That doesn't seem to cover what I'm asking - does it just plug in-line (serial) with the power commander?

I'm assuming you have a PC III USB Mike? From memory it plugs into that unit and you then download the necessary software (as per my link) and firmware upgrade (if required)

To be totally sure though you may have to email the Power Commander people as I'm not sure any regular contributor on here has one actually fitted
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

Yeah I do have a PCIII USB.

It's academic though, An unforseen and adverse change in income has put a line under the discretionary spending....

Bugger.  It's all fine though, It's not as if I can't ride it as is  :)

I have PCV.
I find some picure from internet:
there is small holes left from central cable (first picture). Those are different analog input's, which can be configured from Dynojet software. Connecting shifter cables there, you can choose what type of shifter you use (normally open circuit or normally closed circuit) fuel  cutting time in milliseconds and etc...

Not sure about PC3, but second picture is also from internet... I hope, management software also enable to activate shifter.

Recently fitted a Dynojet quickshifter to mine, it plugs straight in to the auxilliary port on the PC3 but you have to "enable" the quick shift feature, (PCV enables automatically).
To do this you need to download the PC3 Control Centre Software and the Shift Kill Software for PC3USB from here http://www.powercommander.com/powercommander/downloads/powercommander_downloads.aspx?ProdType=PCIIIUSB ideally to a laptop, (must be windows operating system). Once quick shifter is fitted and connected connect laptop via usb cable to the mini usb socket on the PC3 and run the Shift Kill software, (IMPORTANT: ENGINE NEEDS TO BE RUNNING) you will see a graphic of a PC3, simply click where it says "Enable" and all is done.
Quickshifters for the GSX are preset to cut the ignition for 65 milli-seconds and only to "enable" above 4000rpm,  if you want to alter these settings you need to run the control centre software which will allow you to change the "kill" time and the engine speed at which the quick shift becomes active.
With regards length of gear linkage, you just need to tell them bike model and/or length of current gear linkage and they will send the correct part/parts to fit, to fine tune the length, the linkage shafts are pre-marked at 8mm intervals to aid cutting.  I have rearsets on mine so needed a fairly long linkage which wasn't a problem.
I also noticed that the quickshifter performs best when engine is up to temperature, don't expect slick gear changes when the engine/gearbox is cold, and contrary to what a lot of people think, you are not onliged to "quickshift" all the time, it quite happily accomodates "normal" gear changes with or without clutch.
