Dakota Digital HLY-6000 Manual

Please read this before beginning installation or wiring.
POWER
Connect the red wire from the main harness to accessory power from the ignition switch. In addition to
powering the display system, this is also where the low voltage detection circuit monitors the electrical system
voltage.
A good quality, solid state ignition switch should be used. The contacts on a mechanical "bar" switch can
bounce due to the vibration and cause the system to momentarily loose power and reset itself.
Never connect this to a battery charger alone. It needs to have a 12 volt battery connected to it. Battery
chargers have an unregulated voltage output that will cause the system to not operate properly.
GROUND
The black wire is the main ground for display system. This should be connected directly to the negative
cable on the battery. Connecting to a tank or frame ground can cause a weak or intermittent ground connection. A
poor ground connection can cause improper or erratic operation.
NEUTRAL, TURN SIGNAL & HIGH BEAM INDICATORS
The right turn, left
turn, and high beam indicators
are activated by 12 volts at
their respective hook-up wires.
The right turn signal
wire is green, the left turn
signal wire is orange, and the
high beam wire is purple.
These can be connected to
the same wires that the
indicator lights are connected
to. The display system wire
colors may not match the wire
colors in your electrical wire
harness.
The neutral indicator
is activated when the blue wire is grounded. Connect this wire to the neutral switch or to the negative side of the
neutral indicator light. When the indicator is activated, an N will be lit up to the right of the speedometer.
TRIP RESET & FUNCTION SWITCH
The push button switch is found on the front face of the display. To reset the trip mileage, press and hold
the switch in. Pressing the switch while turning power on will enter the setup menus.
