Invecii Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hi, I would like to using an Aux out channel to trigger my knock alarm light, I hope it can be triggered once knock occur. I see there is a Knock value condition in the GP output parameters. Does anyone know the definition of the knock value in the GP out? or are there any way to set a LED lamp to be knock alarm light? thanks.

Confused Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 I was hoping to do similar - when I had my standard Mitsubishi ECU, the aftermarket community had enabled the ability to flash the Check Engine Light when knock was detected over the defined threshold. Unfortunately, I found that with the Link ECU, there's no way to get it to set an Aux output based on anything other than a static knock level, despite your Knock Target being a table. So, if your Knock Target is 400 at 3000rpm but 600 at 6000rpm, you'll need to choose whether to be told about levels over 400, and then you'll potentially get "falsely" notified of knock at higher RPM, or set your warning for the high RPM knock level, but not be able to be informed about knock levels above your target at lower RPM. What's needed, IMO, is a Knock Level > Knock Target option (and the corresponding Knock Level < Knock Target option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invecii Posted May 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Hi Confused. Thanks for your reply. so do you mean the knock value in the GP output condition is the "Knock level value" ? it's is not a ideal condition to trigger knock light as your description above.
