Nitrous Express Octane Series Bottle Volume User Manual
Page 12
Once you reach the level that you consider your empty level, go to the bottle level configuration
screen, select Set Empty and press the control button in to save. NOW every time you refill
your bottle you must press the control button and scroll to Reset Full Bottle. Press the control
button in and the gauge will now be set to full, and you will return to the main screen. Now use
you nitrous system as you would normally.
REMINDER: every time you put a full bottle into the car, you must tell the gauge you did so.
Important:
Each time the gauge detects that your solenoids are activated, it begins to track your nitrous usage and
will display an hourglass ICON.
DO NOT power off the gauge while the hourglass ICON is present
. Once the gauge
detects that no further solenoid activity has occurred, it updates the usage log and turns off the ICON. At this point it is
safe to power off the gauge. Failure to do this will impact the accuracy of the gauge.

Here are some tips for moving around and reprogramming your gauge.
•
On the main viewing screen, push the control button up will change your screen to different views. This allows
you to watch your sensors as just like it’s another gauge. EXP. While tuning N/A you could watch air/fuel as if
your
Bottle Volume
gauge was just an air/fuel gauge. (sensor must be programmed and plugged into an Air/Fuel
source).
•
On the main viewing screen, push the control button down and your gauge will dim. Helpful when driving at night
to lesson the brightness of your
Bottle Volume
gauge. Push down again to return to bright.
•
You do not have to go through each programming screen just to program 1 screen. You can enter configure
mode and can jump to which ever mode you need to adjust. Same goes within a configure mode you can jump to
the parameter you want to adjust. When finish just exit out then Exit/Save and you are done.
•
Your heaters default mode is disabled. You will always need to enable your heater for it to work and heat your
bottle, when you power down your gauge the heater will turn off.
•
You may see some coloration though the bar graph areas. This is called banding and is normal and will not hurt
the gauge in any way.
•
When you have a cutout trip you will see a large RED area around the area that caused the trip. You will need to
push the control button in, to reset this feature. This allows you to see what caused the nitrous system to turn off.
•
Throughout your programming the term scaling is used. This deals with the bar under your numerical readouts.
•
Make sure the ground wire to the
Bottle Volume
gauge is by itself on a good clean area, (meaning no other wires
are connected to it or in the general area). Especially hi amp cycling wires like solenoids etc.
•
NEVER PUSH ON THE SCREEN WHEN INSERTING ELECTICAL SOCKET, DAMAGE TO THE SCREEN WILL
HAPPEN.
•
NEVER CONNECT THE POWER AND GROUND BACKWARDS. THIS WILL FRY YOUR GAUGE.
