AbbeyMS Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Quick question regarding GP outputUsing a GP output to run the cooling fans on a drift car , ECU is always powered up once battery cut out is on so the fans still run once the motor is turned off (also running electric water pump)What we want to do is to be able to run the fans via push button switch to run the fans as this clears the drivers compartment very quickly of tyre smoke.Trying to under stand how to use a DI Value1 as SW cond3 on the below GP Output set up I know we can go Switch Logic Cond (1 and 2) Or 3 but the using an digital input as Sw Cond 3 is puzzling me. Any help please thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayGow Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 This will allow the fans to run as you have them set up, OR, on when digital input 1 (your on/off switch) is on. Is that what you're after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbbeyMS Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Jay, no that isnt correct DI isnt Digital input 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayGow Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 That was just an example. Switch Condition 3 "DI Value 1 = ON"means it will turn the Output "ON" when a digital input is "ON". "DI Value = ON" (last line in my example)is where you enter the number of the Digital Input. So if you have the switch on DI 10, last line value would be 10.

Adamw Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Jay, no that isnt correct DI isnt Digital input 1. JayGow's example is the correct use of a digital input status as a condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbbeyMS Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 okay after some thinking and some help yes it is correct just needed to under stand how you told the GP output what Di was being used to control the parameter.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMike Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 The 3rd condition, you select DI as 'on', and then the next selection is the DI 'number', in this case (Jay's example), 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
