The percentage function allows the user to map a corresponding percentage to the input voltage. This is done using the
16-point table provided on the form. The output will be displayed in a 0-100% format and if a gauge is selected it will use
the 0-100% gauge.
6.4.3 Data Log Enable Function
The data log enable allows for remote starting of a data log. This can be wired to a button that is active high (greater than
5V) or an active low button to ground. On the function form, select the option if the switch is active high or active low.
Enter a debounce time. The debounce time is a time that the switch must be stable in a particular state (either high or low)
before it starts the log. A typical debounce time is 0.2 seconds. The dash can start and stop a log based on information it
receives from devices or other on-board channels. To have the dash start logging based on just the switch, set the start
and stop condition to disabled. To have the dash start logging based on a particular input, select the input from the drop
down list. Enter the condition, either less than or equal to or greater than or equal to, and then the value it needs to test
on. When the logging button is pressed and the start condition is true, the unit will start logging. The stop condition can be
set up similar to the start condition. When the stop condition is true the log will stop. One option to have logging based
on only the start and stop conditions are to use a channel that is typically 0V and have the logging switch based on a low
input. This will have the logger always testing on the start condition and start a log when it becomes true. When the stop
condition is true, it will stop the log and return to waiting for the start condition to be true. Every time it starts a new log, it
will make a new data log fi le with the date and time.
6.4.4 Disable Touchscreen
The Disable Touchscreen function prevents the touchscreen from functioning when the assigned input sees 3.85 volts or
higher. This function is useful for situations like off-roading where the screen may need to be wiped off regularly due to
dust or may be bumped accidentally.
