C HAPTER 1
The torque cell along with Dynojet Power Core software provides the technician with
the ability to control vehicle RPM or speed at any throttle opening. Through our
exclusive closed-loop software design, the vehicle is automatically held at your predetermined setting. Use the torque cell and Power Core software to measure re al-time
torque, and perform sweep, step and custom load simulation tests.
This document provides instructions for installing the torque cell on a Dynojet
Model 250i/250iP DynoWare RT Motorcycle Dynamometer (dyno) and calibrating
the torque cell using Power Core software. To ensure safety and accuracy in the
procedures, perform the procedures as they are described.

This section describes how to connect and disconnect the power to both the above
ground and in ground dyno.
CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING THE POWER—ABOVE GROUND DYNO
Use the following steps to connect and disconnect power to the above ground dyno.
Always turn the power off when connecting and disconnecting cables.
1 Use the main breaker to turn power on and off to the dyno.
The main breaker is located inside the CPI door. When the handle is in the down
position all power into the dyno is turned off.
2 Disconnect the power plug to ensure all power has been removed from the dyno
before performing certain installation procedures.
Components attached to and within the dynamometer operate with
potentially lethal voltages. The power cord must be disconnected from the
power source before servicing electrical components or wiring.

Use the following steps to connect and disconnect power to the in ground dyno.
Always turn the power off when connecting and disconnecting cables.
1 Use the main breaker to turn power on and off to the dyno.
The main breaker is located inside the CPI door. When the handle is in the down
position all power into the dyno is turned off.
2 Disconnect the power plug to ensure all power has been removed from the dyno
before installing the DynoWare RT electronics.
Components attached to and within the dynamometer operate with
potentially lethal voltages. The power cord must be disconnected from the
power source before servicing electrical components or wiring.

Installing the load cell requires access to the dyno and eddy current brake. This
section will walk you through accessing both the above ground and in ground dyno.
Make sure you have disconnected the power to the dyno before removing the covers.
Refer to “Main Dyno Power” on page 1-3.
ACCESSING THE DYNO—ABOVE GROUND
You will need to remove the tire carriage, center panel, and eddy current brake top
cover in order to route the load cell cable to the eddy current brake driver.
1 Remove the four screws securing the bearing bracket to the tire carriage and set
aside.
2 Using the hand wheel, or the power carriage, unscrew the bearing brac ket and the
carriage screw and set aside.
3 Remove the tire carriage by sliding the carriage under the carriage clamps toward
the back of the dyno and set aside.
