I made a cable similar to the one described by Jtrapass here:

I had to connect the cable and power on the ignition before starting the Curvemaker program. Otherwise the ignition was not found by the PC.
When you program the ignition the switches will no longer function. Make sure you set all of the parameters you need including single/dual fire, rev limit, and timing curve. If it screws up the performance, go to the diagnostics tab and click the button that reads "Use Switches" to set it back to normal.
goodluck

I got a 93" shovel with dyna 2000i. I'm programming the "break points" section now in curvemaker, how many degrees of timing advance is good to add and at what rpm's should I add it? Whats the max amount of timing degrees to add?
Should I add the same amount for WOT and part throttle?
Thanks.

Most people pick one of the curves that come with the Curvemaker software. There are 4 traditional curves available if you click "Load Curve" on the timing tab. Curve 1 is the most aggressive and has 35 degrees of advance.
It may be faster to use the dip switches first to choose a curve and then load the same curve number using the software.

It is pretty easy to do.

I can do it for you but you'll have to buy a programming cable from me. That's $40 plus shipping. See the link that I posted above for details and my email.

I know this is a 2 year old thread but I was wondering if the guys that installed their Dynatek iggy and reprogrammed it for their kickstarter if it works good kicking? Im getting ready to install a Dyna 2000P on my 92 Softail Springer

Try a new thread for your question or send one of them a pm. It actually started in 2008, they all may not be watching. Good luck, twisted, mine kicks ok for stock ignition....
