARN”
will be displayed.
• When “WARN” is displayed press and hold SW1 until you get “ - ”.
• Release SW1 and the current warning point will be displayed.
• Press and release SW1 to increase the value from “LO 10.0” – “LO 13.1”.
• When the desired setting is displayed, press and hold SW1 until “ - ” “DONE” is displayed.
• Release the switch to go onto the next sub-menu item.
