Tach LCD display and LED/Shift lights

Tach LCD display

If you are connected to an RPM input, you have several different ways of displaying the current
RPM.

On any main screen or running ("spinner") screen, you may display the RPM as text (e.g., 11200 or
11.2K). You can of course customize the size and position of this text via GPStudio.

Also, on any main or running screen, you may display the RPM as a graphical "tach bar" on the LCD.
Again, you can control the position and size of this tach bar with GPStudio.

In addition, for the tach bar, you can select the minimum and maximum RPM that will show. For
example, when racing, you may only be interested in the range of 8000 to 14000 RPM. In the
menus under

Tachometer options

, you will see the two menu items that allow these values to be

modified:

When you make a change to the minimum or maximum, you will see a sample display:
