impellerhead Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 I am thinking about using 4 Ecotrons ALM-LSU ADV lambdas with pre turbo sensors via the can bus for logging purpose and still use my existing analog input Lambda as the primary Lambda 1 tuning sensor. Is this possible and how do I configure this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Currently the G4+ Firmware supports only 2 Lambda sensors (over CAN or analog). The only way I think you could use another 2 lambda sensors would be to configure them as CAN volt channels and then assign the CAN volt channels as axis on individual cylinder fuel trim tables.We have on the request list to add more Lambda parameters.

24TZ Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Instead of creating a new thread I thought i would bump this back upLooking to purchase a Link Fury for my rb26, would like to run individual Lambda and egt's in the manifold runners. Whats the best way to set this up? Is there any updates on the post above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Yes, software and firmware has been updated since the original post, you can now have 8 lambda channels via CAN. You will probably want to use CAN for your EGT's also since you will use up your analog inputs pretty quick with 6 egts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24TZ Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Thanks for the reply.Any chance of pointing me in the direction of a can module that works well with the link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24TZ Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Hi Scott, can the above accept more than one sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 You will need a Link CAN-Lambda module for each sensor. There are a couple of dual Lambda to CAN modules on the market, but I'm not aware of any 4 or 8 channel units.Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 but I'm not aware of any 4 or 8 channel units.Scotthttp://aemelectronics.com/?q=products/wideband-uego-air-fuel-controllers/4-channel-wideband-uego-afr-controllerCAN info is published so I assume these would work with link too. Still probably not the best option for a 6 cylinder but thought I would mention it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister2 Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 I will be purchasing a Link Thunder unit and before I do I have a couple questions. 1. From what I read above, I will be able to use my AEM 4-channel UEGO module and transmit the data to this unit via CAN,correct.?2. Does the PCLink software have the ability to protect the engine when an individual cylinder goes outside set A/F parameters?3. I also have a Racepak iq3 dash using CAN, do I need some type of CAN hub (like Haltech) when connecting multiple CAN devices?4. Last one is a little off-topic sorry. I've read that using CAN with a USB connected will cause problems. Does that mean I cannot tune the vehicle via laptop at the same time display CAN data through my IQ3 dash?Thanks for any info you can provide!

Scott Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) Hi Mister2,1. We don't have a pre-set calibration for the AEM 4 channel EUGO, but others have used them with our ECUs before.2. You can have individual cylinder fuel trim tables, and it is possible to set the lambda target on one axis, and the actual measured lambda for a particular cylinder (if physically installed this way!) on the other axis. You can then specify an amount of trim. Previously this was not possible as we only were able to receive 2 Lambda inputs over CAN, but the engineers have been hard at work and now this is possible.3. No, CAN only uses two wires, so you can use what ever method you like of connecting the CAN devices to the CAN bus.4. Some G4+ ECUs contain a 6 pin round communication port on the front of the ECU. This communication port contains CAN H, CAN L, RS232 Rx, RS232 Tx, and Ground. If you connect just to the CAN H and CAN L pins there is no problem to use CAN and the tuning port at the same time. If you connect to the RS232 pins then there is a problem. So yes you can use the CAN bus at the same time as using the tuning port. The G4+ Thunder has its CAN connections on the D wiring loom connector, so no communication port fitted anyway.Scott Edited October 4, 2016 by Scott Additional info to reduce confusion.
