If the car is equipped with an ACS (Sensonic), the Saab Information Display (SID) receives information on the system via pin 6.
Communication is of single-wire data link type. The following messages can be displayed:
-
"DISENGAGE GEAR"
Displayed if input shaft speed exceeds 7000 rpm after changing gear or if neither the brake pedal nor the accelerator is depressed when the car is
stationary with a gear engaged. This message is also displayed if an attempt is made to start the engine with a gear engaged or with reverse gear
engaged and the brake pedal not depressed.
-
"SHIFT DOWN"
Displayed if input shaft speed is less than 850 rpm after changing gear.
-
"OVERHEATED CLUTCH"
Displayed when the clutch is overloaded (overheated).
Clock and Outside Temperature
Clock (analogue)
All three versions of the Saab Information Display (SID) unit incorporate an analogue clock.
The time is set by means of two buttons below the clock, one to put it forward (+) and one to put it back (-).
Clock (digital)
The digital clock in SID unit 3 is used by the trip computer for performing calculations and generating alarms.
The digital clock follows any adjustment of the analogue clock. During such adjustment, the digital clock time is shown on the SID unit display.
If the battery has been disconnected the clocks must be synchronized as follows:
1
First set the analogue clock and then the digital one.
2
Press SET to synchronize them.
RDS time
The RDS (Radio Data System) is an information system which is broadcast parallel with regular FM broadcasts.
By means of RDS time, the clock can be set to the time broadcast by the radio station.
1
Press the two clock setting buttons below the analogue clock for longer than four seconds (the radio must be switched on with RDS activated).
