BUS INTERFACE MODULE SETUP
The bus interface modules (BIM) are an add-on product to Dakota Digital instrumentation
systems. They allow you to add auxiliary gauge functions, such as fuel pressure, vac/boost,
trans temp, etc., right into the system without having to add additional gauges. By default, all of
the BIM readings are displayed on the tachometer/LCD2 message display where the tachometer
and other performance readings are currently displayed. Switch 2 (SW2) is used to cycle through
the various message screens.
More detailed instructions are supplied with the BIM units.
DISPLAY SETUP MENU
The VHX system allows for complete user adjustability, this includes allowing you to
decide which reading you would like to display in the LCD message centers and which one you
want it to display in. Various readings can be turned on or off, allowing you scroll though the
message screens quicker, if desired, in normal operation. You can also enable a second set of
indicators for turn signals, high beam, and cruise so they are seen more easily in two places on
the dash, in the face and in the message center.
Press and hold SW 1 while turning the key on. Release the switch. Press and release
SW1 to get to the “setup displays” menu. Press and hold the SW1 until the message
changes, then release SW1.
Secondary indicator setup (indicators)
This menu will allow you to select where the indicators are displayed and if you want them
shown in the face of of the system, light only, or if you would like them also displayed in the LCD1
message center as well as the face so they are more visible in two locations.
When “displays indicators” is displayed, press and hold SW1 until the message
screen changes
Release SW1, and the current setting will be displayed as “indicators” “Light only”
or “Light + LCD”
Press and release SW1 to change the value from “Light only” which only displays the
indicators for turn signal, high beam, and cruise in the indicator light on the gauge face,
or “Light + LCD” that enables a secondary set of indicators in the LCD1 message
screen.
When the desired value is displayed, press and hold SW1 until “DONE” is displayed
Release the switch to go on to the next menu item.
