TFT – Parameter setting/display

Warning
Operate on the instrument panel only when the motorcycle is stopped. Do not operate on the instrument panel while you are riding the motorcycle under no circumstances.
Once check routine is over, the instrument panel will always display the Odometer (TOT) on the left-hand side and the Average Consumption on the right-hand side as “main” indication (unless Menu 2 has been disabled).
“Main” displaying includes the following information:

• Set Riding Mode;
• Gear indication (GEAR);
• Menu 1: Odometer (TOT);
• Menu 2: Average Fuel Consumption (CONS. AVG).

By pressing button (1) it is possible to toggle to the following functions of menu 1:

• TRIP1: Trip meter 1;
• TRIP2: Trip meter 2;
• RANGE – Indication of estimated distance that can be run.

By pressing button (2) it is possible to toggle to the following functions of menu 2:

• CONS. – Instant fuel consumption;
• SPEED AVG – Average speed;
• TRIP TIME – Trip time;
• AIR – Air temperature.
  Menu 2 displaying can be disabled through the “MENU 2” Function of the Setting menu.

Total distance covered indicator

“Odometer
This function allows displaying the indication of the total distance travelled (Km or miles according to the specific application).
Upon Key-On, system will automatically access this function.
The value is saved permanently and cannot be reset. If the value exceeds 199999 km (or 199999 miles) “199999” will be displayed permanently.
The reading is not lost in case of a power OFF (Battery OFF).

“Trip 1” meter
This function allows displaying the indication of the partial distance travelled (Km or miles according to the specific application). When this function is accessed and button (1) is kept pressed for 3 seconds, trip meter will be reset. When the reading exceeds 9999.9, the distance traveled is reset and the meter automatically starts again.

Note
When this reading is reset, also “Average Consumption”, “Average Speed” and “Trip Time” functions are reset.
Whenever the system unit of measurement is changed from the “SET UNITS” function of the Setting menu or in case of power off (Battery Off), the distance travelled is reset and the meter starts counting from zero again (considering the new set units of measurement).

“Trip 2” meter
This function allows displaying the indication of the partial distance travelled (Km or miles according to the specific application). When this function is accessed and button (1) is kept pressed for 3 seconds, trip meter will be reset. When the reading exceeds 9999.9, the distance traveled is reset and the meter automatically starts again.

Note
Whenever the system unit of measurement is changed from the “SET UNITS” function of the Setting menu or in case of power off (Battery Off), the distance travelled is reset and the meter starts counting from zero again (considering the new set units of measurement).

“RANGE” indicator – Estimate of the
distance that can be covered
This function estimates the distance that can be run depending on the quantity of fuel measured by the probe in the tank and on the average consumption measured in the last period.
This indication can be a value between 0 km and 340 km (approximate value) for the EU versions, or between 0 km and 320 km (approximate value) for the US versions.

Indicator “CONS. AVG” – Average fuel consumption
This function indicates vehicle average fuel consumption.
The calculation is made considering the quantity of fuel used and the distance traveled since Trip 1 was last reset. When Trip 1 is reset, the value is reset and the first value available is displayed 10 seconds after the reset. During the first 10 seconds, when the value is not yet available, the display will show a string of dashes “- – -“.
Value is indicated in “L / 100” (litres / 100 Km).
The active calculation phase occurs when the engine is running and the motorcycle is stopped (moments when the motorcycle is not moving and the engine is OFF are not considered).

Note
It is possible to change the units of measurement for “Consumption” (both average and instantaneous together) from L/100 to km/L through the Setting menu, using the “SET UNITS” function.

Indicator “CONS.” – Instantaneous fuel consumption
This function indicates vehicle instant fuel consumption.
The calculation is made considering the quantity of fuel used and the distance travelled during the last second. Value is indicated in “L / 100” (litres / 100 Km). The active calculation phase only occurs when the engine is running and the motorcycle is moving
(moments, when the motorcycle is not moving when speed is equal to 0 and/or when the engine is OFF, are not considered).
When the calculation is not made, a string of dashes is displayed “- -.-“.

Note
It is possible to change the units of measurement for “Consumption” (both average and instantaneous together) from L/100 to km/L through the Setting menu, using the “SET UNITS” function.

Indicator “SPEED AVG” – Average speed
This function indicates vehicle average speed. The calculation considers the distance and time since Trip 1 was last reset. When Trip 1 is reset, the value is reset and the first value available is displayed 10 seconds after the reset. During the first 10 seconds, when the value is not yet available, the display will show a string of dashes “- -.-“.
The active calculation phase occurs when the engine is running even if the motorcycle is stopped
(moments when the motorcycle is not moving and the engine is OFF are not considered). The calculated value is then displayed as increased by 5% to be aligned with vehicle speed indication.

Indicator “TRIP TIME” – Trip time
This function indicates vehicle trip time. The calculation considers the time since Trip 1 was last reset. When Trip 1 is reset, this value is reset as well. The calculation active phase occurs when the engine is running even if the motorcycle is stopped (the time is automatically stopped when the motorcycle is not moving and the engine is OFF and restarts when the counting active phase starts again).
When the reading exceeds 511:00 (511 hours and 00 minutes), the meter is reset and automatically starts counting from 0 again.

Note
If you change the unit of measurement for an item connected to “speed” (and distance) or
“consumption” using the “SET UNITS” function of the Setting menu, the trip time value will be automatically reset.

Indicator “AIR” – Air temperature
This function allows displaying ambient temperature. Displaying range: -39 °C ÷ +124 °C.
In case of sensor FAULT (-40°C, +125°C or disconnected) a string of steady dashes “- – -” will be displayed and the “Engine/Vehicle Diagnosis – EOBD” light will come on.

Engaged gear indicator
This function allows displaying gears (A). The instrument panel receives the information and indicates the engaged gear or “N” for neutral.

“Riding Style set” indication
This function indicates the “Riding mode” set on vehicle.
THREE different “Riding modes” are available: SPORT, TOURING and URBAN.
Each riding mode can be changed through the
“RIDING MODE” function.
The “background” indicating the riding mode (SPORT, TOURING or URBAN) (A) is blue if the parameters connected to the currently-set riding mode are the default ones (set by Ducati) or yellow if one or more parameters have been changed (customized) through the Setting menu, using “RIDING MODE” function.

Indication if the “LAP” function is active/not active
This function indicates if the “LAP” (Lap time) function is enabled.
When “LAP” is off, function is disabled.
“LAP” Function can be enabled through the “LAP” Function of the Setting menu.

“SIDE STAND” indication
This indication warns the rider that the side stand is open.
If side stand Sensor error is present on the CAN line, the display shows a stand down/open warning “SIDE STAND”, turns on the EOBD light and displays the corresponding error “Side stand sensor”.
If the instrument panel does not receive side stand status (no frame), the indication will flash to indicate an undefined status.
