RPM sensor mounting:
1. Connect either the yellow or white wire to sense the RPM signal.
2. The yellow wire can be wrapped around the spark plug lead.
a.Signal strength from the ignition coil is dependent on coil type.
b.Coil 2-5 turns around spark plug lead, the more turns the stronger the
signal. A weak signal will not show a reading on the screen whereas a very
strong signal will have a reading which is too high or very jittery. If the
reading is incorrect then try putting the 1MΩresistor which is included in the
box inline in the sensor wire.
3. If the signal is still unstable, please try to connect the white wire to either the
ECU rev counter output or to the primary side of the coil or to the pulse wire on
an active spark plug cap.
SPEED SENSOR Mounting:
ACEWELL has several speed sensors; the unit may include one of them. If
the model is intended to be connected to a gearbox electronic speed output to
obtain the speed reading, no speed sensor will be included.
Reed Speed Sensor and Magnet:
1. This sensor is universal sensor for motorcycle, find a rotating part to install
magnet (for example disk, sprocket or driveshaft) and a location to install the
sensor where it can be aligned to the magnet.
2. Align the center of the magnet to either of the sensor marking lines or the side
of the sensor. The magnet must not travel down the body of the sensor.
3. Installing the sensor parallel to the vibration direction creates optional
anti-vibration effect.
4. Make sure the gap between the magnet and the sensor is within 8mm.
Max. 8mm Max. 8mm

Hall E ective Speed Sensor and Magnet:
1. This is universal sensor for ATV or motorcyclefront or rear wheel
installation or motorcycle front wheel installation. For some fitments
an accessory speed sensor holder may need to be purchased.
2. Find a rotating part to install magnet (for example disk, sprocket or
driveshaft) and a location to install the sensor where it can be aligned
to the magnet
3. Align the center of the magnet to center of side face of the sensor.
4. Make sure the gap between the magnet and the sensor is within 5mm.
Speci c Hall sensors:
Cable drive adaptors for most bikes originally fitted with cable driven
speedometers or odometers are available. When using these cables it
is necessary to divide the circumference setting by the number of
rotations of the cable per rotation of the wheel.
Thermo Sensor and Sensor Tube:
1. The unit includes a water temperature sensor; you may have to
purchase a suitable water pipe temperature sensor tube to install
the sensor on some bikes.
2. Cut the water pipe, insert the temperature tube into the pipe and
secure it by attached pipe clamps.
3. Screw the sensor into the tube.
4. If your vehicle is fitted with a thermostat that stops water flowing to
the radiator when the engine is cold, you will not get a reading until
the thermostat opens.
5. Custom sensors are available for carburetted bikes to replace the
original sensor.

2. ODO datemory and cannot be reset.
RT: Riding Timer
1. Calculates total running time since last RESET.
2. Counter automatically begins with movement.
TT: Total Riding Timer
1. Calculates total riding time from the beginning of the bike.
2. TT data is stored in memory, and cannot be reset.
HRTT: Hour Meter
1. Calculates total engine operation time since installation RESET.
2. Count automatically begins with engine starting.
3. HRTT data is stored in memory, and cannot be reset.
: 12/24 hour Clock
It displays 12 or 24 hour current time.
1 and 2: Temperature Meter 1 & 2
1. It measures and displays from 0℃-180℃ / 32℉-356℉.
2. It displays -L-℃ or -L-℉ when temperature is lower than 0℃(32℉) or
disconnected temperature sensor, and displays -H- ℃ or –H-℉ when temperature
is over 180℃ or 356℉..
3. User can measure engine temperature with sensor 1 and ambient air temperature
with sensor 2.
4. The bar-temperature and digits of temperature as well temperature LED indicator
flash when the thermo sensor detects temperature higher than the maximum
preset temperature.
MAX 1&2: Maximum Temperature 1 & 2
