o Tachometer wiring
Connect the MFC tachometer wire to the cars tachometer output wire. Make
sure you run the tachometer calibration on the SoftDash software to ensure
optimal monitoring of the tachometer system.
o SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
The direct Remote Start Recipe is included in the default download package of
the software. There are two types of button control settings included with the
package. One is a one touch remote start setup. Touch to Start, Touch to Stop,
and the other is a 2 stage self controlled remote start whereby the first stage
activates all the accessories, and the second stage cranks the ignition for a
start, using tachometer monitoring as well as pulsed timeout.
For the trigger accessory line of the ignition wire, set the maximum safety
timeout for that line to be 4 sec. (This means that no matter what
recipe/accessory configuration is assigned to that line, the maximum time
that output will be activated is 4 sec).
The other accessory lines can be set to infinite timeout or e.g. a 10minute
timeout, if you want the remote start to shut down after 10mins.
