LBCU - Light Bar Control Unit - Programming

mickey53usa · 05-18-2010, 06:07 AM

Not much information found here on the LBCU - particularly the programming. Is there a more in-depth programming guide then what is in the Freightliner manual? I figured out how to set the clock, but in the process I have apparently deleted the "Leg" reading, but now seem to have two (2) "ODO" readings. I think I also stumbled across MPG reading, but can't seem to find it now - was playing with it at a stop light.
Suggestions or a more indepth manual?

Someplace on the FL website are instructions on operating this "bar". I'll see if I can find it. I have in my MH the instruction booklet but I'm not near my mh until Wed. Stay tuned.

Try this starting in section 2

Thanks, I found the "manual" on a Tiffin site and on Freightliner's. I was looking for something more in-depth. I guess I don't understand, yet, the different menus when the headlights are on versus headlight off, etc. Was looking for something that explained that - might have to write my own.

Give 1-800-FTL-HELP a call and they can get you all the information you can use and it's location. If they are busy leave a message as they are 100% on call backs.

What I found is that it really takes is time to just sit there and play around with it. Some things then seem to get intuitive after awhile. I've been able to reset my trip readings ...I do so after each fuel stop but I'm still playing around with other functions so that I can access them quickly without "thinking" too much about it. It's amazing how much information it gives and what it can do once you starting playing with it.

These computers would be easy for the kids to figure out but to some of us who didn't grow up with computers, it can get frustrating at times.

mickey, here is a rough photocopy of the manual to the LBCU, if you don't already have it, that gives a little more explanation than the manual I received with my coach.
