10.3.2 RPM Input Dipswitch settings
Setting dipswitch 5 to the “ON” position (default) enables a high frequency filter in the RPM 1
signal path.
Setting dipswitch 6 to the “ON” position (default) enables a high frequency filter in the RPM 2
signal path.
Some installations (direct coupling to a Magneto device for example) will require this to be
switched “OFF”. Dipswitch 1 is the closest switch to the edge of the PCB.
