PART NUMBER
FG-EBOOST-
40/60
This cycle is advantageous for certain applications where a momentary spike in boost is desired. To change the gate pressure value, enter the
boost parameter menu, then scroll to GP1, GP2 or GP3. Press and hold the Mode button for two seconds, press the up or down arrows to change
the gate pressure value. Press the Mode button momentarily and the gate pressure will be stored. Press the Mode button again to return to
Live Mode.
5b. Auxiliary Output
The e-Boost has an auxiliary output function designed to control an auxiliary device once a certain boost pressure is achieved, i.e. water spray,
water injection or warning light. This circuit must be used to control a relay, with a maximum load rating of 1amp. The auxiliary output is
factory set to 1 bar (14.7 psi or 100 kpa).
To change the auxiliary output value enter the user parameter menu, then scroll to the Au parameter.
Press and hold the Mode button for two seconds, press the up or down arrows to set the desired auxiliary
pressure. Note, the number that appears in this parameter will be in bar, psi or kpa, depending on what has
been set in the readout parameter, see section 4b for more detail. Press the Mode button momentarily
and the auxiliary pressure will be stored. Press the Mode button again to return to Live Mode.
5c. Audible Alarm
The e-Boost has an audible alarm function that sounds the internal buzzer once a certain boost pressure is
achieved. This alarm can be used to confirm that full boost has been reached or as an over boost warning
and can be programmed for any boost pressure. The audible alarm has been factory set to 1 bar (14.7 psi
or 100 kpa).
To change the audible alarm enter the user parameter menu, then scroll to the AL parameter. Press and
hold the Mode button for two seconds, press the up or down arrow to scroll to the desired pressure.
Note, the number that appears in this parameter will be in bar, psi or kpa, depending on what has been set
in the readout parameter, see section 4b for more detail. Press the Mode button momentarily and the
alarm pressure will be stored. Press the Mode button again to return to Live Mode.
5d. Using External Set Point Switching
The e-Boost has three different boost set points. These can be triggered internally, via the up / down arrows, or externally by grounding or
earthing the green and or orange wires to the chassis. The external set points are selected by earthing the appropriate wire corresponding with
the set point you wish to select, see the table below for detail. The e-Boost is factory set for internal set point switching.
To configure the e-boost for external set point trigger enter the user parameter menu, then scroll to the ISP parameter. Press and hold the
Mode button for two seconds, press the up or down arrows to change between ISP and ESP. Press the Mode button momentarily and the
selection will be stored. Press the Mode button again to return to Live Mode.

For further details see section 2j. Wiring.
5e. Peak Hold Function
The e-Boost has a peak hold function PH, that records peak boost pressure. Each time a higher pressure is
produced the previous figure is discarded. To access the peak hold you must be in live mode. Press the
Mode button twice to view PH parameter. Note, the number that appears in this parameter will be in bar,
psi or kpa, depending on what has been set in the readout parameter, see section 4b for more detail. Press
the Mode button momentarily to clear the peak hold memory and return to Live Mode.
