Thank you for purchasing a Dynojet Data Link Module - HD Delphi ECM. The Dynojet Data Link Module (DJ-DLM) allows data, such as spark advance (front and rear cylinder), throttle position, head temperature, inlet air temperature, commanded AFR, and numerous other parameters to be transmitted from the motorcycle’s Electronic Control Unit (ECU) via the motorcycle’s data port. The WinPEP 7 software lets you easily view, save, and compare this data using just a few mouse clicks.
The DJ-DLM is great for PCM tuning and maintaining consistency while dyno testing. No need to guess if the bike is too hot, or perhaps if the ECU is retarding timing. You can even show this information right along side your dyno results using the WinPEP 7 software.
Dynojet Research is known for its ultra consistent and repeatable line of chassis dynos, and now with the DJ-DLM you can gather data directly from the bike being tested to achieve even greater consistency. This innovation is just another example of the professional results you gain using Dynojet products.

WinPEP 7 software can be used in two ways:
• To gather, view and print data from expansion systems such as the DJ-DLM, or from saved dyno results.
• To collect data from the dyno electronics, calibration data, and user notes to calculate engine power and torque based on the specific drum mass of a dynojet dynamometer. WinPEP 7 has many sophisticated features for graphing this and other data.
You can even show data from your DJ-DLM right along side your dyno results using WinPEP 7 software. Refer to your WinPEP User Guide for more information on installing and using the WinPEP 7 software.

ESTABLISHING A CONNECTION

When you have connected your DJ-DLM properly, you will see the message, “Device Connected - ECU Communicating” displayed at the bottom of the dialog box as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Device is Connected and Communicating with the ECU
If the device is not connected to your computer, or is not communicating with the bike’s ECU, you will see an error message displayed at the bottom of the dialog box.

TROUBLESHOOTING CONNECTION ERRORS
If you do not see the Device Connected - Communicating with the ECU, check to see that you are not experiencing one of the following problems:
Problem TRY THIS THEN THIS
Device Not Connected
Error Communicating with ECU
If you still cannot establish connection between your DJ-DLM so that it is communicating between the software and the bike’s ECU, call Dynojet Technical Support at 1-800-992-3525 for personal assistance.
Verify that USB cable is plugged into computer and is making connection.
Verify that bike power is turned on and if there is a ready to start switch it is turned on. If necessary start the bike.
Verify the DJ-DLM is plugged into the bike’s data port. This occasionally may appear to “snap” into place, but may not be making connection.
Recheck the plug end to the bike’s data port. This occasionally may appear to “snap” into place, but may not be making connection.

USING THE DJ-DLM WITH WINPEP 7
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Features within WinPEP 7 may now use data channels available from the DJ-DLM.
CONFIGURING THE MAKERUN SCREEN
The gauges displayed on the MakeRun screen are completely configurable. Editing a gauge allows live data from the DJ-DLM to be displayed on the MakeRun screen. Any data from the DJ-DLM will always be recorded when you sample a run. Dynojet recommends displaying live gauges on the MakeRun screen to help verify data is streaming from the DJ-DLM to WinPEP 7.
For more detailed information on gauges, refer to your WinPEP User Guide.
1Click the Edit Mode button. You cannot edit gauges unless you are in Edit Mode.
The gauge toolbar will appear.
2 Choose the style of gauge you would like. 3 Click and drag, holding the mouse button down as you do so, on the MakeRun
screen until the dotted box is the desired size. Release the mouse and the gauge will appear.
4 Edit the gauge properties.
Each type of gauge has a slightly different dialog box, but most share the same properties. Most channels available are standard channels, but the channels that are listed with an asterisk are from peripheral devices (Expansion Systems).
4a Right click on the gauge and choose Gauge Properties.
The Gauge Property Editor dialog box will appear.
4b Select a Data Channel from the drop down list.
The Prefix *H_ indicates data channels that are available from the DJ-DLM. Other expansion systems have an asterisk (*) in front of the channel name. Data channels without an asterisk (*) in front of their names are information from your dyno.
Data Channel determines which channel the gauge is linked to (such as the DJ­DLM). The data channels that you selected when you configured your DJ-DLM are the ones that are available. If you do not see a data channel that you think should be shown, make sure that you had its check box selected when you configured your device as shown on page -10. Some types of gauges automatically place the name of the Data Channel selected on the gauge. Digital gauges do not display the name and will require you to add a label.
Note: You must be connected to the dyno electronics for the list of channels to be available.
