EXAMPLE ACCESSORY WIRING CONFIGURATIONS
Since the unit has the capability of controlling any 12V electronic device you want,
possibilities are pretty much endless. Below are a few examples of the many things you
can control. All the necessary software configurations for the accessory examples below
are included with the SOFTDASH software interface. You can also make your own custom
configurations for custom accessory controls (refer to the software manual).
5.1 REMOTE START ACCESSORY CONFIGURATION
The MFC can be used as a stand alone Remote Start or can also be used to activate an
external remote starter unit. By using ACC (1-4) and setting the Black/Red Input wire
to positive you can wire into the vehicles Ignition Harness to Remote start your car.
Making the right connections is important and should be done by a professional or a
person who has a good understanding of the vehicle electrical system that they are
working on. The recommended remote start configuration utilizes tachometer as well
as timed remote start. The tachometer timing/calibration is the basis of the ignition
crank, and the pulsed time out serves as the maximum possible crank time limit.
