Idle-Up
IDLE-UP
DEFINITION:
Adjusts the throttle’s idle/neutral point, usually used to create a
raised idle, making it easier to start the engine. May adjust either toward higher
idle (U) or toward braking (D).
AVAILABLE FOR:
Throttle only.
ADJUSTABILITY:
•
D50-1, 0, U1-50%. D = brake side. U = throttle side.
•
Rate may be assigned to a dial or trim for on-the-track adjustability (see FUNC-
DIAL, pp. 34-35).
INTERACTION:
•
Requires switch assignment in the
FUNC-SW
screen (see pp. 34-35).
•
EPA does
NOT
affect the preset position of idle-up.
•
Idle-up could actually exceed your total EPA. Idle-up obeys only the actual total servo travel and servo reversing, and
no other programmed changes.
DESIRED END RESULT:
Throttle servo moves to a preset position when button is pushed and throttle trigger is at
idle. Has no effect at other throttle positions.
CAUTION:
If you have to adjust your EPAs after setting up this function, be sure to double check that the pre-set
travel is still what is desired.

GOAL:
Set a high idle of 25% of servo travel to get
engine to start easily even when warm
from racing, while using
LV2
programming
(If
LV3
, select
IDLE-UP
from menu 1). (If
using
LV1
, first change the level selection
to
LV2
. See p. 12.)
Where Next:
STEPS:
Set desired switch (
FUNC-SW
).
Open and select menu 1.
Select
IDLE-UP
.
Set desired rate to up (increase) 50%.
Test function on screen.
Close function and menu.
INPUTS:

Press selected switch (ex: PS-1).
Note screen now reads “

” and LED
blinks. Release switch.
NOTE: All of these functions interact with the throttle servo as well and are all inter-
related. Adjusting any one will affect the performance of the others.
