Please Read Before Installing
DENALI products should always be installed by a qualified motorcycle technician. If you are unsure of your ability to properly install a product, please have the product installed by your local motorcycle dealer. DENALI takes no responsibility for damages caused by improper installation. Caution: When installing electronics it is extremely important to pay close attention to how wires are routed, especially when mounting products to the front fender, front fork, or fairing of your motorcycle. Always be sure to turn the handlebars fully left, fully right, and fully compress the suspension to ensure the wires will not bind and have enough slack for your motorcycle to operate properly.

Installation Tips
We strongly recommend using a medium-strength liquid thread locker on all screws and bolts. It is also important to ensure that all hardware is tightened to the proper torque specifications as listed in your owner’s manual. For included accessory hardware please refer to the default torque specifications provided below. Inspect all hardware after the first 30 miles to ensure that proper torque specifications are maintained.

Hardware Sizing Guide
Not sure what size bolt you have? Use this ruler to measure screws, bolts, spacers, etc.
Remember, the length of a screw or bolt is measured from the start of the “mounting surface” to the end of the screw, so only include the screw head when measuring countersunk screws.

1.1 – Overview of Device

The DENALI CANsmart™ Controller provides plug-n-play installation and integrated control of up to four accessories to enable dozens of customizable settings that can be controlled right from the Vehicles Controller or the CANsmart™ Accessory Manager Software.
The four circuits are pre-programmed to connect and independently control two sets of DENALI 2.0 lights, a SoundBomb horn, and our B6 auxiliary brake light. However,  our Circuit Function Selector in the CANsmartsoftware will let you run any accessory of your choice on any of the four circuits.

The illustration above depicts the preprogrammed default configuration, to see all available circuit functions and settings please refer to Section 6 or visit our online user guide at:  DENALIelectronics.com/cansmart-user-guide 

1.2 – Overview of System Features
The two auxiliary light circuits enable independent adjustment of high and low beam brightness right from the vehicle’s factory controls It also features a “flash to pass” and  “strobe when horn active” setting that will strobe the auxiliary lights when you pulse your high beam switch or sound your horn.
The feature-rich brake light circuit will transform a simple 2-wire brake light into a “smart brake light” complete with running light, multiple flash patterns, and deceleration-activated braking functionality.
The horn circuit enables the addition of an auxiliary horn without having to add a relay and dedicated horn wiring harness.
