10 Putting the instrument into the initial operation phase
Once all parts are installed securely and all cables are connected properly re-connect the
battery and switch on the ignition or voltage supply. If the electrical connection is correct, the
start display "motogadget" will appear. After this, the display will switch automatically to the
speed indication. If this doesn't happen, turn off the ignition immediately and re-check all
connection terminals and cables on the instrument systematically.
11 Operation and use of the instrument
11.1 General instructions for operation
All functions of the instrument are activated using only one pushbutton. Press the button for
different times provides access to different levels of the display and the setup menu.
The system distinguishes between three times stages. For easy navigation in the setup menu,
the time stage will be shown in the rev counter bar as follows:
Time Stage 1: < 1 sec
One third of the bar is illuminated. Function: primarily
selection of the next option or setting a number read-
out.
Time Stage 2: 1 sec – 3 sec
Two thirds of the bar are illuminated. Function: primarily
selection of the next/subordinate level or selection of
the next digit. Deletion of stored values.
Time Stage 3: > 3 sec
The full bar is illuminated. Function: primarily selection
of the previous/primary level or leaving the menu item.
Please find the exact sequences for the setup menu in the flow chart (appendix 16.2).
11.2 Analogue indication of the engine speed using the LED bar
The rev. counter bar in the first line of the display can be adjusted in scales of 0 - 6.000, 0 –
8.000, 0 – 10,000, 0 – 14,000 and 0-16.000 rpm. This must be pre-defined in the setup
menu.
After entering the specific parameters of the vehicle and the correct rev. counter scale into the
set-up menu, the LED bar should show the correct engine speed on the display. If the engine
speed indication is not satisfying, please select another input filter (InpF) in the setup.
11.3 Speed indication (in km/h or mph)
The current vehicle speed is shown under the menu point "Speed" (standard display). The
measurement range is between 0 and 999 km/h or mph. If the function “auto back" is
activated (Setup/Displ/aback), the display will switch automatically back to the speedometer
display after a predefined time. If the chosen time is set to 00 s the function “auto back” is
deactivated.
11.4 Trip odometer (in km or mi)
Under the menu point "
Trip
" the trip odometer
function shows the
current day mileage. The
distance covered is indicated by a value between 0 and 999.99 km or mi. After reaching the
latter value the counter starts again at 0 mi or km. The highest values are permanently stored.
They can be deleted by keeping the menu button pressed.
