Engine Temperature & Oil Pressure Calibration
To accurately calibrate the controller’s temperature sensor, an external temporary engine mounted
temperature gauge is required. The external temperature gauge should be connected as close as possible
to the temperature sender.
To accurately calibrate the controller’s pressure sensor, an external temporary engine mounted pressure
gauge is required. The external pressure gauge should be connected as close as possible to the pressure
sender.

Displays the type of calibration function.
Displays the calibration correction factor number (0-255) used to obtain the correct Temperature or Pressure reading.
Displays the actual temperature or pressure measurement shown on the display menus.
This reading may be calibrated higher or lower by changing the correction factor number.
Engine Temperature
The engine temperature analog circuit must be calibrated with the engine temperature sender mounted on the engine.
Connect a temporary engine mounted temperature gauge of suitable accuracy and start the engine. After the engine
reaches normal operating temperature, enter the programming mode and scroll to the Engine Temperature Offset"
calibration point. Use the INCREMENT or DECREMENT push-buttons to adjust the correction factor number while
observing the displayed temperature. Adjust the correction factor number to obtain the identical temperature reading as
measured with the external temperature gauge. With the correct temperature displayed, press the Enter" push-button to
accept the correction factor number. Record the correction factor on the programming sheet for future reference.
Oil Pressure
Connect a temporary engine mounted pressure gauge of suitable accuracy and start the engine. After the engine
reaches normal operating pressure and temperature, enter the programming mode and scroll to the Engine Pressure
Offset" calibration point. Use the INCREMENT or DECREMENT push-buttons to adjust the correction factor number
while observing the displayed pressure. Adjust the correction factor number to obtain the identical pressure reading as
measured with the external pressure gauge. With the correct pressure displayed, press the Enter push-button to
accept the correction factor. Record the correction factor on the programming sheet for future reference.
