Trinity set up basics

Post by mikel »

Remove your Trinity CD from the package, and install the drivers, the DSDownloader, and the Dataviewer software.

Do not plug the device into the USB cable until the driver has been installed.

Once you have successfully installed the Trinity drivers, you may plug the Trinity into the USB cable and plug it in to the computer.

Launch the DSDownloader from your desktop, and select Trinity, then click accept modifications, and the DSDownloader will search for and find your Trinity.

You may now register or update your Trinity.

Shift Light set up

Post by mikel »

To set up a shift light, create a layout or open one of our layouts (in logging) that has an RPM gauge in the display.
Click on the RPM gauge.
Select 'set shift light'.
Set the RPM you would like the shift light to activate, press enter.
You'll now select whether you want one (1) LED, all LEDs, or a progressive shift light.


Now, click record and your shift light will be activated.

If you close the layout, and save it, you can open it in monitoring and your Shift light will be there.

Enable Extreme Puck Output reduction

Post by mikel »

If you have an EGT and a Puck hooked up to your Trinity, you can set an alarm for the EGT temp and have the Trinity reduce the Pucks power output to 1/3 of its current level when the alarm is triggered.

In logging, click on the EGT gauge, and select Set Gauge Alarm.
Enter the value to trigger the alarm and select which LED to display the alarm.

You will then be asked if you would like to 'Enable Xpuck Output Reduction' YES/NO.

Once you choose yes, close and save the layout.

Select yes, and now anytime the EGT reaches your predetermined set point, the puck output will immediately be reduced to 1/3 of its previous power level, as long as you are logging/monitoring in this layout.

convert display units

Post by mikel »

To convert display units from say kPa to PSI, open the layout in logging, click on the gauge, and select change display units.
It will tell you what units are currently displayed, and will tell you what alternative is available, to select that alternative choose yes.

That gauge will now display the alternative units.

Thanks for that. Just have to set it on 0 operations as well on the burnout bit so that dynoman will have full control then.
