Thanks for the help today setting up my knock control Bryce , I got the engine grounding strap , will install it tomorrow , I am still trying to get a hold of Sebastien for 6-8 months now , trying to find out what he found out from ViPec on my old ECU that fryed the DC/AC rectifier !

Thanks

What watt should this 1K ohm resistor , since it is a signal it should be low 1/4 or 1/2 ?

OK , got it , thanks.

Still try to find out how to do this , thanks

OK , i understand how to hook up my new IAT sensor ( using MAF air temp.) sensor type Std bosch NTC THIS IS FOR DATA LOGGING MY AIR TEMP. BEFORE MY INTERCOOLER OK after reading the input signal wiring , analog inputs , using voltage channel with NTC sensor in the help section -- I SEE HOW TO WIRE THEM UP NOW but how do i set it up , i go to analog inputs , AN Volt 8, set it to GP input ?( it say for me to use GP input the sensor must have a 0-5V output , and I MUST know the temp to volt reading ) So if I use GP input , how do i calibration it for temp , cal table 3 , temp .output is in c -40 too 110 and i know the ohms resistance for each temp. from the unloaded resistance-temperature characteristic table for the sensor , am i on the right track , can,t use Cal 5 , as you can not put -40 in , and i do not know the temp. to volt ( trying to set up two coolant temp sensors for logging my intercooler coolant inlet and outlet temp.) ***** the Vipec needs more AN Temp points

Thanks for the reply Dave , so if i am installing a temp sensor to AN temp 3 and temp. sensors to AN volt 8, AN volt 9 & AN volt 10 ( these are all on B connector) should i use B 22 sensor signal ground for all 4 new sensors , and if so can i just tie all four of these sensor signal grounds in on the sensor signal ground wire already there for Temp 4 or AN volt 6. And you say if i am using any of the AN volt for a temp. sensor i have to install a 1K ohm resistor , does this go in the sensor signal wire going to the AN volt pin OR in the sensor signal ground wire , and do i cut the wire and solder it in line? OR leave the wire intact two bare spots and solder that way. Sorry for so many ? , but got to learn some how and i thank that guys that spend the time teaching guys like me .

Ok ,i know this may be a basic ? , but here it is I would like to add another IAT sensor before my intercooler ( data /info only ) ,i would like to connect this to AN Temp 3 and tag it as MAF air temp, so my fuel IAT correction would not be affected , the ? i have were does the other sensor wire ( ground go ) At the same time i would like to add 2 more temp. sensor ( intercooler coolant in and out ), i can use AN VOLT 8 and 9 for these sensor , and again were does the second sensor wire go . Thanks

Ok , updated to 4.9.9 on the apex , after reading all the note from 4.8.5 ( that's what I had ) the only thing I had to do was turn the AFR target overlay off , also when doing this it asked me to select a point for timer #2 ( I selected off ) know I am looking for this timer- where is it / whats it for ? Thanks PS Ya , almost forgot , now I can set my Baro (BAP) from 60 to 100 ) so that's fixed.

Thanks Dave , I will let you know

Ok , thanks , the ECU on my PRO sled has 4.9.3 , I will start with the Apex. I will have to try and remember how to do this , it been awhile Curtis Merry Xmiss

Ok I try doing this , but it still will not let me apply it , I set the Y axis to Baro , initialise it , it sets the value at 96 , 97 , 98 , 99, 100 , 101, 102 , 103 , 104 , I change the 96 to 60 then 65, 70 , 75 ,80 , 85 , 90 , 95 & 100 , but when I try to apply it , it comes up with a Error saying Y axis values must rang between 90 and 110 ? My main Code firmware Version is 4.8.5 , do I need to update , and if so would the update change anything else?

Thank you , I will give it a try , thanks and Merry X-Mas

Hi , its been awhile , I have a V88 on my turbod apex sled , trying to set up a 4D map in the fuel and ignition correction , RPM,s on the X and Baro on the Y , problem is , it will not let me apply the "Y" baro , trying to set it up between 60-100 , a note come up saying it must be set between 90-110 ? Thanks

Ok, thanks for the reply

OK , i have my unit set up to do barometric correction and understand that it make baro correction to the main fuel table , what about the IAT correction , acceleration fuel table , does the barometric correction do anything to these tables. just trying to understand how this work. Lets say , the day you tune your engine the barometric pressure is 98 kpa and you tune the engine main map , IAT and acceleration tables ,then you go to an area were the barometric pressure drops to 74 kpa , i understand that the MAIN map does the Barometric correction , what about the IAT and acceleration table , if the IAT table was set up to add 1.5% for a 5 degree drop in air temp. of air at barometric air pressure of 98kpa , then with the same IAT drop at a barometric air pressure of 74 kpa , would,nt the IAT correction have to add less, This is on a boosted engine.

I am using a AEM inline wideband UEGO setup!!!!

So are you saying that the data logging at 50HZ is for 3000rpms , my engine goes to 11700 rmps , so this is why my logged AFR looks like it is off by a second or two when i am looking at my data logs , i seen where this is/was happening , did not know why , makes you guess at tuning where the lean/rich spots are .

Thanks , talked to the engine /turbo kit builder today , after looking at the data logs , it looks lake it is going lean under hard accel.( 80KPA MAP and up ) , the boost build so fast , guys watching me tune , did say it did have a pop to it when i was hitting the throttle , engine builder said this could/would give a trigger1 error and also what would be causeing the engine stalling . So , increased (ing ) the load accel. fuel ,( HE ALSO SAID FOR ME TO CHECK/ ADJUST THE CAM TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER IF NEEDED )and get back to tuning, hope this works , i will let you know .

Thanks for the response Thats what i was thinking as well ,but do not know much about the triggers , Ray had me change trigger 2 /Type -optical/hall///trigger 2 pullup-on/// trigger 2 edge- falling/// sync mode - cam pulse 1x--- to filter 2 ( from filter 1) But trigger 1 is still on filter 1 ///trigger 1 type- reluctor///trigger filtering - level 1///multitooth posn-crank/// tooth count-24/// trigger1 arming threshold--RPM 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 7000 .5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 and i am getting trig 1 err counts , how do you tell if its a trigger shutting you down , is this normal to be getting these trigger 1 err counts??? Thanks for any help .

Running a V-88 on turbocharged sled ,is there a place to look in the program to see if i am hitting (shutdown) by a limiter , (Rev/boost, oil ) i have had accouple times when in then out and back into the throttle that the engine just shuts off , just like you turned the key off , nothing showing on data logs RPM limiter set at 12000 max on data log was 11600 , boost limiter set at 275kpa , MAP i was hitting 147kpa MGP , BAP was 87kpa and MAP was 234 kpa !!

Mine did/does the same thing. i just took it that it is saying its good to go because it is with in +/- 5 kpa of the baro pressure . Mine reads -5 MPG with the engine off.

Hi Simon , updated my firmware to the latest , i like it much better so far , thank you

Thank you .
