Hi Aaron Yes can use the G4+ adapter with the i series vipec. This will allow CAN coms which will let you have dash connected while tuning. And if keen you could also customise the data stream.

Yep should be no problem at all to leave the ECU unplugged for years even.

It is a V series unit you have there so will need http://www.vi-pec.com/software/vts-v4-10-2.1784 before starting the tune be sure to upgrade the firmware to the latest included with the download above.

Yep spot on.

Have put on wish list. It looks like we have had one scoped in the past. In a Lotus.

Yes the ATOM can out put the following OBD function with the OBD upgrade code. Â PID Number Description PID01 Number of CE (Check Engine) Codes PID03 CLL (Closed Loop Lambda) Status PID05 ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) PID06 Short Term Fuel Trim - Bank 1 PID07 Long Term Fuel Trim - Bank 1 PID08 Short Term Fuel Trim - Bank 2 PID09 Long Term Fuel Trim - Bank 2 PID0A Fuel Rail Pressure (gauge) PID0B MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) PID0C Engine Speed PID0D Vehicle Speed PID0E Ignition Timing Advance for #1 Cylinder PID0F IAT (Intake Air Temperature) PID11 Absolute Throttle Position PID13 Number of O2 sensors present PID22 Fuel Rail Pressure PID24 O2 Sensor 1 Equivalence Ratio PID25 O2 Sensor 2 Equivalence Ratio PID33 BAP (Barometric Pressure) PID42 Control Module Voltage PID43 Absolute Throttle Position B PID44 Commanded Equivalence Ratio (Lambda) PID45 Relative Throttle Position PID49 Absolute Pedal Position D PID4A Absolute Pedal Position E PID4C Commanded Throttle Actuator Control PID52 Ethanol Fuel % PID59 Absolute Fuel Rail Pressure PID5C Engine Oil Temperature PID5D Fuel Injection Timing PID61 Drivers Demanded Torque PID62 Actual Engine Torque

Check the power supply has enough power to power up the ECU. You will need around 300mA Blue light should stay on.

Are all the devices sharing the signal? It might be that with all the devices connected the signal is being pulled down. On the V5 what you see is what you get, so no other options there. If the tacho and other devices will accept a coil negative signal you could look at triggering off one coil negative and set cylinder number to 2 on the devices.

You will be able to measure it with a volt meter. If its an amplified signal then you should se a 0-5V signal. This could then be fed directly into the ECU on an AN volt channel.

AS long as you red the information on the firmware changes and check the tune and setting after the upgrade you should be fine. Worst case you can always roll back to the old version.

The current pattern we have decode matches Mode 2. We can look at add the Mode 3 but this will take a bit of time.

Is it a 12V output? Or is the sensor powered by 12V and has a different output?Â

Hi Grant I suspect we have that pattern in there already. Would that be off the 1.6L rover K series engine?

It will need to come into a free Digital input. There will be one that was for the gearbox input. Or through the XS loom would also be fine. The catch will be when the frequency gets too high the speed will drop back to 0 which would reduce the boost.

If you go to http://www.linkecu.com/support/returns-policy this will give you all you need to return the unit for the upgrade. For the manual this can be found http://www.linkecu.com/support/documentation/g1-engine-management-documentation/MY96Manual

Im assuming you dont have two inputs configured to the same sensor option such as two temp channels set as IAT.? If you can email the map through we can try on the bench to replicate. [email protected]

Its an ok device to keep an eye on the noise levels after the tune is done. For tuning there are much better devices out there now. You really want something with a headphone output. Plex tuning, or KnockBox would be my two current picks.

We can take the signal no problem. The main issue is often the ABS wheel will reach to high a frequency at high speed due to the high tooth count. If you are able to reduce the tooth count it will be no problem.

When you are changing the values have you pressed enter and then stored the changes. With a power/key cycle after?

The G4 RX has no onboard knock it needs the KnockBlock as an interface. The Knock block has however been discontinued.

Hi Augusto Can you post your map so we can load it into an ECU on the bench for testing.

You can set it as the load input but really it does not work that well on our units. This is only due to the firmware being totally targeted at MAP as the main load input.

We dropped it as most of our range now offer onboard knock. We are considering a rework to make it more of a dedicated tuning tool.

Will need to come to NZ. Cost is $308nzd + freight Allow a week turnaround
