PERFORMANCE TESTING

Note: For the Banks PowerPDA to do
performance testing, Gauge G3 or G4
must be set to monitor MPH. Refer to
section 10 to change Gauge G3 or G4
to read MPH. If a performance test is
selected without either gauge G3 or
G4 displaying MPH, a pop-up window
will appear.
For any of the performance tests to
be accurate, the vehicle must not be
moving at the start of the test. The
recommended method of setting up a
'Performance Test' is as follows:
a. Engine on, Banks PowerPDA on,
transmission gear in park.
b. Foot firmly on brake, select drive
gear.
c. Select the desired 'Performance
Test'.
d. Banks PowerPDA is armed and
ready for testing .
e. Test begins once vehicle motion is
detected.
