  1. Hi all,

    Just to be different and to rid yourselves of many issues maybe try something a little different.

    I have been doing this on G3 to G4 upgrades, G4 ,V Series ViPEC, G4+ and I SERIES Standalone and PNP ecu's.

    Simply purchase a Windows based tablet, load your appropriate LINK / ViPEC software onto the unit and setup dash display layouts to suit etc.

    This gives you the ability to display what ever data you wish to display as real time gauges, data logging, Tuning ability, remote log in with Teamviewer with internet access via wifi or HOTSPOT your phone etc.

    Display any errors n the fly also.

    You can get fairly reasonably priced Windows based OS tablet for a couple of hundred dollars these days .

    I use and prefer Toshiba but is only my personal preference.

    You simply use the ECU tuning lead that you are supplied with when you purchase your ECU, then a standard USB to mini USB adaptor as """""MOST""""" tablets use a mini USB connector.

    Regards

    Dave.

  2. Hi,

    you need to back trace the circuits that are staying live with the ignition turned off.

    Normally there will be a relay or relays that have the coil power side of the relay have 12 volts applied at all times.

    This pin on the relay needs to be made active (HIGH) 12 volts positive only when the ignition is turned on.

    This is the most common fault / cause of the problem.

    Regards

    Dave.

  3. Hi Chris,

    just a quick suggestion only one of the inlet cam sensors are used for full sequential fuel and spark, so you always have a second sensor spare to use anyway.

    Just swap the sensor should you have one fail.

    Or do you have other plans for the setup that you have not suggested.

    May I ask why you are set on using HALL EFFECT sensors and no MAG RELUCTORS, that only require 2 wires,don't require a reference voltage and generate their own power which creates a sine wave that can be increased with rpm and or air gap.

    Regards

    Dave.

     

  4. Hi all,

    I just wanted to let everyone know I am still alive and slowly getting better after major surgery.

    Hopefully another couple of weeks and I will be able to get back to one of my very favourite past times, helping out with tech support where ever I can.

    I honestly miss this aspect of my life and has been a huge part of my life for so many years.

    I miss all the fantastic crew at LINK and can't wait to get back to business as usual.

    Take care everyone.

    Talk soon,

    Regards

    Dave.

  5. Hi khaled,

    please find information you require attached below.

    The Connector block and pin description in the LINK HELP FILE is to suit a REV 1.4 circuit board.

    There are a few funky things with this ecu.

    Regards

    Dave.

  8. Hi Melv,

    I see your problem, I think the HELP file is obviously in need of updating.

    Injector Aux 7 and 8 are definitely configurable in the software, but what pins are they.

    Are there any wires in PIN positions 109 and 110.

    Even in the latest G4+ software the HELP file is the same and a BASE MAP still allows function control over INJ 7 and 8.

    Sorry I have no experience with this ECU or vehicle.

    I need Simon or Scott to answer this one sorry.

    Regards

    Dave.

  9. Hi JohnRambo,

    I would set the radiator top hose capillary tube thermatic fan switch to activate at 90 deg c.

    I would set the second fan to be activated via the relay from the ECU AUX O/P and also have it activate with the A/CON on so you have an A/CON  condensor fan.

    Have you no spare AUX outputs including any spare injector or ignition outputs to drive the fans.

    Regards

    Dave.

  10. Hi Davidv,

    I was mistaken also, for some reason I thought the team where back next week but they are back now.

    Yes the LINK software etc is really a very good thing, like any product there is always room for improvement, but without feed back and suggestions from people such as yourself products and software just go stagnet.

    And that certainly is definitely not the case with this company LINK, the world really don't know what they are missing out on by using other products,

    Thanks again for your feed back.

    The idea will be passed on.

    Regards

    Dave.

  11. Hi Gerard,

    if you carry out a data log ( preferably a PC log and log ALL PARAMETERS.

    Go to your logging page and save the LOF FILE AS TEST LOG 1 DAVE or what ever you wish.

    You need to then locate where on your computer your ViPEC folder is, I normally set mine up  in  the C DRIVE.

    When you have found your ViPEC folder open the folder and there will be a sub folder that has LOG FILES as it's name.

    Open this folder right click on the log file you wish to send and send to protuning @bigpond.com

    Or you can post it on here just attach file at the bottom of the screen and select the log file from your log file folder.

    Regards

    Dave.

  12. Hi,

    all plugin ECU's have the Knock Control catered for you just need to turn knock control on in the ECU software.

    As for the setup information you are requiring , best to right click on the title and click on WHAT'S THIS, this will open the HELP FILE and advise and explain on how functions etc work.

    If you have anymore questions then ask away.

    As for injector min effective pulse width etc is up to you to try source the information from your injector supplier or GOOGLE.

    If the engine has been tuned on normal fuel and you alter these settings the tune will change.

    Regards

    Dave.
