Adam Carver Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 I have had some trouble with my link fury talking to my Racepak IQ3 display dashFollowed the directions wrt the CAN setup in Fury and the help fileThe dash is happy with the 230-VM it sees it and uploaded the channels works fineI'm using fury can module 1 which I assume is the lower CUSB on the caseNow the issue I'm having is no data comes to the dash over the canAnd when I plug the dash can CUSB it knocks out the PC link and ecu goes offline unplug it and it reconnects doesn't matter if I cycle power. As long as the dash is connected no PC link. Engine still runs fine thoughOne very odd thing I've noted is and I think is importantThe Vnet module has a 3 pin connector that adapts from the CUSB on the fury to the V net standard flat 3 pin molex plug. If I just plug in just the CUSB cable and leave the molex connector disconnected that is part of the 230vm it still knocks out the PC link so is it a bad cable maybe I would think a cable not plugged into anything wouldn't be able to affect the PC link or am I overlooking something. And I just did the new firmware update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) From what I can see,the vnet adapter #230-VM EFIVIPEC is the old serial only adapter. This is not CAN. The VNet adapter you need if you want to communicate over CAN is 230-VM EFIUCAN. So because you are using serial you cannot have PC Link connected at the same time, you will have to disconnect the dash when you want to tune or disconnect the laptop when you want the dash to work.You will need to set up the Link data stream like below and it should work.

Adam Carver Posted February 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Ah yes. I read on the racepack pdf that but didn't know where to find it. I'll try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Carver Posted February 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) Yep worked straight away thanks. All data shows correctly thanks for the very quick reply Edited February 17, 2017 by Adam Carver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eff xr6t Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 For anyone else looking to run similar setups with Racepak dashes and a link ecu. Don't purchase the Racepak display dash or logger dash that has the standard 5pin v-net connector and 8pin Deutsche connected on the back. If you purchase the Racepak STREET dash it has a can module already built into the dash that can be programmed to most new ecus and I have tested and confirmed it on my link G4+ extreme. 1320MINI, Simon and TechDave 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hi Peter, you will need to give more info, what problem do you have, what model dash, what vnet module and how is it connected... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 Ok, what vnet module are you using? Is it connected via CAN or serial? Can you post your map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Andersson Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) It is the 230 VM adapter Can not serialG4+ Edited March 15, 2017 by Peter Andersson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hi Peter,I see you have CAN transmit set to 100Hz, our help suggests 50Hz for this dash. Have you tried that?As for the "AFR", our dash stream transmits Lambda. If you want AFR displayed you will have to scale it at the racepak end.

Peter Andersson Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 I have tryed 50 100. 200 no differens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 We have many customers running these with no problems so it must be some set up problem. I dont see anything wrong in your ECU settings apart from that transmit rate. You are on quite an old firmware so you should upgrade to the latest 5.6.5. Also check that your Racepak is on latest firmware. I vaguely remember there was a problem with some of their early vnet adaptors but I'm pretty sure it was the serial versions and not the CAN version.

Simon Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Hi PeterAs we have a IQ3 here but not the CAN adapter would it be an option to send the CAN module in and we can try inhouse to see if we get the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Andersson Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hi Boys , Just got my Dash back from service at Racepak ( can module to ) and the problems is still there . It works little longer now about 20 seconds and shuts down for about 1 - 2 seconds ( the RPM display ) Tryed 50hz doesnt work at all tryed 100 and 200 no differens Running firmware 5.6.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 can you attach your map, I will take a look. What is the part number of your Vnet module? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi Peter, All the settings in your map appear to be ok, I dont have too many other ideas. If you want to attach your dash config file I will take a quick look over that too. This dash/vnet module was quite popular so it has been proven to work successfully many times previously. If I dont see anything wrong in your dash config would you be prepared to send your dash and Vnet cable down to us in New Zealand (or even to our UK office for forwarding to me)?

Adamw Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Hi Peter, I dont see anything wrong in your dash config. Im sorry I cant put many logical reasons to your symptoms, my feeling is leaning towards the Vnet module being faulty or programmed incorrectly (I know you already said its been serviced but I dont know what that involves of if it is tested in any way). Tomorrow when I have a bit more time I will give you a screenshot of a new can set up we can try with a "fake" RPM signal only transmitted to see if we can get any other clues.

Peter Andersson Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I had Racepak online , remote help They say problem at the Link side But you can talk to Chris Havill at racepak [email protected] I allso tryed to get them send you the Can module for testing but no luck They say its replaced with a new universal unit I post this video to see if any outher users recognizes this problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Hi Peter, Can you load the attached map into your ECU. I have set this up to send a continuous 3000RPM and 300KPa MAP signal to the dash. You will not need the engine running - just ignition on. Only these two channels will be live, nothing else will show. Please let me know if your Dash reads RPM & MAP continuously with the ecu running this file (engine not running). If that seems to work then next I want you to start the engine and check we still get continuous RPM/MAP (they will be fixed at 3000/300). That will help us eliminate some of the possibilities.

Peter Andersson Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Yes , Data is fixed both with engine of and running 300 / 3000 NO drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Ok, thanks. Here's another test file to try just like you did above, in this file I have made RPM and MAP live values (they will just count up/cycle automatically) and I have added in all the other channels to try to load up the bus more. Run it for a few minutes with engine off, if that looks ok, then run it for a few minutes with the engine running. Let me know what you observe.
