1.1.80 firmware
« on: July 20, 2010, 09:39:40 pm »
figured there were enough new features to warrant a thread  ;D

so i've uploaded 1.1.80 to the car, and its running well. However i can't seem to access the new injector angle settings which are supposed to be found in the motorsports menu?

vemtune is still saying my config is 1.1.77 - which i may believe relates to the ini file available

there doesn't seem to be a 1.1.80 ini file anywhere to be found

do these come with VT? or the firmware

most likely i just need to be patient and wait a few days for things to be sorted out. just anxious  :P

According to http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=GenBoard%2FUnderDevelopment%2FFirmwareChanges
1.1.80 is experimental.  TEST WITH CARE - and don't expect any of the standard ini files to work out the box with it.

I have also 01.01.1980 firmware in my car. But missing 1.1.80vemstune.ini. Hope it's ready soon. I have a 1980 Ascona B Rallycross with a 2.7 Volvo engine :)

This will be tried on a Volvo 2.7 litre N/A engine (250 hp in engine dyno) when it is ready. Very interesting work!

Got a promise from developers that they'll make a nightly build of vemstune today evening -including the new (experimental) 1.1.80 ini file.
 :)

-edit:

Here it is:

Injection angle can now be set on cars with camsync.

[1.1.80] - release candidate

    * easily configurable injection end-angle (angular position when the injector output switches off) in function of RPM
          o mostly matters at low load loadsites with aggressive cam engines. With a port-injected audi 20-VT (with cyl1 injector output in same position as cyl1 ignition output) smoothest idle and best throttle-reaction was achieved around 300 ATDC = 420 BTDC (was not very sensitive to precise adjustment, a window of at least +-30 degrees)
          o secondary-trigger need to be configured as cam-sync for inj-angle to work properly. Without camsync (eg. with a missing tooth wheel) after startup, the chance for the sweet half is 50% at best.

If you don't absolutely need the injection angle function I suggest to go back to 1.1.78.
There's a problem with TPS refreshing in 1.1.79 and 1.1.80, not a fatal problem in my experience, but sometimes it makes the engine jerking a bit.

just by loading the latest nightly version and 1.1.80, vemstune crashed after a couple of minutes.

I'm running the 1.1.80 on a car, using the 8-11-2010 VemsTune.

The firmware is working well.

I might have used the 1.1.78 instead, but there was no default config for that version in the folder.

The VemsTune has many bugs, it is often slow or very slow to refresh screens.

Backs up your findings, I'm waiting until this is fixed in a later version. TPS refreshing would be an issue for me, is this going to be fixed in the next release?
