CMSport Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hey guys, can someone please recommend a suitable knock amp to run as a hard-wired input to the ECU? I have a G4 knockblock and knocklink, both of which are useful tools, neither of which seem to be able to be used as a permanent interface to the G4+ I seem to recall a wire-in type knockblock but have not actually seen it advertised for sale, therefore assume that there is a suitable alternative?

Adamw Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 If you have an Atom it has no knock control functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSport Posted June 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hi Adam, thanks for your response... I'm guessing you took this info from below my avatar.. which I forgot was there! I did once upon a time own this ECU but am actually a Link dealer and currently running a Monsoon in my own car but lack knowledge of what the best solution is to run for ECU's with knock windowing but no direct input capability. Or am I just a little bit confused? Cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 https://www.linkecu.com/products/ecu-comparison-chart/ The Atom and Monsoon dont have knock control capability, only the Storm and upwards. The knock window and knk feedback functions that you see in the aux outputs and DI's is of no use in the Atom or Monsoon as it has no knock control function in the firmware to generate or use these I/O.

CMSport Posted June 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 yes I gather as much... but still my question is what product do we use for permanently wired knock amp/control?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 Sorry Im not sure I understand what you are asking. All of our G4+ ECU's that have knock control functionality in the firmware (such as Storm, Xtreme etc) already have the audio hardware built in, you connect the knock sensor directly to the dedicated knock input pin(s) on the ECU, no extra hardware is needed. iliasfyntanidis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
