Auxiliary Sensors
The Auxiliary sensors are used for supporting custom sensors and triggering actions based on the sensor values.
You must use the RapidCore Configuration Software to program a custom sender table to the controller for the auxiliary
sensor(s) that will be used. Otherwise "Undefined Sensor" will appear menu in the front panel menu system. Once a sender table
is programmed to the controller all the other settings can be adjusted from the front panel of the controller.

Name Range Description
Signal Source Disable
Port A
Port B
Port C
Port D The source where to get the signal for the aux. sensor.
Any port can be used even if it is used by another sensor or aux.
sensor. If the port is in use by other sensor this is known as
overloading the port.
Custom Sender (Configuration
Software only)
---
The sender resistance / value curve must be programmed from the
RapidCore Configuration Software even if the port is being
overloaded. This tells the controller how to interpret the signal from
the port. No front panel configuration is allowed until the sender
curve is programmed to the controller.
Display Enable
Disable Determines if the sensor's value is displayed on the screen when the
engine is running.
Active Mode Disable

OFF Mode (Not in Auto)

After Cranking
Cooldown Determines under which operating conditions the Auxiliary Sensor is
monitored. Multiple selections are allowed. Does not apply to "Start
on Low" or "Start on High"; for those selections the active mode is
always AUTO.
Refer to the examples in the following pages for information on
specific mode functions.
Disable - Input cannot be triggered.
Global - Input can be triggered at any time.
OFF Mode - Input can be triggered while in the OFF mode.
Auto Mode - Input can be triggered while in the AUTO mode.
Running - Input can be triggered after a start command is received
until shut down (cooldown not included).
Cranking - Input can be triggered during cranking.
After Cranking - Input can be triggered after engine has started until
shut down.
Cooldown - Input can be triggered while cooldown timer is active.
Func. Select Fault Monitor
Output on Low
Output on High
Start on Low
Start on High Determines how the controller responds to the readings of the
auxiliary sensor.
"x on Low" will turn on the output or start the controller if the sensor
input falls below the Start Level.
"x on High" will turn on the output or start the controller if the sensor
input rises above the Start Level.
Trim Offset -50.0 ~ 50.0 units. The
units depends on the unit
type of the programmed
sender table --
0 F, psi, %,
V, A.
Calibrate a sensor by using the offset to correct errors.
Mode Settings > Bypass Time 0 ~ 90, 1 second
increments
The amount of time to ignore the sensor input after the desired active
mode is first entered. Once triggered the bypass time does not
apply again until the device resets (for example transitioning from
RUN to the OFF or AUTO state) or on power-up.
Mode Settings > Run Time Disable
1 ~ 6000
1 , 1 minute
increments
(Only applies if Func. Select is not set to Fault Monitor) The amount
of time to turn on the auxiliary switched output or run the controller
before turning off the output or shutting down the controller.
