All the inputs can be checked using the “Real time inputs view” option in the “Analog and digital
inputs” menu. The first screen will show the real time value of the 8 analog inputs, speed 1, speed
2 and the RPM. Keep the DN button pressed to open the subsequent screen where the values of
the voltage battery, of the water, of the oil and of the fuel are shown. Battery and water values are
reported before and after elaboration (from 0 to 1023 in the first case). The converted values
depend on the selected type of bike.
If the generic harness is used please remember that each signal can require a pull-up resistor
(connected to 12V) or a pull-down resistor (connected to ground) to be correctly read. Neutral and
oil signals often require a pull-up resistor (a value equal to 2kOhm is usually enough).
Do not tightly bind Chrome to those parts of the bike that are affected by vibrations, like the bike
frame. Please use anti-vibrating mounts for the Chrome installation. Chrome includes some anti-
vibrating pawl but also the original anchor systems should be used. For some type of bikes,
dedicated anti-vibrating brackets are available to place Chrome in the original brackets.
An improper installation will cause a continuous exposure to vibration that can damage
Chrome in a very short time, leading to sporadic malfunctions.
A rubber cover, to protect the connector, is included in the Chrome box. The cables have to be
inserted in the cover that has to be fixed to the Chrome backside flange (use the included clamp).
An adhesive tape can be used to fix all the cables and the rubber cover, this way the Chrome is
protected from water and moisture.
GPS installation
In order to receive the best GPS signal, the GPS receiver must be positioned horizontally so that
most of the sky is within the receiver field of view. Do not place any metal object near the receiver,
since it could shield the satellite signals. Please attach the GPS receiver to the bike with a double-
sided adhesive Velcro, thus avoiding a tight bound between the receiver and the bike.
ATTENTION: The high operating frequency of the Chrome dashboard can significantly reduce the
sensitivity of the GPS receiver, do not place the GPS receiver on or near the equipment. If
possible, avoid even the steering plate. The ideal position is on the tail with the appropriate
extension.
The receiver can also be placed, always horizontal, inside the hulls verified that they are not
carbon fiber, a material that would shield the signal.
