INPUT ACCESSORY GUIDE
Map - The PCV has the ability to hold 2 different
base maps. You can switch on the fly
between these two base maps when you hook
up a switch to the MAP inputs. You can use
any open/close type switch. The polarity of
the wires is not important. When using the
Autotune kit one position will hold a base map
and the other position will let you activate the
learning mode. When the switch is “CLOSED”
Autotune will be activated.
Shifter- These inputs are for use with the Dynojet
quickshifter. Insert the wires from the Dynojet
quickshifter into the SHIFTER inputs. The
polarity of the wires is not important.
Speed- If your application has a speed sensor then
you can tap into the signal side of the sensor
and run a wire into this input. This will allow
you to calculate gear position in the Control
Center Software. Once gear position is setup
you can alter your map based on gear position
and setup gear dependent kill times when
using a quickshifter.
Analog- This input is for a 0-5v signal such as
engine temp, boost, etc. Once this input
is established you can alter your fuel curve
based on this input in the control center
software.
Crank- Do NOT connect anything to this port unless
instructed to do so by Dynojet. It is used to
transfer crank trigger data from one module to
another.
ACCESSORY INPUTS
Wire connections:
To input wires into the PCV first remove the rubber
plug on the backside of the unit and loosen the
screw for the corresponding input. Using a 22-24
gauge wire strip about 10mm from its end. Push the
wire into the hole of the PCV until is stops and then
tighten the screw. Make sure to reinstall the rubber
plug.
NOTE: If you tin the wires with solder it will make
inserting them easier.

1 Remove the main seat.
2 Lift the front of the fuel tank up and use something to keep it propped up.
3 Remove the inner fairing on the left hand side of the bike (Fig. A).
4 Lay the PCV near the battery and route the harness down the left side of the
bike. Route the harness underneath the battery bracket (Fig. B).
5 Attach the ground wire of the PCV to the negative side of the battery
6 Unplug the connectors from the throttle bodies to the main wiring harness
(Fig. C).
There is a GREEN 3 pin connector and a GREEN 4 pin connector to the inside of
the frame on the left side.

11 Install the PCV in the tail section using the supplied velcro if needed (Fig.G).
12 Locate the stock O2 sensor connection.
This is located under the fuel tank near the right hand side of the frame. It is a
BLACK 4 pin connector.
13 Unplug the stock O2 sensor from the main wiring harness (Fig. H).
14 Plug the Dynojet O2 optimizer in-line of the stock wiring harness and O2
sensor (Fig. J).
15 Using the supplied velcro attach the optimizer to the back side of the air box.
16 Reinstall fuel tank back into place and bodywork.
Speed input location - Top of engine case on left hand side. PINK wire on sensor
side - WHT/YELwire on ECU side.
Temperature input location - Temperature sensor is located on back of cylinder
near #3 throttle body. GRN/WHT wire to ECU. Pin #34 on small ECU
connector

Tuning Notes:
This bike uses a fly-by wire system, so conventional tuning can not be
performed for all RPM and throttle ranges.
The GREY wire from the PCV is attached to the throttle blade angle sensor of
the throttle bodies which is NOT directly correlated to the throttle grip position.
Because of this when setting the throttle position in the PCV software we
recommend on resetting only the closed position after the bike has completely
warmed up. Use the arrow key (<) next to CLOSED to perform this step and
then click OK. Do not try to set the OPEN position unless you are on a dyno
and above 11000rpm.
You will notice that in the maps there are not detailed values below 10500rpm
at 60-100%. This is because the throttle blades will not open more than 60%
below this RPM range no matter how much throttle input is given. Therefore
this area can not be tuned.
The O2 optimizer for this model controls the stock closed loop area. This area
is represented by the highlighted cells shown in Figure K. The optimizer is
designed to achieve a target AFR of 13.6:1. To use this optimizer you must
retain your stock O2 sensor.
It is not necessary to input values in the highlighted area. If using the Auto
tune system do NOT input values in this area in your Target AFR table.
The Optimizer will blink while the sensor is being heated up. The units are not
functioning until the light is lit up solid.
