4. Opsætning og installation
Follow these general steps for installing the Polini RPM 2 Temperature Meter. Specific installation points may vary depending on your motorcycle model.
- Mount the Display Unit: Choose a suitable location on your motorcycle's dashboard or handlebars that provides clear visibility and does not obstruct controls. Use the provided mounting accessories (e.g., Velcro) to secure the display unit.
- Tilslut strøm: Connect the main wiring harness to a switched 12V power source on your motorcycle (e.g., ignition switch). Ensure proper polarity (positive to positive, negative to ground).
- Install RPM Sensor:
- For most motorcycles, the RPM sensor connects to the ignition coil's primary circuit or a dedicated RPM signal wire.
- Wrap the RPM sensor wire around the spark plug cable or connect it to the appropriate signal wire as per your motorcycle's service manual.
- Secure the sensor cable to prevent interference or damage.
- Install Temperature Sensors:
- Identify two locations for temperature monitoring (e.g., cylinder head, radiator hose, exhaust manifold).
- Install the temperature sensors at these chosen points. This may require specific adapters or drilling, depending on the sensor type and location.
- Connect the temperature sensor cables to the corresponding inputs on the display unit's wiring harness.
- Sikker ledningsføring: Route all cables neatly and secure them with cable ties to prevent them from interfering with moving parts or being damaged by heat or abrasion.
- Indledende test: After installation, turn on the motorcycle's ignition (do not start the engine yet) to verify the display unit powers on. Then, start the engine and check if RPM and temperature readings are displayed correctly.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
The Polini RPM 2 Temperature Meter is designed for straightforward operation.
- Tænd/sluk: The unit typically powers on automatically with the motorcycle's ignition and powers off when the ignition is turned off.
- Skærmtilstande: The display unit will show RPM and two temperature readings. There may be buttons on the unit to cycle through different display modes or to adjust settings. Refer to the on-screen prompts or specific button functions.
- Reading RPM: The main display will show the engine's revolutions per minute (RPM).
- Reading Temperatures: Two separate temperature readings will be displayed, corresponding to the installed sensors. Units are typically in Celsius or Fahrenheit, depending on the model's configuration.
- Setting Alarms (if applicable): Some models may allow setting high RPM or temperature alarms. Consult the device's specific interface for instructions on setting these thresholds.
6. Vedligeholdelse
To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your Polini RPM 2 Temperature Meter, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Rensning: Tør displayenheden af med en blød kludamp klæde. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler.
