may switch vehicles at any time. It is important to select the proper vehicle as the proper
data is needed for coolant and boost monitoring.
Module Selection
This provides the list of the supported power modules and chips that you can control.
Some modules and chips are not supported on the standard version of the X2 and may
require additional hardware.
Sensor Selection
This section allows you to turn parameters on or off. If you choose to view a parameter
that is turned off, the X2 will display OFF in the corresponding window that it is to be
viewed in. If you are connected to this parameter and choose to monitor it you must turn
it to ON.
Warm-Up Mode
The Warm-Up Mode is only for vehicles using a module or chip. This allows you to
choose what temperature your module or chip starts adding power. The X2 will turn the
power adder to the last used power level. The default is at zero. This works for any
module or chip that the X2 is controlling. If your module already has cold engine
protection you can turn this off, or you may want to raise the temperature at which it
starts adding power. The X2 will supersede the module’s set warm-up temperature as
long as the turn-on point is higher than the module’s.
EGT Calibration
This function allows you to slightly alter the EGT reading of your gauge. If you already
have an analog gauge that you trust, you want to use an existing thermocouple, or you
have a thermocouple test tool, you may dial the X2 in to read exactly like your existing
gauge. The amount of scaling is not large and is used for fine tuning if you desire. The X2
comes set to match perfectly with the supplied thermocouple and should only be altered if
you have the proper equipment.
Version Info
This is where you may retrieve your software version number as well as the
Commander’s serial number. This is very helpful information if technical assistance is
ever needed. The version number will also be needed in order to download updates to
the X2.
Data Logging
This is where your records are stored. The X2 keeps a log of all minimum and maximum
values it records from the time you start your truck. Each time you turn your vehicle off,
the X2 resets the log and starts a new one. If you desire to reset your parameters while
the vehicle is running you may do so by selecting RESET ALL.
