Disclaimers

Dynojet Research, Inc. (Dynojet) makes no representation or warranties with respect to the contents

hereof and specifically disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability for any particular purpose.

Dynojet reserves the right to revise this publication and to make changes from time to time in the

content hereof without obligation of Dynojet to notify any person of such revision or changes.

Dynojet is not responsible for false operation due to unexpected dynamometer operation such as may

be caused by static, software bugs, hardware failure, etc.

Dynojet is not responsible for damage resulting from improper installation of the dynamometer or

from improper service rendered to the dynamometer. Dynojet is not responsible for damage incurred

due to alteration of the dynamometer or components, use of unapproved parts, or abuse to the

dynamometer.

Do not connect or disconnect cables or components on the dynamometer with the power on.

Always wear protective clothing, ear protection, and eye protection (goggles, safety glasses) when using

and servicing the dynamometer.

CAUTION

Equipment Power Requirements

The dynamometer has specific power requirements. Connecting the dynamometer to the incorrect

voltage will void the dynamometer warranty. Installation may require a licensed electrician.

Potentially Lethal Voltages

Components attached to and within the dynamometer operate with potentially lethal voltages. To

provide the greatest assurance of safety, the AC power cord(s) must be disconnected from the power

source before servicing electrical components or wiring. Disconnect all power cords before servicing

electrical components for the greatest assurance of safety.

DynoWare RT Upgrade for Model 424x Dynamometers Installation Guide

WARNINGS

Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

Electrostatic Discharge

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), or static shock, can damage electronic components within the

dynamometer. The damage may occur at the time of an ESD occurrence, or the shock may degrade the

component, resulting in a premature component failure later. To avoid ESD damage, always practice

good ESD control precautions when servicing the dynamometer. Dynojet designs its dynamometers

to be very tolerant of static shocks by the users, but the electronics are vulnerable when the electronics

are exposed. ESD occurs as a result of a difference of potential between two objects when the two objects

touch. Damage occurs as a result of the energy released when the discharge (touch) occurs. The

difference of potential can accumulate by as simple an action as a user moving across carpet or a seat.

If that person’s energy is discharged directly to the electronics, the electronics can be damaged.

Precautions

To protect against ESD damage, you must eliminate the difference of potential before the electronics

are handled. Touch the chassis of the dynamometer before touching any of the electronics. By touching

the chassis, you discharge any static shocks to the chassis instead of to the electronics.

If you are holding a circuit board or dynamometer component in your hand when you approach the

machine, touch the chassis of the dynamometer with your hand before installing the circuit board or

component.

When handling a circuit board or component to someone, touch that person with your hand first, then

hand them the component.

Always carry circuit boards in anti-static bags when the boards are exposed (removed from the

dynamometer).

CAUTION

Battery Fire and Explosion Hazards

There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or

equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

Automotive Batteries

In operation, batteries generate and release flammable hydrogen gas. They must always be assumed

to contain this gas which, if ignited by a burning cigarette, naked flame or spark, may cause battery

explosion with dispersion of casing fragments and corrosive liquid electrolyte. Carefully follow

manufacturer's instructions for installation and service. Keep away all sources of gas ignition and do

not allow metallic articles to simultaneously contact the negative and positive terminals of a battery.

Do not allow the positive and negative terminals to short-circuit. The dynamometer chassis is tied to

the negative side of the battery. Do not short between the positive battery terminal or the starter

connections to the chassis. In addition, make sure metal tools such as screw drivers, wrenches, and

torque wrenches do not come in contact with the negative and positive terminals of the battery. Short

circuiting the terminals of the battery can cause burn injuries, damage to the dynamometer, or trigger

explosions.

Charging

Batteries being charged will generate and release flammable hydrogen gas. Charging space should be

ventilated. Keep battery vent caps in position. Prohibit smoking and avoid creation of flames and sparks

nearby.

Wear protective clothing, eye and face protection, when charging or handling batteries.

Version 5 DynoWare RT Upgrade for Model 424x Dynamometers Installation Guide

WARNINGS

CAUTION

Grounding Requirements

Always ground the vehicle to the dynamometer. Never operate the dynamometer without properly

grounding the vehicle to the dynamometer.

Other Potential Hazards

The AC power outlet shall be installed near the equipment and it shall be easily accessible to allow for

disconnect before service.

The dynamometer should be located in a well ventilated area. There is a carbon monoxide hazard with

all internal combustion engines. Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Breathing

it could cause death.

Any dynamometer room design must incorporate sufficient exhaust extraction.

Always wear proper ear and eye protection when operating the dynamometer.

Never operate the dynamometer with the covers removed.

Never stand behind the dynamometer when in operation.

Never operate the dynamometer when there is excessive vibration or noise. Resolve these problems

before proceeding.

Never fuel the vehicle on the dynamometer unless appropriate safety measures are taken.

Verify brake operation before beginning any dynamometer testing.

Verify the vehicle is properly secured to the dynamometer.

Verify the vehicle is properly grounded to the dynamometer.

Never operate the blowers without the guards installed.

Exercise care with any dynamometer testing; portions of the dynamometer and vehicle may become

hot.

As with any equipment using electricity and having moving parts, there are potential hazards. To use

this dynamometer safely, the operator should become familiar with the instructions for operation of

the dynamometer and always exercise care when using it.

Do not repair or replace any part of the dynamometer or attempt any servicing unless specifically

recommended in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry

out.

NETWORK CONNECTIONS

The Dynojet DynoWare RT dyno electronics connects to your computer directly or

over a Local Area Network. If you have an existing network, connect the DynoWare RT

main module to a router or a network switch on your network. If you don't have an

existing network, you can create a network for the DynoWare RT by connecting the

main module to a router.

There are some advantages to connecting the DynoWare RT to a network, particularly

a wireless network. With DynoWare RT on a network, a single dedicated computer for

the dyno is no longer required. Any computer on the network can connect and operate

the dyno. A wireless connection allows you to control the dyno from inside the vehicle

without a cable running to the DynoWare RT main module.

Note: The DynoWare RT allows only one computer at a time to connect.

When the DynoWare RT main module is on a network connected to the internet,

automatic updates for both the DynoWare RT and software are possible.
