12 Volt Systems:

If possible, install Vapor to a 12 volt system:

• The backlight will be 10 times

brighter.

• Vapor will enter sleep mode

after 20 minutes instead of 5.

• The shift and and temperature

indicator LED’s will be enabled.

OPTION 1) BATTERY WIRED:

Connect the power cables

directly to the vehicle’s 12 volt battery. A 1 Amp fuse (not provided) should be used between the power cable and positive battery terminal when connecting directly to a battery.

OPTION 2) SYSTEM TAP:

As an alternative to running wires all the way to the battery, it is

possible to tap into the electrical system. When tapping into the

electrical system, connect to a circuit protected by fuse. It is best to

connect so power is not interrupted by key switch.

Installation

ATV Sensor/Magnet Installation:

Vapor needs two things to be able to collect distance data:

1. A magnet placed on the

spinning part of the wheel.

2. The sensor, placed on the

non-moving part of the wheel.

The magnet spins around tripping the sensor switch each time--data collected lets Vapor calculate distance and time.

The magnet gets installed on the brake rotor because it spins with the wheel. Typically the provided magnetic bolt can simply replace a stock rotor bolt (see above picture). If that doesn’t work, there is

Magnetic Bolt Installation

ATV Rotor

a spare magnet that can be glued in a hole on the brake rotor. (JB Weld or a similar slow-cure epoxy works well.)

After the magnet is in, the sensor is placed on a nonspinning part the wheel.

C-Bracket Installation-ATV Left Axle

The sensor typically is placed on either the provided C-bracket or the ATV metal rotor shield.

Installation

Motorcycle Sensor/Magnet Installation:

Motorcycles, like ATV’s, need a magnet placed on the spinning part of the wheel and the sensor installed to a non-spinning part.

The magnet typically gets bolted or glued to the brake rotor.

The sensor wire should come from the back of the computer, be cable-tied to the brake line as it travels down the front forks, then attached to the brake caliper.

Optimum Magnet Rotation Path

Magnet About to Pass Under Sensor

Vapor can tell how far and fast it’s traveled by keeping track of how many times the magnet passes under the sensor switch.

Many Motorcycles and ATV’s have special installation procedures. Refer to the provided installation insert for specific instructions for your machine or visit www.TrailTech.net.

Installation

Overview:

You will use the wheel size number when setting up the computer for your machine. Use Method 1, 2 or 3.

Method 1) Easy Ruler Method:

Find the circumference of front wheel by measuring its diameter in millimeters. Multiply the Wheel Diameter by 3.14. The result is your wheel size.

Wheel Size=

Wheel Diameter(mm)

x 3.14

Diameter(mm)

x 3.14

Method 2) Rolling Measurements:

On a flat surface, mark the tire sidewall and the ground with a marking pen. Roll the wheel until the mark on the tire completes one revolution and is back on the ground. Mark the ground at this location. Measure the distance between the marks on the ground in mm. (multiply inches by 25.4 to convert to mm). Use this number for your wheel size. For accuracy, the rider’s weight should be on the bike when making this measurement.

Installation

Method 3) Distance Measurements:

For the most accurate measurement, use wheel size measurement from above or set the wheel size to 2110mm (motorcycle) or 1675 (ATV) and follow this procedure:

1. Find a length of road where the distance is known.

2. Ride the distance and note the distance the computer reads (for example, the road is known to be 5 miles and the computer shows

4.95 miles.)

3. Use the numbers to solve for X in the following equation:

2110 = 4.95 X 5.00 (new wheel size) (actual miles)

4. Enter number found from the above method in your computer.

(current wheel size)= (current miles)

4.95X = 2110 * 5.00

4.95X = 10550

10550

X =

4.95

X = 2131

Troubleshooting F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why does nothing work? The internal battery may be dead, or Vapor is not hooked up to vehicle power properly. Review installation procedure. Try the reset button on the back of Vapor. Don’t forget to write down your wheel size and other settings beforehand.

Why isn’t the RPM Graph working? The engine sensor may be installed incorrectly. Review installation procedure.

Everything is working, but the (K)MPH reading is way off! The wheel sensor/magnet may be installed incorrectly. Double check to make sure everything is set up right.

The wheel size setting may be incorrect. Please review wheel size measurement instructions in this manual.

Vapor is not displaying information correctly! If the wires on the back of Vapor become damaged, incorrect readings may be displayed. Be careful to avoid twisting, crimping, kinking or otherwise abusing the wires.

Troubleshooting

The screen melted! Did gasoline, degreasers, or other chemical cleaners come in contact with Vapor’s screen? Some chemicals can easily damage Vapor.

Why is the LCD Display slow, or even worse, black?! Vapor may have been exposed to too much direct sunlight while not riding or temperatures below 0°C. Try the reset button and get Vapor back to a normal temperature.

The Backlight won’t stay lit!!! Vapor needs to be connected to vehicle’s 12 volt system in order for the backlight to be continuous on. Review installation procedure.

Vapor resets when bike starts even when connected to power. To replace the battery, use a coin to unscrew the round panel on the back of Vapor. Remove the old battery and install the new one. Make sure the positive pole is facing up. Replace with common watch battery CR2032.

Why aren’t the LED’s working? Vapor needs to be connected to vehicle’s 12 volt system in order for the LED’s to function.

The temeperature LED’s require an optional engine temperature sensor to be installed correctly and must be set in Data Setting Mode correctly. They default to 0, in effect turned off.

The shift points must be set correctly in Data Setting Mode to function correctly. They default to 0, in effect turned off.
