FIGURE 8: GPS Antenna and Hot Start Wire +12Volts Hot Start (Red/Black) +12 Volts constant power (25 micro-amp draw) GPS ANTENNA Gauge 1. Connect GPS receiver antenna into back of speedometer. 2. For best performance, mount GPS antenna with as much view of sky as possible (preferably on the roof of the vehicle). The GPS antenna is waterproof and magnetic. If the car’s roof is not accessible then mount the antenna on top of the vehicle’s dash with as much exposure as possible to the sky through the window. NOTE: Antenna is able to receive signal through some thin materials i.e. wood, glass, fiberglass, and plastic. All types of metal will block the signal. 3. Hot start feature is optional. Connecting the hot start wire to constant +12volts allows GPS to quickly acquire satellites in less than 2 seconds. This feature saves your current satellite position within the speedometer enabling it to quickly restore your position on power up when Speedometer has been powered off. NOTE: Please note that if the speedometer has been powered off longer than 4 hours, it could take up to 1 minute to acquire signal due to the satellites moving significantly from your location. This is normal. Power Draw NOTE: The hot start current draw is extremely low (25 micro-amp) and will have virtually zero impact on a vehicle’s battery charge. Hot start wire should be connected directly to battery +12voltage and should remain powered 100% of the time.

Note: If you plan to operate the tachometer using OBDII CAN-BUS (J1979), then you do not need to connect the Tachometer signal wire. FIGURE 9: Your vehicle ignition system will fall under one of these 4 ignition types. The type of ignition system will determine where the yellow tachometer signal wire (wire #17) is connected and what the number of pulses per revolution the tachometer should be set to. Type #1 (single coil) - Up until the 1990’s tachometers picked up the signal from the (-) side on a single ignition coil, reading every pulse sent to all the cylinders. For example, an 8 cylinder (4 stroke) engine fires 4 spark plugs per revolution or all 8 spark in 2 revolutions. Connecting the yellow wire to the negative side of the single coil on an 8 cylinder results in picking up 4 sparks in 1 revolution (see diag. 1). This type of ignition was used pre-dominantly until the 1990’s and distributes sparks to each spark plug. In some vehicles during the 90’s the coil and distributer merged into one unit, but it is the same ignition system - one coil that distributes sparks to all cylinders. When connecting the yellow wire to this style of ignition you will be picking up all cylinder sparks (see diag. 5). Type #2 (coil pack) - (diag. 2) is used in the 96 Mustang v8 with twin coil packs. Coil pack #1 (C1) controls the firing of 4 spark plugs and coil pack #2 (C2) controls the remaining 4 spark plugs. 2 or more separate coils are within each coil pack assembly. In this example each of the 2 coils within each coil pack sends sparks to 2 cylinders at the same time. When one cylinder is firing in the compression stroke, it's paired cylinder is "waste" firing in the exhaust stroke. Each separate coil within the pack is controlled by it’s own trigger wire. In other words, if you hooked up the yellow wire to one coil trigger wire within one coil pack, it will see only a fraction of the total engine sparks (see diag. 5). Type #3 (coil on plug) – An individual coil is placed directly on top of each spark plug eliminating the spark plug wires. The yellow wire , when hooked up to any coil, will pick up only 1 pulse per 2 revolutions or 1/2 pulse per 1 revolution (see dia 3). For this type of ignition the yellow wire from the tachometer will connect to the trigger wire on one of the coils. Typically there will be 3 or 4 colored wires coming off of them, but the fourth wire will be blue on one coil and green on the next coil. Type #4 (tach output from ECU) Some vehicles will have a tachometer output wire coming from the ECU. The yellow wire from our tachometer can receive signal Diag 5: Tachometer yellow wire connection Type #1 ignitions Type #2- Coil Packs Type #3- Coil on Plug Aftermarket ignitions / tach output - negative Yellow wire Yellow wire connects to: negative side of coil. 12 cyl = 6 Pulses / rev 10 cyl = 5 Pulses / rev 8 cyl = 4 Pulses / rev 6 cyl = 3 Pulses / rev 4 cyl = 2 Pulses / rev (see Tachometer Calibration) Yellow wire connects to: 1 Pulses / rev.

(GPS features) - 6 - Elevation Speed Direction 2 GPS SPEEDOMETER: When the gauge is powered on, it will begin to search for satellites to acquire a GPS signal. After a GPS signal is aquired the screen will display “GPS ACTIVE”. When the the GPS signal is active the following displays and menus will be available: To access and use the on screen menu: Press the button (located on the front of the gauge) to select different options. Press and hold the button to gain access to an option or menu selection. Elevation feature is acquired from GPS satellites and shows the current elevation from sea level in feet or meters depending on model. Speed feature shows mph or kmh in display Shows the current direction Note: Default direction is North(N). Correct direction is displayed only when moving. Clock Clock feature.
