I'm sure this has been brought up before but since I have snow covering the roads I decided to sit my "Beast" and play with the RECC system. I would like to get acquainted with my new love before the riding season avails itself. As such I'm trying to figure out how to set/reset the trip meters and have the clock display. I cant even find these items. I figured how to set KM-M and go from C to F. I cant get the Left-Right switches (per owners manual) to display trip, clock, trip time etc. I decided maybe its one of those systems where the operator needs to lift his left leg and hop around while holding a secret button? Don't laugh.....I've experience crazy systems before. Your help is appreciated.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

You set the display to time...then hold the mode button till the time flashes...then set the hour with th set button then mode to minutes the set then mode will take you to total miles..you can not reset this. mode again and you get trip A which holding the mode button will set it to zero. then mode will take you to trip B holding mode will reset to zero. then mode will take you to ryding time and holding mode will reset to zero then mode will take you to total engine run time which you can not reset....hope this helps some....:thumbup:

Just to confirm. You are looking at the secondary digital display.
Sorry but it does not compute
Thanks for the feed back but I cant even get to the hours/trip area of my screen let alone the "secondary" screen whatever that is. My left/right arrows do not do what the owners manual (OM) says it should do. The OM is very vague and the CD that came with the bike was not even for my bike but a generic CD. Can Ams website, YouTube chanel etc are nothing more then fluff that sells their clothing and accessories with a few "ride between the cones" tests. Nothing about the screen setup on an F3s can be found.

The way you describe the problem it's as if the secondary dsplay is currently blank? It should always show one of the folowing:
Does it show one of these in the area marked '6' on this diagram?:

To get to the secondary screen do you have to hold the mode button? Can I just use the left/right buttons? Thanks

I didn't understand what the "second screen" was. I was trying to find it in the "mode" section without realizing it was just the little bottom screen in front of my face. After I realized where it was I set the time/date/trip A/Trip B and the trip hour setting in a few seconds. Thanks for the help though.

You don't need to do anything to get to the secondary display, it should always be on and show one of the things in that list. The buttons just change what is showing or reset the trip etc.
If that area in the display is blank I can only assue you have a faulty gauge cluster. Has there ever been anything showing in that area? Date? Trip? Hours?

Thanks for the reply. I found what was already in front of my face, I just didn't know what I was looking at. Thanks again. :joke:
