wear or any other factor that may affect the accuracy of your vehicle’s speedometer. It is important to note<br />

that this adjustment only affects the ScanGauge’s indicated speed and distances, and it does not affect<br />

the vehicle speedometer or odometer readings.<br />

While viewing the SPEED Screen, the lower left and right function buttons can be used to increase or<br />

decrease the selected adjustment in 1% steps.<br />

The upper line displays the word SPEED and a percentage. The percentage is the adjustment factor. The<br />

lower line displays 2 numbers: the left number is the speed reported by the vehicle and the number on the<br />

right is the speed that will be shown by the ScanGauge after applying the correction factor.<br />

One accurate way to set the speed is to use a GPS. With one person driving, the other person observes<br />

the speed on the GPS and adjusts the percentage until the lower right number agrees with the speed the<br />

GPS indicates.<br />

IMPORTANT: OBSERVE ALL SPEED LIMITS AND DRIVE SAFELY WHILE MAKING<br />

THESE ADJUSTMENTS. THE DRIVER MUST NOT BE DISTRACTED BY TRYING TO<br />

MAKE THESE ADJUSTMENTS WHILE DRIVING.<br />

Set the Fuel Cutoff Level<br />

Some vehicles will turn the fuel injectors off while<br />

coasting – this is known as Fuel Cutoff. ScanGauge<br />

attempts to detect the fuel cutoff condition by<br />

comparing the open/closed loop indicator and the<br />

throttle position. If ScanGauge improperly detects fuel cutoff, then you may see fuel economy being<br />

reported as 9999 MPG or 0.00 LHK.<br />

The CUTOFF parameter allows you to set the point at which ScanGauge can determine the throttle is<br />

closed and in the fuel cutoff condition. The default value of 24 is usually correct for most vehicles but may<br />

need to be adjusted. This setting is not critical but is best at about 4 above the no-throttle TPS value. You<br />

can choose to disable the fuel cutoff sensing feature of the ScanGauge by setting the value of CUTOFF<br />

to 0.<br />

Set PID Method<br />

Use the PIDS menus to set the method ScanGauge<br />

uses to store Parameter Identifications Descriptors<br />

(PIDs) codes.<br />

Most vehicles use ALL, which is the factory default. But some vehicles will not work properly unless<br />

SUPPORTED is used. This is the case for 1995 to 1999 Subaru vehicles. If the ScanGauge connects but<br />

then goes to sleep after showing little or no data on the GAUGE display, change this to SUPPORTED.<br />
