Prior to installation of your tachometer, check with the ignition box manufacturer for recommended tachometer signal location.  \n* [See autometer.com/tech_installation.aspx for specific](See autometer.com/tech_installation.aspx for specific)[ ](See autometer.com/tech_installation.aspx for specific)[vehicle information.](vehicle information.)  \nMounting  \nPedestal  \n1) Loosen both bolts holding the shock strap to the mounting foot. Back both bolts out until each is only one or two turns into the spacer.  \n2) Pass tach wires through shock strap assembly and slide tach casing into shock strap assembly.  \n3) Adjust tach and mounting base to desired position and tighten bolts holding mounting foot to shock strap to secure the assembly.  \n4) The special design of the tachometer base allows for a variety of mounting possibilities. Attach the base using screws provided or use apop rivet tool.  \nIn-Dash  \n1. Mount tachometer in a 33/8\" dia. hole. Be careful not to cut the hole too large.  \n2. Cut 3/8\" dia. hole in the firewall for the tachometer wires. Place a rubber grommet in the hole and route the wires through the grommet to the engine compartment.  \n3. Connect the tachometer wires as shown in the wiring sections.  \n4. Secure the tachometer to the dashboard using the provided bracket and hardware.  \nNormal Operation  \nThe Elite Street tach uses the dial backlight as a shift light indicator. The RPM of the engine will indicate one of the following ranges:  \nNOTE: This table uses example values in the RPM RANGE and BACKLIGHT COLOR columns. These values are user selectable.  \n\n| RPM RANGE | BACKLIGHT COLOR | BACKLIGHT MODE | COMMENTS |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 0-6,000 | Green | Normal | Programming Mode 1 |\n| 6,000-7,000 | Yellow | Warning | Programming Mode 2 |\n| 7,000-8,000 | Red | Shift | Programming Mode 3 |\n| 8,000 | Flashing Red | Over-Rev | Programming Mode 4 |\n\nThese RPM ranges, the colors for each mode, the Pulses-Per-Rev (PPR), and Dimming Enable/Disable can be modified using the three buttons in the dial of the tach. These user selectable values are accessible from one of four programming modes.  \nProgramming Mode 1 -Pulse Per Rev (PPR), Normal Backlight Color and Dimming Enable/Disable.  \nThe Dimming mode is selected upon the entry to this mode. When this mode is entered, the voltage on the white wire is measured. If the voltage is above 1 volt, dimming is enabled, and the back light brightness will be proportional, following the voltage on the white wire. If the white wire is not connected, or the voltage is below 1volt, dimming is disabled, and the back light will be at full brightness 100% of the time.  \nTo display and edit the current PPR and Normal Backlight color:  \n• Press all three buttons simultaneously. The pointer will move to the RPM that indicates the current PPR and back light will begin flashing once per second. Release all three buttons.  \n• Use the ‘+’(right) button and the ‘-’ (left) button to move the pointer to the RPM that represents the desired PPR (see chart below) .  \n• Press and release the ENTER (middle) button to capture and store the PPR. The back light will begin flashing twice per second.  \n• Use the ‘+’(right) button and the ‘-’ (left) button to cycle through the seven back light colors.  \n• With the desired normal back light color active, press and release the ENTER (middle) button to capture and save the changes. If the there are no button presses for four seconds, the tach will return to normal tach mode without saving any changes.  \nNOTE: The pointer is used to indicate the PPR (Pulse Per Rev)  \nsetting in the tach per the following table:  \n\n| ENGINE |  | Most 2 cyl.","cbCaiiHThXKKNUue","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiHThXKKNUue","pdf",279196,"English","# Wiring\n# Mounting\n## Pedestal\n## In-Dash\n# Normal Operation\n# Programming Modes\n## Mode 1: PPR, Normal Backlight, Dimming\n## Mode 2: Warning RPM and Backlight Color\n## Mode 3: Shift Point RPM and Backlight Color","[{\"question\":\"What warning is given about connecting the tach wires to the ignition coil?\",\"answer\":\"Warranty is void if connected to the coil when using an aftermarket ignition box (e.g., from MSD, Crane, Jacobs, Mallory, or Holley).
