Display Setup 

VFD and VHX systems will add extra readings to the message displays under the tach. 
HDX and RTX need a group screen configured to show additional information, such as Boost or Intake temp 
GRAFIX systems will show extra readings if they are selected in the LAYOUTS>>GAUGES menu 

 

Setting up the display system will configure the instrument control box to read each input from either the terminals or 
through the BIM cable from the Bus Interface Module. 
The BIM menu of the display will not find the BIM-01-2-FTCH, but will find specific channels for Boost and Air/Fuel Ratio. 
 
The following settings are for the basic information to be displayed with data from the BIM module. 
Extra data that might be sent such as Intake Air Temp, Air/Fuel Ratio or Boost, can be brought up in the message centers 
of the VFD3 and VHX system by toggling SW2 in normal operation of the vehicle. Similar data that might be present will 
not automatically be shown in the HDX and RTX systems. That extra information must be placed in a group screen of 
your choice, in the HDX and RTX setup. GRAFIX systems may need gauge regions in the current layout adjusted   
 

Display data usage 

The following readings can each be used in place of dedicated sending units to the instrument system control box. These 
are individually selectable in the display system instrument setup menus. 

 
VFD3 / VFD3X Setup: 

 

Entering the VFD3 setup is done by holding SW1 (I) and tur

ning the ignition to “on”, or “acc”. 

Once in setup, one can move between 

speed

tach

volt

water

, etc

…. by tapping SW1 (I) 

If you are setting multiple items, once done with one section you will automatically move onto the next item. 

 
Obtaining speed from the BIM-01-2-FTCH 

(N/A on TBI system)

 

 

Hold the SW1 switch from the instrument system control box while turning the key on. 

o

 

The speed display will show 



 and the message display will show 

SETUP

 

Release SW1. The displays should show 



and 

SPEED

, respectively. 

 

Press and hold SW1 for at least 3 seconds, until 



 

changes to “-”. The message display will show 

SENDER

 

Press and hold SW1 for at least 3 seconds, until 



 

changes to “-”. The speed display will show the current 

setting. 

 

Tap SW1 until 



 and 

BUS

 are displayed. 

 

Press and hold SW1 until 



 and 

DONE

 are displayed. 

o

 

NOTE: The 

AUTO

, auto calibration, is removed. 

o

 

Speed can only be fine-tuned with the 

ADJUST

 mode at a standstill. 

o

 

ADJUST

 now only alters the percentage of speed by +/- 25%. 

 

Drive a known speed and calculate how far off the speed is in percentage. 

 

GPS speed / displayed speed x 100 

 

Sample - [60/50=1.2]  [1.2x100 = 120] 

120%

 

 

Enter setup and go to 

ADJUST

, tap SW1 to increment from 100% up to 125%. 

 

After 125% the values will fall back to 75% and increment up again. 

 

When the desired percentage is reached, hold SW1 until 



 

changes to “-”. 

 

Tap SW1 until 



 and 

DONE

 are displayed. 

 

Press and hold SW1 until “-” and 

DONE

 are displayed.
