Advanced Setup: 

 
The system is designed to bring each of the individual bags to their set points when the key is 
turned on or when a new mode is selected.  When the key is turned on there is a 2 second 
delay before it begins making adjustments to allow everything to power up first.  Once the 
system is done adjusting the bag pressures and the system has stabilized it will begin taking a 
longer averaged reading from the bags to ignore fluctuations due to hitting bumps, turning 
corners, and sudden braking or acceleration.   
The settings used in this long average mode are user adjustable, but have been preset to typical 
starting values.  One setting is the % variation allowed once the system has been stabilized for 
a period of time.  This prevents nuisance adjustments that are not necessary.  The default value 
is 10% and it is adjustable from 5% - 19%.  The other setting is the time delay before 
adjustments are made when the variation appears to be caused by turning sharply or suddenly 
braking.  The default value is 30 seconds and it is adjustable from 16 – 46 seconds. 
To enter the setup mode to make adjustments to these values, press and hold the left, center 
switch while you are turning the key on.  The display will show the Dakota Digital startup 
message.  Release the switch.  The settings will be displayed as shown below.

Press the left, center switch to save the new settings and go on to the next setup menu. 
 
In order to compensate for different air system speeds, the output can be varied with 8 different 
settings.  Speed setting 1 is the default setting and will work with most systems.  The faster your 
bag system, the higher the setting number that should be used. 
Press the bottom, right switch to change the speed setting. 
Press the left, center switch to save the new settings and return to normal operation.
