Please read and follow the instructions below regarding the installation and operation of your DPS to receive maximum benefit and accuracy from this product.
Failure to follow the information below will void the product warranty and may result in damage to your vehicle, this product, and/or personal injury.
NOTE: This product features INTENSELY-BRIGHT LEDS! This feature is intended for maximum driver visibility during daytime operation and high glare
situations. Usage of this product at full brightness during nighttime or extremely dark settings may adversely affect driver's vision. AutoMeter strongly
recommends that you familiarize yourself with the dimming function of this product and that you do not operate the product at full brightness during
dim or dark lighting conditions.

INSTALLATION

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.
2. Gauge can be mounted in a 2
or AutoMeter Gauge Works Pod.
3. Wire gauge as indicated. See schematic on following page for more info:
Red Wire: Connect to a fused and switched 12V positive source that is turned on and off with the ignition switch.
Black Wire: C onnect to a good engine, chassis, or battery ground.
Green Wire: Connect to the negative terminal of a standard ignition coil, or to the "Tach Output" terminal on the Electronic Ignition Module. (See diagram)
Blue Wire:
(Optional) Connect to positive terminal of Trans-Brake or Line Lock Solenoid. Alternatively, connect to the Brake Light Switch, Clutch Switch,
or a dedicated Remote Start Switch (normally open, momentary closed).
Violet Wire (Active only during playback): Connect this wire to the input (green wire) of a standard AutoMeter tachometer.
QUICK SET OPTIONS:
Day/Night Dimming control: This product is extremely bright at the maximum setting for best visibility for drivers during high glare situations. AutoMeter
does not recommend operating this product at full brightness during extremely dark or night time driving conditions. To adjust this product from the daytime or
"High" brightness setting to the nighttime or "Low" brightness setting do the following:
• Press and hold the MENU (+) button for 2 seconds. The shift light will display the new brightness level and the display will indicate
what mode you are changing into with "Hi" or "Lo".
Launch RPM Quick Set – If you need to change your Launch Light Setting quickly, do so when the vehicle engine is running and the Digital Pro Shift is in "Tach
Mode" by raising the engine RPM until you have reached the desired set point. Press the ENTER button to confirm your new Launch Light Setting. You should
see the Decimal indicator flash quickly to confirm.
Remove RPM Display – Sometimes fewer distractions are better for a driver. If you want to be able to focus on just the shift light when you're making a per-
formance run and don't want to be distracted by the digital RPM display, you can disable the display function. To turn on/off the display function, from "Tach
Mode," press and hold the ENTER button for 2 seconds. The display will indicate "on" or "off" to indicate which mode you will be changing to.
NOTE: This function takes affect in all modes. The Shift-Lite LEDS and the "Preset/Record" indicator LED will be the only active elements on the display.

  • Page 3 SETUP and OPERATION MODES A.) MENU MODE – To Select Menu Mode, press the MODE (+) button. To exit setup mode and return to Real Time display, press EXIT (–). B.) RECORD MODE – The DPS must be in “Preset” mode before the Record mode can be started. This is accomplished by applying +12v to the Blue wire. This can be done with a remote start switch, trans brake or line lock solenoid, brake switch or clutch switch (refer to the Wiring diagram). The right most decimal point should now be blinking indicating that you have entered “Preset” mode. While in Preset mode, the Launch Lite function will become active. In this mode, the Shift-Lite will perform as follows: When the RPM is below the Launch RPM Set Point: the Shift-Lite will be off. When the RPM is at the Launch RPM set point +/-100 RPM: the Shift-Lite will be on. When the RPM is above the Launch RPM set point: the Shift-Lite will flash. Once the unit enters Record mode, the Launch Lite function will no longer be active.
