with these inputs included oil pressure, fuel pressure, boost (2 and 3 bar
MAP’s), EGT, and in the future we’ll have wideband O2 kits for air/fuel ratio.
x) Analog 2
. Same as Analog 1. Uses the left pin of the three pin connector.
y) Version Graphic
. Gives the ability to display a graphic upon gauge power up
to replace the “Interceptor” logo with one more specific to your vehicle. This
will identify the gauge as being programmed for your vehicle. There is a
limited number of options so this will not apply to every vehicle.
OBD2 powered versions only
: If the gauge is not returned to scan mode after 10
minutes the menu will time out and return to normal scan mode on its own. If the vehicle
is shut off while the menu is displayed, or with both scan field set for analog inputs, the
unit will stay on for the remaining 10 minutes before timing out, returning to scan, and
then turning itself off.
Powering down
The
Interceptor
will automatically shut itself off within seconds of the ignition being
turned off. OBD2 powered dual units may not power down at the exact same time. On
rare occasions both single and dual gauges may also momentarily turn on when the
vehicle is locked or unlocked. This is most common on the SRT-4 and PT Cruiser. If
both display fields are showing analog inputs, the gauge may take up to 10 minutes to
time out and turn off since it is not connected to the vehicle’s data bus in this situation.
Non-Volatile Memory
The
Interceptor
does not require batteries or a continuous power source to maintain its
memory. This means that your data will not be lost if you disconnect the vehicle battery
or disconnect the cable from the OBD2 port.
Precautions
Unplug the
Interceptor
before disconnecting the battery or performing engine work to
prevent damage to the unit.
The
Int
erceptor’s
display is designed to operate continuously at temperatures up to 150
deg. F (70 deg. C). The display may appear “washed” out for a minute or so if exposed
to direct sunlight in hot climates after the car has been parked for an extended period of
time. If the gauge is mounted in such a way that it can be exposed to direct sunlight, such
as on top of the dash, you may want to consider a windshield shade, or unplugging the
display for a minute or two until it and the car cool off a little. If the vehicle will not be
used for more than 5 days it is recommended to unplug the gauge(s) to prevent excessive
battery drain.
Care
If the face of the
Interceptor
needs cleaning, use light pressure with a non-scratching
material such as a pre-moistened micro-fiber material made for plastic sunglass lenses.
The plastic lens will scratch if anything abrasive is used on it.
