DIY flatshifter? Possible?
mark w - 22/12/11 at 08:21 PM

Hi all, I've been doing some research on flatshifters & have found some info on making my own, just wondering what everyone's thoughts are really?
There is a link below & on page 2 someone has posted that a micro switch can be connected into the power commander 3, if this can be done does anyone know which pins to connect it to? Cheers

You need to install a software 'upgrade' into the powercommander to activate the flatshift function.
(believe that it can be 'found' quite easily)
Then just two wires into the auxilliary port - can't remember which two pins though....

Thanks for that info, just had a quick search & have found some good info & a file to download to activate the function, it still doesn't tell me the pins to connect to on the pc3 though.

" Hi Everyone, Just a Quick Heads up regarding Power Commander Settings

With ALL Quick Shifter and the PC III USB:

The Quick Shifter function on the PC III USB needs to be "enabled" before it will work.

This is done by downloading the "PCShiftKillEnable.exe" program and running it on a PC with the PC III USB connected.

The link to get this file is:

http://www.powercommander.com/downlo...KillEnable.zip

I recommend that you download and save the file first, and then use it to upload to your PC III USB.

Bikes prior to the 05 - 06 era do not require the ignition module and can use the Nextup Quick Shifter and our PC III USB Connector to go straight to the Power Commander"
