Installation notes for EVO 4/G-Dash or EVO 4/MXL-Dash and SmartyCam HD
1) The components are pre-configured. Here are more details, tips and hints.
The Data Hub plugs into the Exp port on the EVO 4 and should be located as close to the G-
Dash or MXL-Dash display as possible. The TP (throttle position sensor) should be connected
to an extension cable and the metal end connected to the channel listed on the printout included
with the order. The BP (brake pressure sensor) should be connected to an extension cable and
the metal end connected to the channel listed on the printout included with the order. The cable
from the SmartyCam EXT port should connect to any open port on the Data Hub. The G-Dash
or MXL-Dash coiled cord should connect to any open port on the Data Hub. There is an optional
extension cable for the G-Dash from the Data Hub. The download cable (three pin metal screw
connector with the EVO 4) should be connected to the Usb port on the EVO 4 and left in the car
for convenient download.
There are two connector cables with unterminated (bare wire) ends in the EVO 4 box. One is
labeled CAN- and CAN+, RS-232 and is not used for older cars. The other, labeled 4-50V,
150-400V and has a lead labeled “output” is used to connect to the tach lead. Use the 4-50V
blue lead to connect to the back of the instrument cluster to the tach lead or an MSD tach output
(preferred) OR use the 150-450V for connection to the low side of the coil as a last resort.
2) The SmartyCam HD should be mounted using the RAM mount clamping to the diagonal of
the roll bar in the plane of the main hoop at driver’s eye level. It should be mounted right of
centerline facing forward and aimed slightly down (10-15 degrees from level) towards the
centerline of the car.
