(1) 

Select a data file

  

Press the upper or lower part of the center switch and turn the rotary switch                  
counterclockwise or clockwise to select a data file. The selected item is displayed as a 
reversing display. When the rotary switch is turned clockwise, the cursor is moved      
upward. When this switch is turned counterclockwise, the cursor is moved downward.

 

 

(2) 

Change over the data file between ON and OFF

  

Select each item and press the right part of the center switch. With this, it can be        
selected whether the saved data is validated or not (ON/OFF). When the upper part   
of the center switch is pressed, the saved data is validated (ON). 
When the lower part of this switch is pressed, the saved data is invalidated (OFF).

 

(3) End the setting

 

 

Select [Pr] in the popup menu after pressing the center pushbutton or press the left    
part of the center switch at item selection (File 1, File 2), and the setting menu will       
reappear.

  

Saving and loading setting data

 

 

The 4 items (air correction factor Hi/Lo setting, throttle  
opening setting, air correction engine RPM setting, and 
deceleration air upper limit setting) can be saved and 
loaded in the data file. 
If any setting is changed in these 4 items, the changed  
setting is automatically saved in the file (file in the ON 
status). 

 

                                               <

Auto Save function

 >

 

In the initial status (at delivery from the factory), File 1 is set 
to ON and File 2 is set to OFF. 
When File 2 is turned on, File 1 is turned off. At this time, 
the data saved in File 2 is loaded. When File 2 is tuned on 
for the first time, the initial (factory-set) data is loaded.  
If there is a history to indicate that the setting was  
previously changed by turning on File 2, the changed data 
is loaded at that time. 
Because saving is performed by overwriting, the data to be 
loaded is the immediately saved data. 
When File 1 is turned on, the same can be said. 

 

Never change over a file during driving

 

There is a possibility that there may be a large difference in 

specifications in some setting data causing severe engine 
damage.
