This Bus Interface Module has a constant battery power input and an accessory input. The battery power keeps the
clock running and the accessory input powers the bus interface port. There are two interface (I/O) ports on the
module. Either one can be connected to the gauge system or to another module, allowing several units to be daisy
chained together. Do not connect the I/O port to anything other than a Dakota Digital gauge or BIM. Do not mount the
module in the engine compartment; it should be mounted in interior of the vehicle.
Each BIM needs a unique ID number assigned to it. It can be assigned an ID from 1
– 16, or turned off. The factory
default ID number is 7. The clock can run in 12 hour or 24 hour format. The factory default time format is 12 hour.
