Kontrol sensitivitas nyetel agresivitas rem trailer. Pangaturan sensitivitas ora ana pengaruh ing kontrol manual. Kontrol sensitivitas bisa diatur kanggo preferensi driver individu, owah-owahan muatan trailer utawa ganti kahanan dalan.
SET MANUAL CONTROL OUTPUT AND BRAKE LIGHT SWITCHES
There are two small switches located at the front of the unit, next to the port on the module. Once accessed, the switch positions can be changed using a small pointed tool.
In the illustration above, the switch on the right (#2) controls the level of output available to the trailer brakes when using the manual control. The factory default setting is the ‘ON’ position with the switch down. This set ting limits the manual control output to the level set using the output control. Moving this switch up to the ‘OFF’ position allows 100% of the output to the brakes when the manual control is actuated regardless of the output control setting.
The switch on the left (#1) controls the unit’s brake light activation feature. The factory default setting is the ‘ON’ position with the switch down. This setting activates the tow vehicle and trailer brake lights when the manual control is actuated. Moving the switch up to the ‘OFF’ position turns off the brake light activation feature and the brake lights are not activated when the manual control is actuated.
SETUP wiwitan
Once all electrical connections are complete, plug the trailer’s electrical connector into the tow vehicle’s plug while parked on a level surface. Connecting the trailer initiates the mounting position calibration mode. A green LED in ramp-up sequence will be seen on the LED display. To recalibrate, unplug and re-plug in the trailer’s electrical connector. Make the following preliminary adjustments with the trailer connected and engine running to ensure proper charge voltage. Kendaraan kudu ing parkir utawa netral kanthi rem parkir diterapake, mlaku saka pedal rem, lan ora ana aktuasi kontrol manual.
Adjust the output by pressing the rotar y knob until the brake control is in the output control mode. Green-red LEDs will appear on the display. Rotate the knob clockwise or counter-clockwise as needed to set output control. Adjust the sensitivity by pressing the rotary knob until the brake control is in the sensitivity control mode. Blue-red LEDs will appear on the LED display. Rotate the knob clockwise or counter-clockwise as needed to set the sensitivity control.
DRIVE TEST & ADJUSTMENT
