MICRO STORM 2-Stage, Dual Ramp Progressive Nitrous Controller PN: MS-001 Distributed by: Scoggin Dickey Parts Center 5901 Spur 327 Lubbock, TX 79424 Email: orders@sdparts.com Sales: 1-800-456-0211 www.sdparts.com Micro Storm User Manual, SDPC, Rev 2.91.pub 16 July 2018...

Brake input is active (+12 volt applied) the nitrous activation is ignored until the Clutch/Trans Brake input is released. This eliminates the need for additional relays when staging at wide open throttle. The MS-001 can be used with wet or dry nitrous systems.
Parameter #1 controls which setup is selected (currently active). “ESC” buttons refers to pressing the “ENTER” and “DOWN” buttons at the same time. Micro Storm Modes of Operation: Ready Mode: The controller must be in Ready mode to be activated. This is the default mode when the unit is powered up.

Test Mode: Test Mode is used to test the nitrous system without the engine running. Micro Storm nitrous controllers sold before 1/1/2016 will enter Test Mode if all of the activation criteria are met but no RPM signal is present.

Parameter list Descriptions 1—Current Setup: This setting controls which setup is active. Valid range is 1 to 5 in increments of 1. Stage1 settings: 2—Nitrous Delay Time Stage1: This setting controls the delay time in seconds for nitrous stage1 to activate. Valid range is 0.00 to 9.99 in increments of .01 second.

9—Nitrous Build Time1—Stage2: This setting controls the time it takes stage2 to go from the starting percentage to the final percentage. The nitrous will progressively ramp from the start to final setting in the time programmed for this parameter. A shorter time (example 0.2 second) will create a very aggressive ramp and a longer time (example 9.9 seconds) will create a smoother application of power.

15—TPS percentage for activation: This setting is only used if TPS enable option is ON. This setting determines the TPS percent at which system activation will occur. Valid Range is 70 to 100 percent in 1 percent increments. 16—Set TPS closed & WOT voltage with Live data: This setting is only used if TPS enable option is ON. When using this feature enter programming mode as outlined on page 4.

21—Nitrous OFF rpm: This is the maximum RPM that the nitrous will be active. If there is no tach input signal this feature is disabled. This setting MUST be greater than the Nitrous ON RPM. Valid range is 0 to 16,000 RPM in 100 RPM increments. 22—Timer / Shift Light Select: This setting determines if the Relay Output functions as a Timer with Delay or a RPM controlled Shift Light Output.

Dual ramp optional parameters: 25—Nitrous Final Percent2—Stage1: This setting controls the final or maximum nitrous power applied if the “Dual Ramp” feature is ON. The nitrous power ramp will be the start percentage to final percent #1, final percent #1 to final percent #2. The ramp time is controlled by the build time #1 and build time #2 settings. The progressive ramps can be programmed to increase or decrease the nitrous power.

If this is NOT possible then the connection should be to the frame. There MUST be a quality, large diameter ground cable going from the battery negative terminal to the frame if the frame connection method is used. This is critical because the MS-001 is providing the ground path for the solenoid current via this wire.

Nitrous and Fuel Solenoids: The MS-001 can be used in wet or dry nitrous systems. In wet systems the nitrous and fuel solenoids for each stage are pulsed at the same rate and controlled by the same output wire. If you are using only a single stage of nitrous, you can choose to have the fuel controlled by the second output stage and then you can control the fuel percentage, ramp and delay independent of the nitrous.
