G-Window: Tachometer
The tachometer (Figure 11) indicates the vehicle redline and
shiftlight shiftpoint that you entered during the Quick Setup
Procedure.
The tach needle displays the vehicle RPMs in real-time.
Note: When the G-tech is powered by the 12V DC wall
adapter, there is no RPM signal, and the tachometer reading is
meaningless.

G-Window: Acceleration Bars
This section explains how to read the acceleration indicators
on the G-Window.
Note: For the acceleration bars to be meaningful, you must
have already (1) calibrated your accelerometers (page 28) and
(2) done at least one acceleration run (page 52).
Note: If you have moved or re-oriented the G-tech mounting
clip since your last forward acceleration run, the acceleration
bars will not be accurate! See page 49 for more information.
The acceleration bars show instantaneous forward and lateral
vehicle acceleration.
When you punch the accelerator, you will see a surge in the
forward acceleration indicator.
When you turn your vehicle, you will see a surge in the lateral
acceleration indicator.
Dominant acceleration is indicated by the dark (solid) bar; the
shaded (grey) bar indicates lesser acceleration.
