I have sixrt's getch (the normal $70 jobbie of ebay) and dont know how to use it... what do you do to set it up... I know I have to have it level but how do I get it to work??.. am asking as I dont have the instructions... I just have the gtech I borrowed but have never used one b4.thanksNo prob Jetute, 1- slide switch to either centre or far left to turn on.2- It will flash Accl & GFrc, push button when the one you want is displayed.(most likely Acceleration)3-then choose either far left for horsepower or centre position for timing.4-If you chose GFce, then far left is for continuous G's and centre is for instant G readings.5-make sure it's level by reading 0.0 G's6- Press Button and it will display GO7-It will then start timing when you start accelerating8- It will blink a time when you reach 60mph.9- Either brake to a halt to get that reading displayed or keep going until it displays 1/4 mile time & speed.I tried to make it as simple as I could, hope this helpsBTW, 10- Keep eyes open for boys in blue. Clarkethanks... super post... will print this out so I can use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got mine on eBay from a retailer based in Geelong - for $290 brand new in box. He advertises on Ebay all the time - so you should be able to find him..
