AiM Throttle Rotative Potentiometer

Description

AiM Throttle Rotative Potentiometer

The sensor measures rotational displacements between a fixed point, a “reference point”, and a movable one.

AiM Throttle Rotative Potentiometer

The sensor measures rotational displacements between a fixed point, a “reference point”, and a movable one.

The first installation step consists of fixing the potentiometer to the chassis using two M3 screws or a self-made iron bracket. Once the sensor mounted on your vehicle, you can connect the rotating cursor to the throttle or the pedal or other moving elements.

Ensure that the throttle is in its “zero position” (i.e. when the throttle is not pressed), the potentiometer is in its “zero position”, too. When the throttle is thoroughly pressed, the potentiometer is in its “high” position.

This instrument’s mechanical measure range goes up to 130°, while the electrical measure range goes up to 106°. Please, do not exceed the instrument maximum measure range. If you need to measure more significant displacements, please use a different sensor: incorrect use may seriously damage the sensor.

Connections

MXS / MXP / MXG / MXL (Strada and Pista) / MXL2 / EVO5 / MXm etc harnesses are fitted with 719 connections. To extend the length between your dash display/logger and the analogue sensor, please use the 719 - 719 patch lead, which is available in various lengths from 0.5 - 3 metres. For most installations, you will need one of these leads.

EVO4 / EVO4S logger / Channel Expansion are fitted with 712 connections and require a 712 - 719 patch lead to connect these sensors.
