  • Warm-up mode is equipped to guard engine.
  • Opening and ending mode can be selected from 2 variations.
  • Self-diagnosis system detects a disconnection of wire, short circuit and communication error, and indicates the error condition.
  • Warning value can be set. The display is highlighted and buzzer sounds during warning. (The buzzer can be set ON/OFF.)
  • Data obtained during driving (including peak value and warning value) can be stored up to 3 minutes, and the data can be replayed after driving.
  • When both fuel pressure sensor and turbo sensor installed, differential pressure can be displayed.
  • Display pattern can be selected from 4 display modes. (Maximum 6 items can be displayed all together on one GAUGE display.)
  • The display items and the layout can be changed.
  • Equipped with sequential indicator with 8 LEDs.
  • Equipped with clock and alarm functions.
  • Equipped with odometer and trip meter
  • Oil, water, and exhaust temperatures can be displayed from 0 deg C (32 deg F).
  • Graphic animation plays during idling (Special mode).

  • To display OP1 through OP5 in Display range, the sensor sets OP1 through OP5 need to be purchased separately. (Ex. To display Oil pressure, AD Oil pressure sensor set OP1 needs to be purchased separately.) However, the ADVANCE CR or the ADVANCE BF is already installed, the sensor set is not necessary to be purchased separately.
  • ADVANCE ZD cannot display turbo or intake manifold pressure.

Operation and display

Display item change

There are 4 display modes. (STREET, GAUGE1, GAUGE2 and TIME ATTACK)
The default is STREET display mode which displays clock, water temperature, speed, odometer, and tripmeter. The display modes can be changed through one push. The item displayed on screen are also changeable.

Default display for each display mode

On GAUGE display modes, up to 6 items can be displayed.
The layout and displayable items differ by each display mode.

Opening and ending modes

When the ignition is turned on, ZD performs opening mode. When the ignition is turned off, ZD performs ending mode and then the power supplies to the unit and ZD are shut off. Opening and ending modes can be selected from A and B types by sliding the dip switch 2 on the ADVANCE Control unit.

Brightness adjustment

A dimmer sensor is equipped and the brightness can be adjusted automatically. AUTO or MANUAL mode can be selected.

By connecting ZD to the ADVANCE System, the brightness of ADVANCE BF and ADVANCE CR is also controlled automatically.

Real mode

The real-time vehicle condition is displayed during real mode.

During real mode,

  • Warning display
  • Differential pressure display
  • Warm-up display
  • Special display(Idling display)
  • Clocking 0-100km/h, 0-200km/h

Real peak mode, real peak reset mode

The peak values recorded while driving and idling are displayed during real mode. Minimum values are displayed for oil pressure and fuel pressure. The peak values can be reset.

Record mode, rec peak mode

Driving data can be recorded up to 3 minutes. The peak values recorded while recording are displayed during record mode. Minimum values are displayed for oil pressure and fuel pressure.

Playback mode, play peak mode

Recorded data is replayed. Pausing, fast- forwarding, rewinding, single frame forwarding, and single frame rewinding for data are possible. The peak values recorded while recording are displayed during playback mode. Minimum values are displayed for oil pressure and fuel pressure.

Warning setup mode

Optional warning values can be set. While a value exceeds the warning setting, the zone that the warning item is displayed is highlighted. While warnings are displayed, buzzer sounds if the buzzer sounds is set on. If ADVANCE Indicator (sold separately) is connected to ZD and the warning
output is on, the ADVANCE Indicator lights up while the item that the output is on is under condition of warning.

Error display

When the sensor wiring is disconnected or short-circuit, the item zone is highlighted and OPEN or SHORT is displayed.

Sequential indicator

8 LEDs (red) light up or blink depending on the engine revolutions. The lighting pattern can be selected from [SINGLE] and [DUAL]. The lighting pattern and step is set in display setup mode.

Alarm function

If the alarm is set, buzzer sounds and sequential indicator blinks at the setting time. Buzzer sounds for a minute. Sequential indicator (all the LEDs) blinks at the same time.
