EGT-100 Operations & Installation Manual – Ver. 1.9 – June 5, 2003 

 

 

4. SETUP

 

 
Once installed your instrument will require setup to match the specific engine 
parameters as well the user defined preferences. 
 
Instrument setup is only required when a parameter or display configuration is to 
be changed.  With proper planning you should only have to perform this function 
once in the life of the instrument. All information is stored in the instruments 
lifetime memory, which will be retained without battery power for up to 100 years. 
 
To enter 

SETUP

 mode turn off all power to the instrument. Next press and 

HOLD

 

the 

A M S

 switch in the 

S

 position and turn on the power to the instrument. Hold 

the switch in this position until 

SEt-

 is displayed. At this point release the switch. 

 

NOTE: When in the setup mode the display bar will remain blank. The CYL 
digit and the four digit display shows the parameter value and type as per 
the enclosed instructions.
 

 
In order to set the manufacturer specified limits for your engine you will require 
the manufacturer specified high and low limits. Please refer to your engine 
operator’s manual for this information. Most engines will operate between 1300ºF 
and 1600ºF. 
 
 

CyLS

 (Cylinder Count Selection) 

 
For a 6 cylinder instrument, moving the 

A M S

 switch to the 

A

 position and back 

to the 

M

 position will allow selection between 4 and 6 cylinder operation. 

 
For a 4 cylinder instrument, no choice of cylinder count is available.  Simply 
move the 

A M S

 switch once to the 

S

 position and release. The 4 cylinder 

configuration will now be saved and the display will move to the next parameter. 
 
 

Int

 (Intensity Source Selection) 

 
Moving the 

A M S

 switch to the 

A

 position and back to the 

M

 position will allow 

selection between 

I

 (internal intensity control) or 

E

 (external intensity control). 

 
Select the appropriate intensity source and move the 

A M S

 switch once to the 

S

 

position and release. The intensity source will now be saved and the display will 
move to the next parameter.
