Default Transbrake, Linelock, 2step, nitrous wiring

Hey Guys. I am about to start wiring up my new combo. Here is what i have

FJO mini progressive
LPE 2 step
Linelock
Transbrake

Basically I need the linelock to operate seperately for the burnout, but then i would like to have everything tied to the transbrake button. So after I do the burnout I pull to the beams and hold the button. While holding the button the 2 step is active, linelock is active, transbrake is active, nitrous is disabled. Releasing the button deactivates the linelock, 2 step, transbrake, and enables the nitrous system.

I believe i can use input #2 on the FJO and tell it when it get 12v to disable the stage. I think this would allow the momentary switch to provide 12v to FJO, 2step, linelock, and transbrake.

Assuming that works how would i get the linelock to work seperate from all the above for the burnout prior to the launch.

Thanks!

I wouldn't operate the line lock off the button like that, leave it totally seperate.

That diagram isn't bad, there's alot easier way to do it but I am not sure how the 2 step will wire in with the diagram I have, I would have to see the instructions on the 2 step to see how it needs to be hooked up.

I was told you want to use the linelock when your staged to hold the car. Ive never used a transbrake so im not sure if thats even necessary.

Some guys use a line lock with a brake. None of the guys I hang with do.
It's just one more thing to go wrong or slow down your reaction time. Trans brake holds the car just fine.
It holds mine rock solid & it has 1-2 HP.

My transbrake holds my car fine too, I think it may roll foreward an inch maybe then that's it the car doesn't move, that's with my foot on the floor up on the 5000+ converter.

Shoot me an e-mail and I will send you a wiring diagram that you only have to add the 2 step into It is alot simpler then the one above and it works perfect.

I like the diagram, But. I am currently running the N20 system through a Timming Tunner box for the retard feature, Now I am a bit confused as to wiring it up to the Tbrake with the tunner.

So if you have the LPE 2 step launch controller with nitrous, you wouldn't be able to press the gas pedal to the floor right? Obviously the nitrous would spray and that would not be good.. HOw would someone come about wiring the 2step up with nitrous?

if it's a stick car the clutch switch will activate the 2 step, and deactivate the nitrous, you will have to have a WOT to turn it on, and a similar swtch on the clucth pedal so when the clutch is down the nitrous can't spray.

On an auto car, when the transbrake in activated, that has to disable the nitrous system/enable the transbrake, and you have to have a WOT switch so that the nitrous can only come on when your foot is to the floor. When the transbrake is enabled, that will also enable the 2 step.

Im running a 200r4. I have a wot and the arming switch. The FJO has a second input that you can say either enables or disables a stage. In my case sending 12v (holding the tb button) sends a signal to input 2 and disables the nitrous system. This should allow me to floor it and activate the 2 step and transbrake. As soon as i release the button input 2 will no longer receive a signal and will activate the nitrous system (as i will be wot still and within the rpm range)

thats what i *think* will happen

With the fjo it has an input so when you signal the 2 step (ground ) you can program the fjo so it disables the nitrous.when you hit the t brake button it sends ground to the 2 step arming it and grounds the curciut for the trans brake. The fjo turns off the nitrous
