Chapter 5. Installing the Display System
Street Dash Users Guide 27
Positioning the Display Module
Ensure that there is sufficient space behind the cut-out to allow
the wiring harness to be connected to the 19-way connector
without any tight bends to the wiring near the connector.
The Display Module must be positioned on the dashboard so that
the driver can see it, either over the steering wheel or through it.
The Display Module should be aligned so that the driver looks at
it square or from slightly above or below.
Switches
The four switches are used to control the functions of the Display
System.
The normal functions of the four switches are: :
Switch Functions
Switch 1 Show the peak values.
Switch 2 Clear an alarm or show the last alarm.
Switch 3 Change the display layer or clear an alarm.
Switch 4 Reset the trip distance to zero and start the lap timer. The
trip distance is reset after each lap.
Switches 1 & 2 Enter Set up mode.
Switches 1 & 4 Reset the peak values and lap times.
You can install the switches in any convenient location. When
installing the switches, you should take account of the following
considerations:
• Drill a half inch hole in a suitable panel or manufacture a
bracket with a hole in it.
• Insert the switch from the reverse side of the panel and
screw on the rubber cover from the front. Do not over-
tighten the nut; just greater than hand-tight should be
enough.
• The cable for each switch is approximately 16” in length
from the 19-way military connector.
•
It is important that the driver is able to reach Switch 3
easily in order to change the display and clear warning
messages after alarms. This switch can be fitted on the
steering wheel.
• When you configure the system, you use Switches 1 to 4
for selecting the parameters and setting their values. These
switches should be installed so that you can reach them
easily when you are viewing the digital display.
