ED-XDisplay Installation
Decide on a location.
Allow adequate clearance behind the unit for the cable connection to ensure the cable is not
unduly stressed.
Ensure that there is sufcient length of cable to remove unit for servicing purposes.
Using the supplied template as a guide, cut out the hole for the back and drill four 4.3 mm (0.170”)
holes for the studs.
Screw the four M4 studs into the rear of the unit.
Connect the cable into the rear of the unit.

Power On Screen
This power on screen will be shown when power is rst applied to the unit. The display will
perform a self-test for proper operation of the datalink, ash, RAM and LCD. A progress
bar gives a general indication of how far the self-test has progressed. The display also
indicates the current user for whom the display is congured.

Initial Setup
On initial power up the display will automatically enter screens within the Settings and
Config Menus which need to be set up by the user in order to use the display. Once these
are set on the initial power-up, it is not necessary to repeat these steps. If the initial settings
have been set incorrectly, the setup screens can be corrected via the Configuration Menu
(see Configuration Menu section).
The user is first prompted to select the engine
model to which the display is connected.
Use up/down scroll keys (Key 1 or Key 2)
to move the pointer to the desired engine
model. Press the SELECT key (Key 4) to
fill in the box in the right hand column
adjacent to the desired model, then press
the BACK key (Key 5).
Key 1 Key 2 Key 3 Key 4 Key 5
Use the up/down scroll keys (keys 1 and 2)
to move the pointer to the data type item
followed by the ADJ key (key 4) to select
between J1939 and J1587 Data type.
The display then enters the Data-link
screen and the user should select Data
type, either J1587 or J1939.
Default Screen (BASIC PAGE)
The BASIC PAGE is displayed after the power on screen is finished testing the functionality
of the unit. The “SYSTEM OK” banner is displayed for the first 60 seconds, then turned
off. The “ACTIVE FAULT PRESENT” banner is only displayed if certain ECM (Engine Control
Module) fault codes are active. The Electronic Display does NOT show all possible ECM fault
codes at this time.
If no keys are pressed within 5 seconds, the
button bar will slide down out of view and
reveal engine feature switches that are
turned on (if this feature is supported by the
installation). Pressing keys 1 to 4 will restore the menu
button bar to the screen, whereas pressing
key 5 will allow the user to set lighting and
contrast values (see Lighting and Contrast
section).

APPENDIX
Electronic Display Connections
When using SAEJ1708/ J1587 communication protocol the display requires four wires to
operate: two for power and two for the SAE J1587 databus. Pin assignments are shown
below.
When using SAEJ1939 communication protocol, again the display requires four wires to
operate: two for power and two for the J1939 databus. However the SAEJ1939 databus
connections are different to those of the SAEJ1587 databus. Pin assignments are shown
below:
Vehicle speed input from a GPS or speed transducer can be input to the display.
Note that pin 11 of the connector can be
used to drive an external alarm. To do
this, wire a switched +12 volt supply wire
to one side of the alarm, and the other to
pin 11 of the connector from the display.
The external alarm will activate whenever
the display alarm bleeps.
