INTRODUCTION
• The Playback Tach has the capability of recording up to 80 seconds of data.
This data is stored in memory even after power is shut off, and can be played back any number of times.
• Any Auto Meter Shift-Lite™, or Quick-Lite™ Shift-Lite can be used with this tach. Up to four different shift points can be used to activate the Shift-Lite.
• When a Shift-Lite is used, Auto Meter’s unique Launch Lite™ feature gives a visual indication that the staging/launch
RPM is either AT, ABOVE or BELOW a user changeable set point.
• The number of ignition Pulses Per Revolution (PPR) of the engine can be set from .5 PPR to 6 PPR.
