Introduction

The Chrome “Lite/Plus/Pro” dash is true innovation and excellence in the field of aftermarket dashboards

for motorcycles. Combining a true color TFT display and an onboard processor, this system guarantees

total flexibility to the engineer and end user. As a result, the Chrome has been designed with a main screen

that is most suitable for its users, providing the correct spacing for each indicator. The use of a color screen

also makes it possible to immediately make visible some errors such as battery errors, fuel and oil levels

including the reserves. At the same time this technology allowed for intuitive menus with a large amount of

information. The TFT display chosen by I2M srl for the Chrome range of dashes was specifically to provide

improved visibility in direct light, treated with an anti-reflective coating it eliminates unpleasant side effects

of the sun. The Chrome “Plus/Pro” now also allow the user to select special screens and functions such as

an analogue tachometer.

In order to create the perfect combination of both display and alarm configuration, the Chrome has a total

of 12 configurable LED’s (4 configurable in RGB for the Plus/Pro Units) in order to choose the alarm

configuration that is most preferred, both linked to the RPM (the classic upper LED bar) or for example a

low tire temperature alarm were the black aluminum casing and a seven-segment gear indicator with self-

controlled brightness could complete the aesthetic side of this new dashboard.

The Chrome incorporates lap timing and data acquisition with easy to navigate menus with choosing 20

pre-determined race circuits (which can be modified with a simple import/export function). For each racing

circuit the unit can store up to 500 laps, each divided into 4 different sectors. The system can calculate and

show the user a data summary for each circuit such as; the circuit map, best lap time, the number of laps

completed and the ideal lap keeping the history for the previous sessions and those of the current day to

be able to view the progress of the current day quickly and efficiently. The unit in addition allows you to

view the circuit map directly on the display hence enabling the user to change the finish line position and

split times simply by moving the cursor along the circuit map.

The Chrome support GPS position and speed via an external 10Hz sensor, in addition it supports RPM

reading, front and/or rear wheel speed and has 8 analogue channels (10 on Plus/12 on Pro Unit’s) including

motorcycles equipped with CANBUS. The unit’s data acquisition allows the user to record up to 1GB of

data with sampling up to 100Hz per channel. A practical menu allows you to select the desired sessions,

sorted by race circuit and date. The user can delete or transfer them to a USB stick for PC analysis using

the Danas software, thus drastically reducing download times.

The system has two distinct configurations, BOX and RACE. Each configuration can be adjusted by the

user whether to display the tachometer, speed, temperature, both analog and digital channels, lap timing

and best-lap and ideal-lap time etc. Among the different options available it is also possible to display

nothing in a part/section of the display to reduce distractions whilst racing. If the system is in BOX mode, it

will automatically switch to RACE mode as soon as a set target is crossed and then return to BOX

configuration at the end of the session, this is done automatically.

Before Installation

Read the manual carefully prior starting any installation activities of the Chrome unit. A PDF copy of the

latest user manual can be downloaded from the i2m.it page.

Always install the Chrome unit inline with the installation requirements provided in this user manual.

CAUTION:

The Chrome unit is engineered and designed for race circuit use only, the unit is not approved for

street use. Certain motorcycles display their headlight and turn signal indicators on their OEM

dashboard, these functions will not be available, nor will it be accessible on the Chrome unit.

The Chrome unit is designed to utilize state of the art GPS technology to ensure lap timing and data

acquisition is accurate, therefore the GPS sensor must always have a good signal. It is recommended to

turn the ignition on at least 2-3 minutes prior to enable the Chrome unit to synchronize with the GPS

satellites. If the circuit is one of those in the Chrome circuit library, it will automatically adjust and recognize

the circuit therefore there will be no need to set this manually.

What’s Inside The Box

Once you unbox your Chrome you will find the following as a standard;

• Chrome Dashboard

• 10 Hz GPS receiver

• Standard wiring harness with GPS input connector, female USB output and sensor wiring

connector

• Electrical cable boot with clamp

• Wiring for lambda connection (with Plus and Pro only)

• Lambda O2 Sensor with connector (with Plus and Pro only)

• 2x TPMS sensors (with Pro only)

It is advisable to connect all signal cables (if there is no plug & play wiring harness for your motorcycle

make and model) by soldering and insulating connections.

Installation

Chrome “Lite/Plus/Pro”

The Chrome unit is supplied with a generic wiring harness allowing the user to connect to the supplied GPS

sensor, the motorcycle’s 12V battery and any main sensors the user may want to analyze. It is

recommended prior to starting installation that the motorcycle technician disconnect the following fuses;

• Headlight

• Brake light

• Turn signal indicators

Start with removing the OEM dash (unplug the OEM dash connector) and any fairings, covers, fuel tank (if

required) to provide enough space to route the Chrome wiring harness properly avoiding contact with the

engine case, exhaust or any areas where the harness might be damaged during operation.

Connect the supplied wiring harness to the motorcycle’s battery +/- terminals, do not remove the supplied

protection fuse at any time during the installation, nor shorten or modify any of the supplied wiring harness.

Once the battery is connected and the supplied wiring harness has been routed (cable tied), connect the

Chrome unit. Ensure that the female USB connector is stored in a dry place (this can be under the rider

seat or in the front fairing). Supplied is an electrical rubber boot, ensure once the installation is complete

that all the cables pass through the boot to the rear connectors of the Chrome unit, secure the boot with

the supplied strap and tape the wiring to the boot limiting water and moisture ingress.

Now connect the GPS sensor to the wiring loom supplied. Route the GPS sensor to the rear of the

motorcycle (the subframe). Depending on the motorcycle make and model there might be a need to drill a

small hole in the top part of the tail fairing to properly route and mount the GPS sensor. Secure the GPS

sensor to the top most rear part (this is to allow for better/uninterrupted GPS signal) of the tail fairing with

3M extra strong double-sided tape or equivalent (avoid any metal parts near the GPS sensor).

Note: USB flash drives must have only one partition, be formatted in either FAT32 or exFAT else the

Chrome unit will be unable to connect with the flash drive. For more information on deleting/creating

partitions and formatting drives please visit:

https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-format-a-flash-drive-to-fat32

Motorcycle Specific Wiring Harness, CNC Adaptor Plate (P&P Kits)

Depending on the purchase, the Chrome supplied may have included accessories like a CNC adaptor

plate/dash mounting bracket and OEM to I2M P&P wiring harness.

If the P&P CNC adaptor plate is included in the purchase, install the adaptor plate utilizing the OEM dash

mounts on the front fairing stay. The adaptors orientation needs to be verified to insure the dash is able to

mount correctly (upright). Once the adaptor plate is connected and fastened, mount the Chrome unit to the

adaptor plate using the supplied fasteners, grommets, washers etc.

CAUTION:

The Chrome unit must not be fixed to elements subject to vibration such as fairings and frames. The

Chrome unit is equipped with anti-vibration rubber dampers therefore it is advisable to use existing

OEM anchoring dash mounts to reduce vibration to the absolute minimum. Do not remove the rubber

dampers and ensure the Chrome unit is not in contact with any part of the motorcycle other than the

rubber dampers at any given time. If the Chrome unit is incorrectly mounted to the motorcycle and

subject to vibration it can damage the unit thus leading to malfunctions etc.

www.i2m.it/en

If the P&P OEM to I2M wiring harness is included in the purchase, the generic installation method would

be to connect the one end to the supplied I2M wiring harness and the other to the original OEM dash

connector and if necessary, to the CANBUS connector (the 2-pole connector supplied to the 20-way

connector on the rear of the Chrome unit).

CAUTION:

For motorcycles equipped with a BUS, failure to connect this 20-Pin connector will impact the functionality

of the Chrome unit as some channels might be lost (not read).

Sensor Connector Wiring Harness (P&P Kit)

Depending on the purchase, the Chrome supplied may have included accessories like a sensor

connector wiring harness and some associated sensors i.e. potentiometers, inductive speed sensor,

brake pressure sensor, infrared temperature sensor etc.

If the P&P sensor connector wiring harness is included in the purchase, the installation method would be

to connect the harness to the Chrome unit (20-Pin BUS connection) however, it is possible to connect the

sensors manually using the pinout provided in this manual. Any additional sensors need to be installed

individually and always ensure that all wiring is correctly routed.

Note: Potentiometers are not supplied with fork/frame/mounting brackets, the same applies to speed and

temperature sensors.

Once the various sensors (channels) are connect to the Chrome, turn on the ignition and access the

Chrome “Configure Inputs” menu. Once accessed the channels can be viewed in real time with the first

screen showing 8x analogue inputs, speed and RPM. Holding the “DN” button for 5 seconds will switch the

screen showing the battery, water, oil, fuel and additional channels EXT1, EXT2 (with Plus only), EXT3 and

EXT4 (with Pro only). The water temperature sensor value may need individual configuration.

Should the installation be done using the generic supplied wiring, keep in mind that signals form the OEM

sensors may need a pull-up resistor to 12V or a pull-down in order for the Chrome unit to read the channel

correctly. Neutral and Oil is most common for requiring a pull-up resistor (2kOhm in most cases should be

enough).

www.i2m.it/en

Chrome Inputs

The rear of the Chrome unit is equipped with 2x Multilock female connectors, one with 16 and the other

with 20 pins. In addition to this there is two screwed connectors, one for video input (with Plus and Pro only)

and the other for the TPMS antenna (with Pro only).

The Chrome unit is equipped with a dual power supply, one directly from the motorcycle’s battery and

another from the OEM wiring loom. The unit does not draw current when turned off from either one of the

two power supplies. The direct power supply’s main function is to ensure the unit always closed files

correctly during the shutdown phase. To avoid any startup delays at the racing circuit the unit can operate

in a suspended mode (sleep mode), this can be activated in the options menu. If this function is active, the

unit can still be shut down by holding the “DN” button until the LED is lit above the gear indicator.

The Chrome unit is designed to be versatile and can function without connecting all inputs i.e. GPS

sensor etc. The unit comes equipped with the following inputs;

• 8x analog Inputs

• 2x EXT inputs (with Plus, and 4x on Pro)

• 2x speed inputs

• 1x RPM input

• 1x water temperature input (with onscreen fault indicator)

• 1x oil level input (with onscreen fault indicator)

• 1x fuel level input (with onscreen fault indicator)

• 1x battery input (with dedicated fault indicator, lit below 12.5V)

• 10x channels multiplexed at 1/10 of the sampling frequency

• 5V output for additional analog sensors

• 12V output for additional digital sensors

• GPS channel

• Video input (with Plus & Pro only)

• TPMS input (with Pro only)

CAUTION:

The 5V and 12V outputs can only be used to power any additional sensors that is not directly powered

by the motorcycle. Do not connect the 5V or 12V outputs to any power supplies or sensors directly

outputs beyond repair.

8x Analog Inputs - (0-5V to 10 bit) are mainly used to monitor throttle position, brake pressure,

potentiometers and temperature sensors etc.

2x EXT Inputs – These channels are connected directly to the Analog 1 and Analog 2 inputs. Motorcycles

with CANBUS (see table), channel 1 and 8 are utilized for the TPS and TC directly from CANBUS. With

EXT1 and EXT2 it is therefore possible to connect these inputs if external to the motorcycle. If the

motorcycle does not support CANBUS, these channels will simply mirror Analog 1 and Analog 8 inputs.

CAUTION:

When the OEM dash is removed, some pull-up resistors may be removed too. These resistors play an

integral part to reding sensors correctly i.e. oil or fuel levels. If a OEM to I2M P&P harness is not used,

check the signals as there might be a need to add some pull-up resistors.

2x Speed Inputs – These inputs can be connected to the OEM and inductive speed sensors for both the

front and rear wheel. The number of pulses vary from motorcycle to motorcycle and therefore has to be

configured in the Chrome unit’s menu.

1x RPM Input – This is a dedicated input for the motorcycles engine RPM and obtainable by accessing the

signal sent by the junction box to the OEM dashboard. The number of pulses vary from motorcycle to
