Default Apexi AVC-R How??

Hi Guy's
My new car has an Apexi AVC-R boost controller fitted and sitting on the dash.
But not knowing anything about them, i'm a little scared to touch it in case i mess anything up.
As it is all set-up.
All i'm looking to do is see how the 2nd stage of boost works.
How do i access this.
Are there any easy to follow steps.
Any help very much apprecicated.
Cheers Dave.

you could try reading the Manual , I haven't read it though so it may not help with what you want

Er!!, yes mate, have looked at the manual and that's why i'm asking, very confusing,
All i'm trying to do is find out how to set stage 1 and stage 2 boost
Basically after a dumbo's guide to setting stage 1 and stage 2 boost.
Cheers Dave.

Has the AVCR already been properly configured by somebody who knows what they're doing with it?

What are you actually trying to do ? - Just change between the two preset boost levels, SettingA and SettingB?

Car has already been set by previous owner / tuner.
I just want to change between the two preset boost levels, Setting A and Setting B.
Cheers Dave.

turn on the ignition to power up the AVCR

Press PREV until you reach the main menu - MONITOR/SETTING/ETC

Highlight SETTING and push the right arrow - This will flick between SETTING A and SETTING B which are your 2 preset boost levels. Pressing the left arrow will turn the solenoid control off, and you will just be runnning at wastegate spring pressure

Whilst Setting A (or B) is highlighted, if you press NEXT, it will show you a sub menu for that boost setting. Select Number1 (Boost/Duty) and press NEXT again - this will show you the preset boost target, and if you press NEXT again, it will show you the solenoid duty cycle for the particular set boost target

Pushing PREV will take you back up the menu tree.

Read through the manual - Theres a lot of very useful features, and it's really easy to navigate (and set up) when you get the hang of it.
