Safe-Mode:

If the Display is locked for access over OBD2, you still can activate the "Safe-Mode". For that just press the "Temperature-Icon" at the keypad-page. OBD2 is still free for use, but some values will be shown like Battery-Voltage, Water-, Oil- and Gearboxtemperatur.

Attention: To exit the Safe-Mode you need to press in the bottom left corner, 5 times within 2 seconds!

 

 

1. Main Menu

 

Description:

Water- and Oiltemperature is shown at most pages at the top right (the colors can be changed in the settings)

Carstatus: Open the first page of carstatus

Time measurement: Open the time measurement

Errorcodes: Menu to read and delete Errors from the engine control unit

Settings: Menu für different settings

"Info-Symbol": Shows display and controller versions and some more cardata (GPS, Fuel-Level and so on)

 "Brightness Symbol": Switch automatic - manual brightness controll (values can be changed in the settings)

"Lock-Symbol": This is very important if you want to have a connection to the car by OBD2-Port. For more informations click here.

Page 1 (Temperatures)

Description:

At the top the speed (calculated with the offset - see settings manual) is shown.

Watertemperature

Oiltemperature

Intake temperature (IAT)

Exhaust temperature (calculated by the ECU). If more than one "Bank" the display always shows the higher value.

Description:

This page shows:

- The maximum reached torque

- The maximum reached power (including the torque and rpm where the maximum power was)

- The maximum reached boost pressure (in some cases there will be a too high pressure because there was a peak when the throttle close faster than the pressure will be blown off)

- The maximum reached Inlet Air Temperature (IAT)

- The maximum reached speed (if offset was done good, real value not wrong car-speed)

4. Errorcodes

In this menu you can read the first 4 ECU error codes and delete them.

It is planed (in future updates) that all error codes in all control units are displayed.

Description:

Left symbol: Read the error code (0000 at first Error means that no error is active)

Right symbol: Delete actual error (0000 at first Error indicates that the deleting was successful) 

 

 

5. Settings:

Menu with available settings: Boot, Features, Global and System.

If a text is blue, it has more functions, press it to open / change the function.

If the scrollbar on the right side is half white, the page will scroll up/down by pressing the scrollbar.

Boot settings:

The Bootsettings are for functions during the boot up (ignition on).

Description:

The functions can vary depending on the engine and cartype.

Press the checkbox to activate/deactivate the function.

OBD2 blocking:

This function is only enableable when a PIN was given (main menu - lock symbol). If OBD2 blocking is activated it is hard to get access to the ECU and the CAS by the OBD2 Port. This should make it harder for thiefs to steel the car by i.e. create a key-copy. If this function is activated every time the car will be opened the PIN is needed to deactivate the OBD2 Blocker and activate the display.

Boot last pagee:

Boots up with the last page which was open.

Needle Sweep:

Will sweep the speed and rpm needle to a value which can be chosen by pressing the menu test "Needle Sweep".

DTC/DSC:

Sets the DTC / DSC function to the selected value after ignition is switched on.

Soundtuning off:

Some F-Series engines do have this feature by default on. The DataDisplay is able to deactivate this function. "Soundtuning" will do some "pop/bang" out of the exhaust.

 

Feature settings:

In this settings you can select some more features for sensors and or special devices.

Description:

Relaycontrol:

If you installed the relay extension board you have to activate this option. You can control up to 4 relays. New icon will appear in the main menu. Mit dem DataDisplay lassen sich mit unserer Relaisplatine bis zu 4 externe Relais ansteuern. Ist die Funktion aktiviert erscheint im Hauptmenü ein weiterer Punkt mit dem sich das Ansteuerungsmenü öffnen lässt.

Exhaustflap:

If your car has an exhaust flap you can activate this option to control the exhaust flap (open/close/auto) in the main menu of the DataDisplay. There is also an option to control the exhaust flap over the steering wheel buttons (MFL-Setup).

Oiltemperature Sensor:

Some Diesel Engines (E-Series) do not have the oiltemperature mapped to the ECU. In that case you need our external oiltemperature sensor and activate this option.

Ext. Oilpressure Sensor:

Activates the external oilpressure sensor.

Shiftlight:

Activates the shiftlight function. (detailed instruction follows).

Exhaust temperature sensor:

It is possible to connect external exhaust temperature sensors to the DataDisplay.

TMAP Sensor scaled:

A function usually used by N54 engines with a different 3.5 bar TMAP Sensor. If the map scales the boost pressure to have more than 1.5 bar pressure you need also to activate this function to see the real values. Normally the map has up to 10 psi the same pressure range and above only the half of the real pressure.

Delete-R:

F-Series function. The option suppresses the catalyst error if the downpipes do not have the original catalyst inside. 

Limits activated:

The Limits are at Beta-Status at the moment. With the limits you can switch relays in combination with a lot cardata values or just give a Warning in case some values are under or above your limits. If everything works fine this instruction will be updated.

 

Global Settings:

Description:

Activation:

Shows the status of the activation (should be always green - activated).

Color Setup:

In this menu you can choose the color range of each color (red, yellow, green) for Water-, Oil and Intake Air Temperature.

Speed Offset:

The speed offset is very important if you want accurate time measurement. Details later.

Torque Offset:

If the torque shown in the Display is not your correct torque you can change the factor here.

 

System Settings:

Description:

Units / Language:

Change the Units (bar/psi, °C/°F and so on) and the language.

Reinit:

The Reinit let you start from scratch by choosing language, cartype, gearbox and so on. All settings will still be there.

Reboot:

Reboot the DataDisplay.

Factory Reset:

All settings will be deleted and the Display starts with the first installation.

Debug:

Eine spezielle Seite die es dem Support erleichtert Fehler bei Kunden zu finden.

Motor M57TU / M57TU2:

Eine wichtige Einstellung für Fahrzeuge mit dem M57TU Motor. Standardwert ist M57TU2, sollte es sich bei dem Fahrzeug um einen M57TU handeln muss diese Einstellung umgestellt werden damit alle Werte angezeigt werden.

JB4 verbaut / nicht verbaut:

E-Serie Option. Sollte ein JB4-Leistungsbox verbaut sein muss diese Option aktiviert werden. Es werden dann viele Werte nicht mehr funktionieren da das DataDisplay sonst in Konflikt mit dem JB4 kommt.
