Advanced Setup Overview
The Advanced Setup Options provide additional setup parameters you can use to adjust the functions
and features of the ScanGauge to suit both your vehicle and your preferences.
ScanGauge provides a number of advanced setup parameters, including the ability to adjust the
reported speed to compensate for oversized tires and the ability to set the fuel cutoff level, as well as the
update rate at which ScanGauge reports data.
This section provides a brief overview of each of the advanced parameters but may not cover the full
scope of the subject the setting applies to.

UPDATE RATE
You can adjust the rate in which ScanGauge reports
data. The effect of this setting is most visible in the
Gauge Screen.
The update rate defaults to NORMAL. In some cases, a faster update rate can be used. If this causes
some updates to be skipped or irregularly operate, FAST should not be used. In some cases, even
NORMAL can be too fast and lead to poor operation.
In these cases, SLOW should be used. PWM and all the CANxx modes can usually use FAST rate. VPW,
ISO and KWP modes may have a problem with a rate higher than NORMAL.
Set Speed Adjustments
The speed indicated by ScanGauge can be adjusted to
compensate for changes in tire size, gear changes, tire
