*NOTE: When selecting the cylinder count, be aware of tach signals coming from ECMs,
oftentimes a V-8 engine computer may actually output a 4 cylinder tach signal. This would
require the

” as you might expect.
Display update setup (UPDATE)
The display update rate can be adjusted so the reading on the tachometer doesn’t change

reading is above this setting, the output will activate, providing a ground signal. It can be used to
turn on a shift light or other RPM based devices. The value is adjustable from 2,200 RPM –
14,800 RPM in 100 RPM increments.

Tach signal setup (SIGNAL)
This menu will allow you to select from two different tach-input types. A low voltage, 5V
LO, tach signal or a high voltage tach signal, 12V HIgh. A low voltage signal is usually one
picked up from the ECM. Low voltage may also be considered a 0-5V square wave. If you are
getting the tach signal from the ignition coil or points, set this for the high voltage signal 12V
HIgh. To pick up a tach signal from a traditional ignition coil, connect a signal wire to the
negative side of the coil.
