GIpro X-type Install Guide for GPX-WSS Harness Kit Compatibility: This universal harness kit includes a Wheel Speed Sensor and will fit all motorcycles and vehicles which have electronic ignition system. Please check our application list to see if we have a specific Harness Kit available for your motorcycle. 1. Overview You need to mount the supplied wheel speed sensor and connect 3 wires to the bike s wiring harness. Good quality quick connectors are supplied (3 pcs wire taps). No need to cut any wires and no need for soldering. A universal mounting bracket for the sensor is included. If it s not suitable for your bike, the bracket can be made from a metal piece (about 2mm thick steel is recommended). Due to the large number of bike models and vehicles compatible with this Kit, model specific wire colors and install instructions are not described in this document. To complete the install, it is recommended that you consult with your dealer and/or refer to the Service Manual available for your bike. 2. Installation Disclaimer: Do not attempt to install the product if you don t have basic mechanical and electrical skills. HealTech Electronics Ltd. and its distributors shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by improper installation. If in doubt, please consult with your dealer. 1. The ignition key should be in OFF position. Remove the seat, raise and support the fuel tank. 2. Connect the GIpro Black wire to a Ground lead near the instrument cluster, e.g. to the ground lead of the parking light or dashboard light. Use the Red wire tap connector supplied. Usage: Place the unstripped run wire (ground lead) inside the run channel. Close the side cover until latched. Cut off the excess length, then insert the unstripped tap wire (Black) completely and check its position. Insert the blade (u-contact) and press down by finger pressure. Then, fully depress the u-contact with pliers. Close the hinged top cover until latched. Alternatively, connect the GIpro Black wire to chassis ground.

3. Connect the GIpro Red wire to a switched +12V power lead, such as the hot wire of the parking light or dashboard light. Use the Red wire tap connector supplied. 4. Connect the 4-pole GIpro harness connector to the GIpro display connector. 5. Check whether the Power and Ground connections are correct: Test #1: Turn ignition On The GIpro display should count from 6 to 1, then L flashes slowly. (If not, the display is not receiving power and/or ground.) Turn ignition OFF. 6. Mount the wheel speed sensor so that it will read the bolt heads of the rear brake disc or the bolt heads of the rear wheel sprocket. If rear wheel mount is not possible, you can also install the sensor at the front wheel. Any rotating metal targets will work, but the targets (e.g. bolt heads) must be spaced at equal distances. See mounting examples at the back of this page. Adjust and tighten the sensor so that the tip of the sensor will be in-line with the center of the bolt head. The air-gap should be about 1mm. 7. Connect the 3-pole sensor connector to the GPX wiring harness connector. Test #2: Turn ignition On, then Rotate the wheel at least 5 km/h (3 mph) The GIpro display should indicate a rolling wheel. (If not, the display is not receiving the speed signal. Check the connector pins and adjust the sensor distance. Rotate the sensor body by 45 degrees.) 8. Connect the GIpro Black/Green wire to any of the following options, using the Red wire tap connector supplied: a) The signal wire of the crankshaft sensor (also called Pickup coil or Ignition Pulse Generator). The Crankshaft sensor is inside the crankcase, usually near the Alternator. It has two wires. b) The tacho signal (rpm counter) wire, anywhere between the dashboard connector and the ECU box. c) The ignition coil signal wire, anywhere between the ignition control unit and the coil input terminal. Test #3: Start the engine L should flash faster for a few seconds. (If not, the display is not receiving the RPM signal.) 9. Peel off the green plastic from the back of the unit, and mount the display. 10. Neatly route the cables preferably along the frame. Use the supplied cable ties. Do not bend the harness near the 4-pole connectors. Do not route the harness very close to the exhaust pipe or cylinder head. Make sure the sensor cable is secured properly and kept away from moving parts. 11. Use black tape to secure and isolate the 4-pole connectors. 12. If all tests work fine, refer to the User s Guide for setup instructions. - 2

GIpro X-type Gear Position Indicator with programmable Shift Light and High Speed Warning User s Guide 1. Foreword Congratulations on your purchase of a GIpro X-type gear position indicator. The GIpro products from HealTech Electronics Ltd. are the most advanced gear position indicators on the market today. This GIpro model will fit all motorcycles and vehicles which have an electronic speedometer (either analogue or digital readout). Your speedometer is electronic if the odo/tripmeter has LCD readout. If your speedometer is cable driven, it is still possible to install this product with our GPX-WSS harness kit. Due to a modern microprocessor and sophisticated firmware, the GIpro-X offers faster and more reliable readings than competing products. The unit is also the smallest, most compact gear indicator available, making it easy to mount at the instrument cluster. The display is auto-learning, there are no buttons and no programming wire. 2. Operation Your motorcycle is not equipped with a Gear Position Sensor, therefore determining and displaying the gear in use is only possible when the engine is running and the clutch is fully released. At other times (clutch pulled-in, engine not running, bike stopped) the display will show a - sign. The GIpro will NOT show an incorrect gear in any circumstances, except for a split second when the clutch is released slowly (slipping) during a back shift. 3. Installation The Harness Kit required for the installation is supplied separately. Along with the Display unit, please make sure to order the correct wiring harness kit for your bike. Please refer to the install instructions received with the Harness Kit. GPX_UsersGuide_en.pdf [rev. 002] - 1 - http://www.gi-pro.net
4. Setup You need to set up this module after installation. It is recommended to perform the setup procedure with WARM engine. - Raise the rear wheel off the ground by using a stand. (If you do not have a stand, or your speedometer is driven off the front wheel, set up the unit while riding. Find a long, straight road with light traffic. The unit does not learn the same gear twice, this makes it easy to set up on the road. You can even shift down and stop during the setup if needed. Do not stare at the display, watch the road and ride with extreme care as always!) - Turn the ignition On. The display counts backwards ( 6 to 1 ) indicating that the memory is clear. (If the display counts upwards when ignition is turned on, the memory is not clear. Perform the Reset procedure if you wish to set it up again.) - The display flashes L (Learning) slowly. Start the engine in Neutral, and let it idle. The display flashes faster for a few seconds while the RPM signal is being received correctly. - The display flashes 1 slowly. At this point, wait until the RPM drops to the normal idle speed. Select 1st gear, release the clutch and keep the engine at approx. 2-4 times of your idle speed (usually 2000-4000 RPM). The display flashes faster while the SPEED signal is being received correctly. The unit is now learning the gear position. Depending on the bike model, the learning may take from a few seconds up to a minute. - The display shows n (next) for a second, then 2 flashes slowly. Select 2nd gear, release the clutch and raise RPM. Again, the display flashes faster while learning the gear position. Repeat this process until all gears have been programmed (5 or 6). - In top gear, wait until o (over) is indicated and the display stops flashing. (If your bike has 6 gears, you will need to select 6th gear when prompted, otherwise the unit will exit from programming mode in 5 seconds and you will need to repeat the setup procedure.) The unit is now programmed and should indicate all gears correctly. Now, when ignition is turned on, the display counts forward ( 1 to 5 or 1 to 6 ) indicating that it is programmed and fully functional. Note 1: If you have a SpeedoHealer (or other speedometer calibrator) and you change the calibration factor, probably you will have to reset the GIpro and perform the setup procedure again. Note 2: The unit stores all settings in Flash memory, there is no need to set it up again if you disconnect or remove the battery. - 2 -
5. Reset If some gears are not indicated correctly, reset the unit and set it up again. - Have the engine stop switch in OFF position. - Turn the ignition key ON and immediately turn it off while the GIpro display is counting up and is showing 3, 4 or 5. Repeat this step 5 more times. - On the next power up, the display will count backwards ( 6 to 1 ). The memory is now cleared and you can perform the Setup procedure. Note: If you perform the Reset procedure, it will set the device to factory default condition. The Shift Light and High Speed Warning features will also be cleared. 6. Shift Light If you wish, you can program the device to indicate when the desired RPM is reached. The unit will rapidly flash a U (Up) once you exceed the pre-set RPM. The feature is intelligent, as it does not operate in top gear. To activate the feature: - First, perform the deactivation steps as per chapter 8. - When C (Clear) is flashing, raise the RPM very slowly. - The display will begin flashing a U sign, indicating that the Shift Light learning is in progress. The unit learns the highest RPM. - Raise the RPM gradually and very slowly to the desired RPM, and hold it for a second. Release the throttle. - When done, you can save the setting and exit from the learning mode in three ways: start riding, stop the engine or turn ignition off. 7. High Speed Warning If you wish, you can program the device to warn you when your speed exceeds a set limit. The unit flashes the actual gear 1 to 5/6 above the pre-set speed limit. This way you can still see the gear position. To activate the feature: - First, perform the deactivation steps as per chapter 8. - When C (Clear) is flashing, select first gear and start riding. - The display will be flashing an H sign, indicating that the HSW learning is in progress. The unit learns the highest SPEED. - 3
- Select a high gear and raise your speed gradually and slowly to the desired speed. Hold it for a second, then slow down and stop. (You should of course slow down and stop as traffic conditions dictate. The unit will not exit from learning mode until you stop the engine. It records the highest speed as long as H is flashing on the display.) - When done, you can save the setting and exit from learning mode two ways: stop the engine or turn ignition off. 8. Deactivating the SL and HSW features If you wish to deactivate or re-program the Shift Light or High Speed Warning features, perform the following steps: - Park the bike and turn ignition On (if it is already on, cycle the ignition key). - Start the engine in neutral, and warm the engine if necessary. (Do not move the bike, otherwise you will need to restart the sequence.) - Gradually and very slowly increase the RPM, and keep it in the range 3-4 times of your idle speed (usually 3000-4000 RPM). As a guide, the display will show a (top horizontal bar) sign when you keep the RPM in this range. - Hold the RPM for about 5 seconds, until C (Clear) is flashing on the display. - Now, if you wish to deactivate both features, stop the engine or turn the ignition Off. Otherwise, continue with chapter 6 or 7. Note: you can not activate and use both features at the same time. If you program one, it will clear the previous setting. 9.
