BD X-Monitor (Pyro & Boost Only)
10
Operation
CAUTION
: Do not run the engine at higher than 900°F (1050°F if the pyrometer is
mounted pre-turbo) temperatures (“PYRO”) as indicated on the display for extended
periods or serious engine damage may result. The suggested limits for boost
pressure (“TURBO”) on stock trucks are 32psi on Dodge/Fords and 25psi on
Duramax trucks. These limits will vary depending on vehicle condition, performance
enhancements and driving techniques.
Once the display has gone through the startup cycle, you will see the readings for
“PYRO” and “TURBO”. The “PYRO” temperature reading is in Fahrenheit (°F) and
the “TURBO” pressure reading is in pounds-per-square-inch (PSI). All readings are
approximate and may vary due to characteristics of the probe and certain conditions
can cause interference or swaying of readings.
This X Monitor comes with alarm, peak memory, memory clearing and brightness
functions that can be accessed and set by the two buttons on the side of the display.
To change the settings and set alarm values there are 2 buttons on the side of the
display: the bottom (
MENU
) button cycles through the different modes and the upper
(
MODIFY
) button controls the setting of the values.
If you press the bottom button once, you will be in the “PYRO” function screen.
Here you will see three readings being displayed:
PYRO MAX ALARM
xxxxF xxxx xxxx
NOTE
: The “xxxx” in the above example denotes current reading or setting.
The first set of numbers with the heading “
PYRO
” is the current thermocouple
temperature as you would see on the initial main screen. The “MAX” number is the
historical peak temperature achieved since the last time memory was cleared.
