Tuning module for LinkPlus V14

[Nathan]

Hi I'm looking at buying an engine that is already wired up with a LinkPlus V14 ECU for a car. But I'm looking to use the engine in a boat, which would need re-tuning for the different use. I was wondering if you can still buy a Tuning Module for it? Or would I have to use the PCLink? And if it is the PCLink, are the SerialLink / SmartLinks still available? Thanks Nathan

Hi Nathan.

Serial Links are still available, and you can use a hand controller but why would you?  The actual problem there though is finding them, as Link don't manufacture them anymore. 

Unless you are really lucky in finding one (if you want to go that way), I think you're down to PCLink.  Might be time to find an inverter for the boat

Besides PCLink gives so much more of an over all look at what is going on, I think you would be doing yourself in not to use it if you can... And you can.

Thanks Jurgen

Is there any data logging capabilities for the G1s? Either with or without the PC connected?

One example situation is to download and view the details after a speed run to see what goes on in those 'real life' situations.

Hi Nathan.

Logging on the G1 series is possible with either a Link Display or PCLink.  There is definately no on board logging as you will have figured out already, but PCLink back in those days still had the capability... Isn't that just a cool thing?   

When connected to the ECU and engine running, press CTRL+F7.  This will bring up the logging panel down where the runtime displays are usually.  From there it should be quite apparent how it works.  Have fun.
