8. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram. Use the

dual fire hookup shown in Figure 4 if you have an
OE coil or other coil with two primary terminals.
Use the single fire hookup in Figure 5 if you are
installing an aftermarket coil with three primary
terminals. Use appropriate crimp terminals for coil
and VOES hookup. With the exception of the
tachometer and rear coil section (single fire only),
standard H-D

wire color codes are used. Tape up

any unused wires.

9. Install the supplied Weather Pack connector set on

the brown tachometer wire as shown. If a
tachometer is not used, seal the end of the mating
plug with silicone RTV and use it as a protective
cover. Use a proper Weather Pack crimping tool or
solder the terminals. Pioneer-Standard
(

www.packard.pios.com

) sells Packard crimping

tool P/N 12014254. Snap-on sells a low cost tool,
P/N PWC30.

10. Single Fire Tach Hookup. If your motorcycle had

a tach before installation of the Zipper’s module,
the tach was connected to the pink coil wire. When
you connect the tach direct to the Zipper’s module
as shown in Figure 5 for a single fire application,
you must make sure that it is not still connected to
the pink coil wire. Trace the wire going all the way
back to the tach to avoid an inadvertent coil
connection.

11. Reconnect the battery ground cable. Complete the

setup and timing procedures given on pages 3-7.

12. Reinstall the cover plate using two supplied 10-24

x 1/4" socket head screws and lock washers in
place of the original rivets. You will have to tap the
rivet holes on the inner plate (do this with the plate
removed from the bike to avoid damaging the
ignition). You can use the supplied 10-24 x 3/8"
self threading screw as a tap.

OPERATING MODES

A single 10 position rotary switch is used to

select the operating mode. Switch settings are as
follows:

0 Street advance curves, dual fire, multi-spark disabled

1 Street advance curves, dual fire, multi-spark enabled

2 Street advance curves, single fire, multi-spark disabled

3 Street advance curves, single fire, multi-spark enabled

4 Race advance curves, dual fire, multi-spark disabled

5 Race advance curves, dual fire, multi-spark enabled

6 Race advance curves, single fire, multi-spark disabled

7 Race advance curves, single fire, multi-spark enabled

8-9 Boot load mode (see text)

The engine will not run if the mode switch setting

does not match the wiring hookup (i.e. you cannot
select single fire mode with a dual fire coil hookup).

Advance curve families are shown in Figures 6

and 7. Use the street advance curves (mode switch
settings 0-3) for stock or mildly modified engines. Use
the race advance curves (mode switch settings 4-7) for
high compression engines.

We recommend that you enable multi-spark.

When multi-spark is enabled, a continuous series of
sparks is fired from the advanced timing point until
TDC. Most air-cooled engines require relatively cold
spark plugs to prevent detonation under high load.
Multi-spark reduces the consequent tendency for plug
fouling at idle.

Switch settings 8-9 are used only for a special

"boot load" mode that allows loading an entirely new
program into the processor FLASH memory. This
would only be done in special circumstances.







CAUTION: Engine damage from
excessive timing advance may result if
the purple/white VOES wire is
inadvertently shorted to ground.

CAUTION: Single fire only. Failure to
isolate the tach wire from the coil will
cause damage to the Zipper’s module
that is not covered under warranty.

NOTE: The unit is grounded by means
of the gear case housing. The mounting
surface must not be anodized or
painted.
