 Programming Modes 
Programming functions of the IQ3 are accessed by using Button 1 and Button 2. Button 1 is 
considered Left Button and Button 2 is considered Right Button. It is recommended the two 
programming buttons be mounted as Left and Right, in relation to the driver’s position viewing 
the dash.  There are two programming modes available. 
Setup Mode 1 (Stationary): Utilized to program items such as screen brightness or pulses 
per revolution (tach programming).  
Setup Mode 2 (Moving): Utilized to program the system while the vehicle is moving and or 
the engine is running. This is necessary as several settings utilize actual data taken from speed 
or rpm, in order to program.

As can be seen above, the buttons perform the opposite functions depending on the mode. 
Since the IQ3 only utilizes two buttons, it was necessary to allow multiple uses for each button. 
The length of time the button is held down determines the programming action taken. The shift 
lights are used to indicate the action taken with each button.  
The following instructions will refer to short, medium and long button press lengths. This is the 
length of time the button is held down and the corresponding shift light blink. 
Type of Button Press  Length of Time  Shift Light Flash 
Short Press  .2 Second  One Flash Of Shift Lights 
Medium Press  .5 Second  Two Flash Of Shift Lights 
Long Press  2 Seconds  Three Flash Of Shift Lights 
Auto Repeating Long Press  3 Seconds  Repeats Every .2 Seconds 
The point at which the button is released determines the type press that is accepted. Releasing 
after the second shift light flash is detected as a medium length press. 
The programming functions are arranged in a pre-defined order. This allows the customer to 
enter the programming mode, and then toggle through to the desired feature, by using the left 
or right button, depending on the mode.
