To set or change the ID number:
The ID will not normally need to be changed. A green-red-red flash on the BIM-03-2 status light indicates an ID
conflict with another connected BIM. The following procedure will allow the BIM-03-2 to automatically select a new,
unused ID.
•
Hold the switch on BIM while turning the key on. The BIM status light will be steady RED.
•
Release the switch.
•
When the status light begins flashing, it is finished.
The labels and warning points are set up through the gauge display system.
Only VFD3/3X controls with a plastic case support adding BIM's.
For VFD3, VFD3X, and VHX systems follow these steps:
•
Make sure the BIM units are all connected to the gauge control box with the 3.5mm data cables.
•
Hold the SW1 switch from the gauge system control box while turning the key on. The message display should
show SETUP.
•
Release SW1.
•
Press and release SW1 until BIM is shown on the message display.
•
Press and hold SW1. The message display should show SCAN followed by the number of BIM channels
detected. Release SW1.
•
If 0 is shown, check all connections and then press and hold SW1 with SCAN shown to retry reading the modules.
•
Otherwise, if any other number is shown, press and release SW1 until SETUP is shown.
•
Press and hold SW1 until the speed display shows " – " or the message changes.
•
Release SW1. On the VFD3 systems the message display will show the label assigned to the first channel found
and the speed display will show "C" followed by the channel ID number. On the VHX systems the message
display will show "CH" followed by the channel ID number on one line and the label currently assigned on the
second line.
•
Press and release SW1 until the desired channel ID number is shown.
•
Press and hold SW1. The message display will show "LABEL".
•
Release SW1. The message display will show the label assigned to this channel.
•
Press and release SW1 until the desired label is shown.
•
Press and hold SW1. The message display will show "WARN".
•
Release SW1. The message display will show "L" followed by the current low warning point or will flash the
warning point.
•
Press and release SW1 to change the low warning point to the desired value.
•
Press and hold SW1 until the speed display shows " – ".
•
Release SW1. The message display will show "H" followed by the current high warning point or will flash the
warning point.
•
Press and release SW1 to change the high warning point to the desired value.
•
Press and hold SW1. The message display will now show "DONE".
•
This can be repeated for additional channels, or the key can be turned off to exit setup.
For HDX systems follow these steps:
•
Make sure the BIM units are all connected to the gauge control box.
•
With the ignition on, press and hold both switches to enter SETUP. With external switches hold either one while
turning the ignition on. Release the switches when SETUP is shown.
•
Press and release either switch until BIM is selected. Press and hold either switch to enter BIM setup menu.
•
Release the switch. A list of the BIM's found should be shown. If NONE FOUND is displayed then check
connections to the BIM-03-2.
•
Press and release either switch until BIM-03-2 is selected. The status LED on the BIM will flash RED-GREEN.
•
Press and hold either switch to enter setup for this module.
•
Release the switch. The menu will show FORMAT, LABEL, WARN LO, WARN HI, CALIBRATE, BACK. Any
menu that does not apply to this BIM will be grey and cannot be selected.
•
Use either switch to select the option you wish to change, (refer to the HDX manual for specifics).
•
When you are finished select BACK to return to the BIM selection menu.
•
When you are finished, select BACK to return to the BIM list menu, select BACK to return to the main menu, and
then select EXIT SETUP to return to normal operation.
With HDX systems the setup can also be done with the Dakota Digital app for Apple and Android devices.
