Hello,
After the Type 1M was put aside a couple months ago, development continued on what is now simply the Type 1 Dash. I am posting this message to get your feedback about the idea before I release information on our website.
The Type 1 Dash is a data display system that offers you the following parameters:
-Odometer
-Speedometer
-Oil pressure
-CHT
-EGT
-Coolant temp
RPM is displayed as a numerical value, and as a graphical band. When the system is turned on, an introduction screen is displayed for 5 seconds before initializing the dislay. The display is a touch screen. In the bottom of the introduction page, there is a setup button which, when pressed, takes you to the setup page. The setup page allows you to turn on/off the display of CHT, EGT, and Coolant temp. It also allows you to set the warning light points for each parameter. The tire circumference can also be set. After the settings are adjusted, clicking on "Done" will save the settings and initialize the display to these settings. Even with the battery removed, the Type 1 Dash will remember your settings. When the system is turned on and you don't need to adjust the settings, just wait 5 sec. and the system will initialize the display to the currently saved settings.
The display screen is 81mm x 62mm and mounted in a nicely styled enclosure that measures 5.5" wide x 4.0" high x 1.375" thick. It looks really good on a MOMO model 12/c which is a pretty small wheel.
The display unit has two buttons, one for clearing the recall memory, and another for displaying the max. memory of the parameters. There is a over-rev warning light at the upper right corner, and a warning light for all other parameter at the upper left corner.
The Type 1 Dash is a high quality system that offers features from gold plated connectors, to 12-bit data resolution. The estimate price of the Type 1 Dash is $650 complete.
What are your comments/suggestions/questions?
Thank you,
Alex Kalempa
