Miscellaneous
Automatic Buzzer Off: Causes buzzer to “beep” briefly
instead of staying on. Useful during initial setup to keep
your sanity. Times out automatically.
Fuel Consumption: The DCU can calculate fuel
consumption. Leave this disabled because we don’t want
to expose possible disagreement between panel and ECM.
Speed Relays: The DCU has configurable outputs such as
relays and 24V on/off outputs. They can be triggered off of
various events. This function allows you to set a certain
engine speed and use it as a trigger. You can also log an
event in the Event Log if you wish.
56
Configuration Menu
Miscellaneous (cont’d)
Counters Source: The DCU can calculate counters in
the panel. Leave this set to J1939 since the ECM
should be the authority.
Start/Stop Buttons: Latched or “Hold-to” start/stop
Network Configuration: Change DCU’s IP address
Factory Reset: Use sparingly. Note: once activated,
the DCU must be completely powered off (not just
sleep mode) to take effect
57
Configuration Menu
SDU
Speed Sensor Configuration: Change the SDU setting for its
independent speed sensor. Note: these should always be
set to the same value, since we have a single sensor with 2
coils, reading the same flywheel.
Update DCU SDU and Update SDU DCU:
• Certain settings (such as Overspeed threshold) are used in both
the DCU and SDU. When there is a mismatch, the DCU will
raise a warning. In order to clear the warning, one of these 2
options must be selected:
– If SDU config is correct (e.g. installing a new DCU), choose
SDU DCU
– If DCU config is correct (e.g. installing a new SDU), choose
DCU SDU
