1993 Mazda/Eunos 1600 MX5/Roadster (B6ZE) - Knock control possible?

Recently fitted a Link G4x PNP v3.1 to my 1993 Roadster with Toyota ae101 ITB's everythings going great so far and really happy with the software, the car runs well, really well infact and drives like an oem car for the most part which is says a lot about how good this ecu and the software is!

Now I'm road tuning at the moment, VE tables coming along and I've now enabled CLL. Currently have a reasonably conservative ignition table in for the moment, whilst I know roughly what numbers it should have (and I plan to get it dyno tuned at some point too) it would be nice to add knock control for peace of mind.

I've wired my Toyota TPS and LSU4.9 Lambda sensor up via the G4x expansion ports which work perfectly, thought I might be able to do the same with a knock sensor but can't see a way of selecting an input for it within the software if I do. Is this something that could be fixed with an update to the pclink software or is it a hardware limitation here?

If its not possible I guess theres the knocklight that would give me some form of feedback, but would be nice to have trims.

Unfortunately the adapter board on this ecu is quite old and doesnt have the knock input available on any user-accessible external pin.  If you wanted to return it to our UK office they could add a couple of wire links to make the knock input available.  

Sorry I kinda had a lot happening inbetween when I posted and now so forgot to follow up on this, that might be a good option to be honest, theres a good reason why I used crimps for all my wiring, my soldering iron is old, and my solder usually looks like ass so rather not mess up such a lovely board. How would I go about reaching out to the UK team to facilitate this? What would be the kind of turn around on something like this?

 

Many thanks.
