FUNCTION SWITCH
The factory speedometer push button switch is used as the main function switch. The function switch allows
access to all of the mileage and performance information. Pressing and releasing the function switch toggles through
the different displays. Pressing and holding the switch for about 2 seconds will reset the current display. The display
sequence for the speedometer is as follows:
SPEED MENU
000000 odometer mileage
A
000 . 0 trip meter mileage A
B
000 . 0 trip meter mileage B
S 0000 miles since last service (if programmed)
++++++ speedometer will show km/h (or MPH if metric)
R 250.0 or range distance to empty (if turned on)
PERFORMANCE MENU(on speedometer when enabled)
HI 00 high speed recall
60 00 . 0 0-60 mph time ( 0- 00.0 0-100kph)
25 00 . 0 quarter mile time
25 00 quarter mile speed
T 000F cylinder head temp from ECM (run switch must be on)
The 0-60 and ¼ mile timers are zeroed by pressing and holding the switch while that timer is displayed. The timer will not
restart until the speed reaches zero and you start driving again.
GAUGE SETUP AND CALIBRATION
The function switch, discussed above, is used to enter setup mode for all of the gauges. If you are only
installing one or a couple Dakota Digital MCL-3K gauges, then setup may seem a little strange since they are designed
to work as a set. The first step in the setup procedure is to select which gauge you are going to adjust. Each gauge
will either show a number or a label. If the gauge is showing a label then that gauge will be selected to enter setup. All
of the other gauges will exit setup and allow the selected gauge to be changed. To get into setup, press and hold the
function switch while turning the key on. Press and release the switch to advance through the menus below, when on
the desired option press and hold the switch to select setup for that particular gauge/function.

FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS FOR SETUP MENUS
Below is a list of factory gauge settings and what can be adjusted in the setup menus. You can calibrate and
adjust speedometer as often as you wish, however it should only need to be set once. The calibration will be correct for
a stock bike, but the speed can be adjusted to compensate for a change in tire size, pulley size or transmission
gearing.
