CLEAR/OFF key – Turns unit OFF when pressed from MAIN m enu and allows runs to be deleted from the data base and allows the user to reenter a value if the [...]

6 SAMPLE AIR By pressing "1" from the MAIN menu the unit displays all the sam pled air parameters and the PREDICTION in the following form at: DATE TIME TEMP HUMIDITY PRESSURE OXYGEN (if equipped) / DEW POINT VAPOR PRESSURE ALTITUDE/CF PREDICTION (ET or TS) Pressing the “ENTER” key while viewing current data will HOLD the data to be u[...]

7 SET UP By pressing "2" from the MAIN menu the unit enters SET UP. Set up allows for configuring any one of the 10 data bases. Each data Base hold 40 runs. The first menu appears... Select Data Base Yes = 1 No = 2 After selecting a data base you will be asked if you want to clear all the runs out of it: CLEAR RUNS? Yes = CLEAR No = ANY K[...]

8 By pressing "2" sets the unit to the TS MODE (Throttle Stop Mode). This means all runs added to the data base will be stored in the TS section and the PREDICTION will be a TS or timer setting computed from the stored runs and the present ALTITUDE. After pressing "2" another menu is displayed as follows: TS MODE SELECTED index [...]

9 Set Base Run: Your base run data should be taken from a “good run” or your last “good run”. You can update this data as you wish. Enter Base Run DA= ET= Timer= (if in TS mode) Temperature= (if fuel type=Alcohol) Humidity= (if fuel type=Alcohol) Set Pred Values: Set Pred Values allows you to sele ct your gas type and your DA to ET and TS t[...]

10 Wind Prediction: If you have chosen Multiple Run Prediction you will be prompted to select to use wind correction into you ET or TS predictions: Predict w/Wind? PRESS 1=Y 2=N If you enable wind correction you will be prompted to select a vehicle type: Select Car Type Dragster=1 Door =2 Roadster=3 Next you can adjust the wind effect. Adjust Effec[...]

11 RUN ENTRY By pressing "3" from the MAIN menu the unit displays the following: VIEW/DELETE RUNS = 1 ADD RUNS = 2 TSR = 3 or RATIO/SLET = 3 “TSR” (throttle stop ratio) is only displayed if the unit in TS MODE and more then two runs has already been stored. Pressing "3" displays the throttle stop ratio. “ RATIO/SLET ” is[...]

12 Enter Run Info-> DA=1000 (Example) 1000’ ET= ET= TS= The DA or OA will already be loaded. You should enter a 1000’ ET, a final ET, and TS. The 1000’ ET is optional and is used for run completing. You do not have to enter every run with a 1000’ time in order to use run completing. The TS will only be entered if the unit is in TS MODE. [...]

13 RUN COMPLETION In order use the run completion program effectively at least one previous run must be entered into a data base with a 1000’ ET. To use run completion all you need to do is enter the 1000’ et of the run you want to complete and then when it asks you to enter your final ET= simply press the ENTER key without any value. You will [...]

14 DOWNLOAD By pressing “5” you will begin downloading into a personal computer if you have purchased that option. To install software: Place DISK 1 in drive d: and run SETUP. Follow the instructions on the screen to finish installation. 1) COMPORT button - To download Perform BJSF connect supplied cable to unit and to serial port on back of c[...]

15 Sea Level ET OA: ET car will run at 0’ oxygen altitude. (Optional) Alt Ratio DA: Time in seconds ET will change with a 100’ change in density altitude. Alt Ratio OA: Time in seconds ET will change with a 100’ change in oxygen altitude. (Optional) TS Ratio DA: Tim e in seconds Throttle Stop will need to change in order to change ET of car 0[...]

16 SET CLOCK By pressing "6" from the MAIN menu the unit will prom pt you to enter the DATE and TIME. BAD RUNS By pressing “7’ from the MAIN menu the unit will display any runs that do not “fit” with the rest of the data. These runs will not be removed; you will have to clear them out of the data base yourself. Example: Run #1: Ru[...]
