WAIT
The WAIT terminal can be used as a wait to start or glow plug indicator. The WAIT input
is activated by a 12 volt signal from the glow plugs. Whenever the WAIT input is powered the
system will display “WAIT” on the message display. This message can be cleared by pressing
and holding switch 2.
4x4
The 4x4 terminal can be used on four wheel drive vehicles. The 4x4 input is activated by a
ground signal from a switch on the transfer case. Connect a wire from this terminal to the switch
on the transfer case. Whenever the 4x4 input is grounded the system will display “4 WD” on the
message display. When signal turns off, the system will display “2 WD” on the message
display.
HI BEAM
The HI BEAM terminal is activated by a 12 volt signal from the headlight high beam wire.
When the terminal has 12 volts, an indicator will light up to the lower right of the speedometer
display. An existing wire from the vehicle for the high beam indicator can be used or a new wire
can be connected from the high beam side of the hi beam/low beam switch.
LEFT
The LEFT terminal is activated by a 12 volt signal from the turn signal switch. When this
terminal has 12 volts, an arrow will light up to the left of the speedometer display. An existing
wire from the vehicle for the left turn indicator can be used or a new wire can be connected from
the turn signal switch.
RIGHT
The RIGHT terminal is activated by a 12 volt signal from the turn signal switch. When
this terminal has 12 volts, an arrow will light up to the right of the speedometer display. An
existing wire from the vehicle for the right turn indicator can be used or a new wire can be
connected from the turn signal switch.
SHIFT
The SHIFT terminal is an output for a relay or small light. The output is ground-activated
when the preset rpm limit is exceeded. This output can turn on a 4 Watt or smaller 12 volt bulb
or can activate a relay to turn on a larger bulb. To wire a warning light to this output, connect
one wire from the bulb to 12 volt accessory power and connect the other wire to the SHIFT
terminal.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR INPUT
The GEAR terminal is used for the gear shift indicator. The indicator is built into every
system but it will not light up unless a Dakota Digital GSS-1000/2000/5000 gear shift sending
unit is connected to tell it what gear the transmission is in. The gear shift sending unit is not
included with the system and must be purchased separately. The GEAR terminal will connect to
the FIRST terminal on a GSS-1000 or to the 1-wire terminal on a GSS-2000 or GSS-5000.
Follow the instructions in the GSS manual for use with a single wire display system. When the
gear shift sending unit is connected, the gear name will be shown on the message display.
